I got it based on the reviews and she is hiding it all in her bedding in bottom of cage. Does that mean she doesn't like it or will eat it later?

My girls have always stashed their food. I'm assuming it's where the term 'pack-rat' came from. =) I always feed fresh fruits /veggies as well.

Mine did that at first but now they just eat it. Rats are hoarders by nature and usually hide their food like they are waiting for an apocalypse. It took mine a few weeks and I thought they were still hoarding it till I saw them eating it one day. Now they empty their bowls more often and really seem to like it.

My girls do that as well they tend to be hoarders. LoL sometimes they go back and eat it, sometimes not. My are a bit spoiled and get fruits and veggies as well i usually put a hand ful of the Oxbow in their dish in the morning. That way while I am gone diring the day, they can snack. They get fruts and veggies at night.

Our rats do this all the time with the Oxbow, which we add to our own rat food mix. It means they like it and want to make sure they have enough for later! :-) Just fish it out and put it back in the bowl.

That is odd, My Rats just eat it they don't hide the food. Will she eat treats? I would be worried she doesn't feel well.

The powder does have a distinctive odor (kind of fishy), but I only notice it when I sprinkle it on wet food. Of course a cat's sense of smell is better than mine. I think she will probably eat it since she won't really know it's there.

It is in a large plastic bag WITH TWO SNAPS ON EITHER SIDE...I keep it in the refrig. well at first it was softer then it is now..the bag was very large...and the way it was cut there are muscle strings that worry me about my poodle (mini) choking on so I pull them out...He likes the taste but I am not sure I will order this item again.....:O(

Recently my one cat has been very finicky about this food, too. Sometimes it has a much thinner texture as well as the stronger smell, and she isn't a fan.I never had that issue with this food coming from the local pet store, but I've had it off and on with shipments from Amazon. Maybe it's being subjected to disparate temperatures in shipping?

I think that the secret item is a little book about your Stuffie. It tends to differ between the animal that you bought! I hope this helped.

My two year old schoodle doesn't like anything, but her puppy food (the very expensive one), but she gets desperate and will eat this dog food. I would give my puppy the BEST food you can find that he likes....he isn't a puppy all that long.

Yes,I had the same problem.I literally had to push it in & hold it upright then force it down her throat to shoot it down.She spit it up a few times.I honestly have to say it was a STRUGGLE!My vets' assistant recommended this bacon putty,comes in a jar!I was willing to try anything!My cat really doesn't like meat,but she loves it.I wrap the putty around the pill,along with her cat treat!She loves it.No struggles,no trying to force it down!Been on this for a year.

We put it at the bottom of the cage and she was very happy in it. she had several eggs the first time she used it. It was easier to handle if we had to move or view inside. We took it out after they were big enough.

Our 75 lb lab didn't and she eats everything. She did lick the inside of it but couldn't get her teeth around it and couldn't take it off.

I don't store it in the container once I buy it - it goes right into the feed or a shaker jar I have - I have no idea but really? They aren't eating much of it and I truly wouldn't worry.

I drop the capsule in with the dog food and she eats it. If she did not, I would take apart the capsule and sprinkle it over the food. Or you could cut open the capsule if you can't get it apart and sprinkle it over food. I also give my dog pills, I give one in a handfull of dogfood and hand feed it to her as a snack. And poof, it is gone. Good luck.

Although I don't have any experience with bunnies I can tell you that my Russian dwarf hamster doesn't track this anywhere. He does get a few pieces in his food bowl from time to time but nothing to make a major mess. It doesn't take a lot to cover his cage, I do give him a little more in certain places because he likes to dig and bury but other than that just enough to cover the bottom and keep him warm is enough.

I sprinkle it on her wet food. She gets wet in the morning and dry in the evening. I guess you could try different things. She may eat it plain.

I would be concerned that he/she might be able to slither out the bottom, which is just corrugated cardboard not attached to the cage. I guess you could reinforce it somehow, maybe with masking tape, so that it does not separate.

I just bought some for my pup and opened it up and tried a kibble. I have been a vegetarian all my life, but the ingredients looked so good I figured I should try it. It smells like fish and chicken and veggies - not so much kibble. She seems to think it's better than meat sticks :)

Since my cat has been eating this I have noticed that she is nt pucking as much. We also have seen she does not eat her food like she did before. She seems like she is actually getting full now. Mind you we have her food set to feed her at set times a day now but she is leaving food now. Where she was not before. She was getting sick all the time now maybe once a week or every other. I hope this helps.

I would say it is fine if you know he won't eat it. The bottom line is that Play Doh is always a little messy, but let it dry and you can easily vacuum the small crumbs.
