Hi everybuddy!
Gizmo's still doing good - she sounds similar to yous ig Alona - very calm and friendly. She did bite me the other day but it was my own fault - I put my hand in front of her face and I think she thought I was feeding her. She didn't break the skin or anything.
Anyway, I just had a uqestion about foods, since this hasn't been brought up in a while. :-) She loves her collard and turnip greens, but she won't touch the squash mixture I've been giving her the last few days. I chopped it up really small but she just eats around it to the greens - actually a very humorous process to watch. I just wondered what other veggies might taste similar to the greens that she might eat better. Also she seems to be a light eater to begin with - she won't eat if she thinks I'm watching her and sometimes she won't even eat greens from my hand. I've tried various other mixtures but I don't remember the exact components - I know I've given her green beans, papaya, carrots, kale, and some other stuff but she's never really "dug in" to any of it. She also won't really touch pellets. Somebody help! :-)
P.S. I am taking her to the vet today, partly for reasons of paranoia and partly to show her off :-)
