I’ve taken to eating these melba toast snacks at night before bed, because usually my tummy just starts growling when I want to be snoring.
Well of course, all three bunnies are in the room with me in their respective habitats. And just like the adorable new ad at the top of the page (now that’s a weird statement…an adorable ad?!) the minute they all hear the ‘crinkle’ of the plastic bag in the box, they are all up and begging. (well not so much Mimzy, he hasn’t really begged for anything but blueberries and I’ve had to totally cut those back, so he doesn’t think mum has anything he wants anymore)
Now I read the ingredients. Just wheat crackers with a little sea salt and no yeast and Fiver is REALLY giving me the googly eyes, but not saving me anything on car insurance….so I break off a TEENSY piece for him to try. Like fingernail size. He immediately zips back into his pen and begins to crunch away. Then it gets quiet very quickly. I look over, and apparently it didn’t taste good enough, because it’s lying in a dejected heap on the floor of his pen.
I was kind of surprised, he really is not into anything for snacks but the old fashioned APD veggie hearts, which are made differently now and give him runny stools, so I am wheedling out itsy-bitsy bites of my last bag of these for him to have after his cleanings and don’t know what I’m going to do when I run out of them. Fiver doesn’t like apples, bananas or any other normal healthy bunny treat…just these old cookies. And now I can rule out crackers as well. (yes I know these are on the ‘bad’ list, but he wanted his curiosity satisfied)
Good thing too. I don’t feel like sharing. Not that any of my bunnies NEED anything to put more ounces on. *nods*
