If I Gotta Diet, Give Me Some of That Good Stuff!

You must wonder why I haven't been posting lately. Now I can tell you. I was in a foul mood after we got back from the vet, then to top it off, my folks put me on a diet. At first I wasn't sure why I was getting different food, but I sure did like some of it. Some of it I refused to eat. Seems they bought a variety of the new high protein stuff to see which I preferred.

Let me tell you, I love the seafood stuff, but don't ever try to feed me something called "pot pie" again! That stuff was nasty. Now I've even gotten used to the dry food they bought for me and not only have I lost a few ounces, but I'm as frisky as a kitten again.

I'm not eating any less, just better for me food. I guess this stuff fills me up better, Not only does it have real seafood of all kinds, but it has vegetables and apples and such in it. I'm not overly crazy about the carrots, but I can usually work around them. And if I accidentally do eat some, it's all mixed in with things like New England Boil, Surf and Turf, and Ocean Breeze. I even like the Thanksgiving Day Dinner with turkey, green beans, carrots, apples, cranberries and blueberries. Who knew this stuff could taste so good? It's all real food like lobster and sardines instead of filled with fillers and lots of carbohydrates. It may cost more than the cheap supermarket stuff, but I'm worth it!!! Besides, I don't eat all that much.


And no, I don't intend to go on and on about my healthy food, but I will keep readers posted on how the weight loss goes. Maybe my she-person will post a picture when I get slim and trim. As you can tell from the photo (above), I'm quite an armload.

Right now I've got to make a mad dash to the window and chase the birdies away from the feeder. I'm a real terror now that I've got all this energy, plus I'm losing weight every time I fly up the back of the sofa and leap at the window.


Now, if only we can find some good tasting people food for my she-person so she can diet along with me. And no, I'm not sharing mine!
