Tigerlily Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 this question has probably allready been asked but couldn't find it so sorry if i repeat! Is feeding Tigerlily baby food, the human kind, a good idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Sure its an excellent idea, I do it all the time, but I use the simple vegetables not the other concoctions. Josey loves the butternut squash and sweet potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nims Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I was thinking of doing the same with Indy as a treat once a week! Nims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Why limit it to just once a week, you can give it to them every day if you like, just vary the flavor, be sure to use a small spoon and then you will have him prepared for when you may have to give meds by spoon. I mix a little in with the oatmeal I fix her for breakfast or some do a nighttime treat before they go to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Baby food is really good. Just make sure to read the lable. Some of the "flavors" have sugar and other add in's. I too add baby food to the morning mash to give varity. Both birds love it! B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzzique Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I have a ton of rawhide that I even died but so far Alex is totally uninterested. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I got Josey some rawhide dog bones and gave her one and she promptly dropped it but I amnot giving up yet, no siree, not me.:huh: :cheer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzzique Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Any of the fruit flavors. Though he isn't big on bananna. He also loves the sweet potatos and squash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nims Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I gave Indy some baby food (carrots and corn) mixed in with some oatmeal and she gobbled it up. I think she ate too much as she was regurjitating and then ATE IT! :sick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerlily Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Well Tigerlily is now enjoying an almost daily feed of baby food which of course she was a bit dubious of at first and to my suprise baby food doesn't taste that bad eitherB) when she takes a big bite from her new spoon (plastic) her eyes quickly pinpoint for a split second which i'm asuming is a good sign? anyway, I love these new meal times together and its even better knowing that Tigerlily is getting many new healthy ingrediants this way as i'm not known for my cooking skillsB) So a big thankyou again to this forum from me and Tigerlily {Feel-good-000200BB} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 LOL - Yes, there eyes pinning, rolling etc. when taking that first bite reminds me of a human tasting something and mmmmming, yum yumming along with facial expressions of how good it is. :-) When eating something I know my Grey loves, I'll taste it and say mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm GOOD!! One of these days he'll say it with true understanding. The next thing to teach him will be "Yuck, it tastes like crap". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danmcq Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 LOL Judy, When Kim does cook, it's ALWAYS the most fabulous meal she ever made. ;-) :-) I must encourage that very rare behaviour at all costs!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmaholm Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Ack! I think we just got hit by a Drive By Spamming. Anywho dragging us back on topic. Joey doesn't seem to approve with baby food so far and thinks it more fun to grab the spoon and try and dump the food. -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
