Tantilising Treats Are Restricted!
Dear Dr Basil
I am seeking your expert guidance on a rather perplexing issue that has been bothering me lately. As a feline, I have a deep affection for treats and tasty snacks, which are essential for my overall well-being. However, my human staff seems to be oblivious to this fact and have been neglecting my dietary needs.
Despite my best efforts, I have been unsuccessful in persuading them to provide me with the treats that I need. I have tried meowing incessantly and batting at their legs, but it seems that my charm is not enough to sway them. Even sitting next to the treat jar as a subtle hint has not yielded any positive results.
I am at a loss as to what I should do next, Dr Bssil. How can I make them understand that these treats are critical to my diet and that I require them to be readily available and on paw to meet my needs?
Yours despurrately in need of more treats,
A Frustrated Feline

This is my Expert Reply
Today I use the colour orange, as this is renowned for inciting creativity, and I feel this weeks purroblem needs as much creativty as possible! Therefore being the purrfect choice for this particular purroblem.
Dear Frustrated Feline,
I can sincerely empathize with your predicament and the frustration that comes with being unable to communicate your needs to your human staff. However, there are a few strategies that mew can employ to retrain them and ensure that your dietary requirements are met.
Firstly, mew could try to teach them by example. Show them how much mew enjoy your treats by eating them in front of them and purring contentedly, and don't forget to add a few supurr snorgles, mew know that epically cute sound that melts hearts. This will help them understand the importance of providing mew with the treats mew require.
Secondly, mew could try to communicate with them in a more direct way. For instance, mew could try to make eye contact with them while meowing or pawing at the treat jar. This will help them understand that mew are trying to communicate with them and that mew require their immediate attention in this despurrate moment of need.
Lastly, mew could try to appeal to their emotional side by being more affectionate towards them. Show them how much mew care for them by rubbing your head against theirs, cuddling with them, and purring loudly, do add the supurr cute snorgles too. This will help them understand the importance of providing mew with the treats mew require and will strengthen your bond with them.
In conclusion, I would advise mew to be patient and persistent in your efforts to retrain your human staff. With time and effort, they will come to understand the importance of providing mew with the tasty morsels mew need.
Yours most sincerely
Dr. Basil

  2. Patience is not a virtue I have Doctor. I try the purring and staring and that gets me nothing but sore throat and dry eyes. Precious
