Subject: Re: [ferrethealth] safe treats
It's pretty easy - meat and meat-based treats. :-) Fresh meats, cooked meats, dried meats (but without all the salt used in jerky for humans), baby food (meat), whole prey (if they go for it), anything like that. Sometimes they want some of my ham and cheese hoagies, but the salt in processed lunch meats isn't good either so they only get a small bite. The occasional lick or two of ice cream or milk/whole cream won't hurt, and yeah, I've given them the option of the occasional tiny piece of vegetable or fruit. Anything that is not meat I give only in very moderated amounts and mostly just because they won't leave me eat my meal in peace. They love licking the bowl clean when I eat cereal or have strawberries with cream. :-)
The best treat, IMHO, is your time and attention. :-)
