<DIV>Well, Ben is still making us jump through hoops to get him to eat. He
was always a little picky about eating, but since Charlie left, he has turned
into a monster. The old standbys are no longer good enough for him. He now
gets varied additives to his kibble. He's gotten Italian sausage with
marinara sauce, chicken picatta with lemon caper sauce, sausage and cheese
with bacon fat, and yesterday Kathy made him his personal meat loaf. I
think he is no longer fussy, but becoming a gourmet.</DIV>
