And the variety! Not to mention the health claims, pet treats, pet vitamins etc. It's a very expensive business to feed your animals these days. We love them and would do anything for them, and pet food companies know this.<br />When I was very young we had a cat, a dog and a galah. Pet quality meat and bones were bought from the butcher very cheaply, they were off cuts that couldn't be sold for human consumption. I don't remember where we go galah food from. The dog and cat also had any leftovers from the table. They were healthy and happy. <br />Nowadays table scraps are not recommended in case your pet chokes on a bone or something.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-84867153522425198172012-11-07T18:49:58.396+08:002012-11-07T18:49:58.396+08:00Our Precious is also spoilt!!

She just knows she is the boss.<br />I remember we once had a cat that would drink from the toilet back in the day when nothing was added to the toilet water thank goodness.<br />I would find it almost impossible not to have a pet in our home, a cat for preference although we have also had some wonderful doggie friends too. We are too old to care for a dog now though much to MOH's sorrow. He loves Precious as much as I do but he did so love it when we had a dog.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-5386373621342479252012-11-06T12:52:13.952+08:002012-11-06T12:52:13.952+08:00I remember all those changes too.

And milk was a treat.<br />Our current pair have water always available, though Jazz also liked licking the floor of the shower and drinking from the toilet. They do have cat biscuits, small helpings of raw meat (kangaroo) each day, and the occasional can.
