A couple of weeks ago I got a message from a human who works with a company called Lincoln Bark. They make dog treats, so I was wondering what they had for a kitty like me! She explained that they have something called Kitty Sprinkles, which humans supposedly can put on cat food for “finicky” eaters. My human jumped right in when she heard that because I hate most of the food she sets in front of me. What can I say? I am discerning, very discerning, when it comes to food. I have a delicate palate, you know.
The company offered to send me some samples and I had the choice between chicken liver, salmon and shrimp. No one here is particularly into shrimp (shocking, I know), so I requested chicken liver and salmon. They are pure protein with a touch of rosemary thrown in — very simple!
To make this an honest-to-goodness taste test, my human dished up a can of food she knows I do not like! Sorry, but I have never been a fan of this venison-flavored cat food.
Boodie, of course, was all, “If you’re not eating that, can I have it?” My human had to shoo her away.
Then she sprinkled some of the chicken liver flavored Kitty Sprinkles on the yukky food.
Wow, I could not believe the change! It tasted awesome! Or at least the part of the cat food touched by the Kitty Sprinkles tasted awesome.
Sorry Boodie, you will have to wait your turn!
Sparkle… I have to laugh out loud when I see Boodie’s face ( jealous one ) and if you look right at the front of your screen you will see another tortured face who is on diet…Yes it’s ME !!!
What a difference those sprinkles made Sparkle! We bet Boodie will try and hide the sprinkle packet so she isn’t deprived of your leftovers again!
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Wow! Did your mommy have to keep sprinkling it on?
Hmm I’m now interesting I would like to try it as well! 🙂
Luna
cool! maybe the mom should order that for Sammy. He hates all gooshy foods
We should make Mom check those out!!

Magic sprinkles! So, did you eat all the noms?
well huh….that is good to know about for those finicky moms and kittens we get here sometimes….gonna have to go check that out!!
We’ve been using Whole Life DeVour powder for cats for about 3 years!
They’re made by WholeLife, which is fairly local to us (Pittsfield, MA), and we got them for Kylie, the super-picky eater in our family. We love using “sprinkles” on our food!
Sparkle you and Boodie are so gorgeous it was hard for us to take our eyes off you to read about the sprinkles!!! WTG we are so glad the sprinkles passed the Sparkle test.
As much as I hate to admit it I’ve never met any food I didn’t like. mOL
Hugs madi
well WELL! I may have to make mommy buy ME some.

Sprinkles for finniky eaters sounds like a good idea but not needed over here. We eat everything and anything.
We’re back to commenting now. We missed coming by each.day….. HH is continuing to paint but slower, so we should be able to do both from here on. YAY….
Have a great day.
Hugs, Max, Bugsy and Knuckles
WE might have to try some of that too.We have a lot of finniky eaters around here too. It sure looks like it works if you like it Sparkle. Thanks for letting us know about it.
I’m so glad you shared this, Sparkle Puss–I have a very finnicky little kitty girl who might just start eating more if I used this! Thank you!
We had to laff at Boodie’s expression. She does NOT look happy about waiting. No, not at all.
We wonder if Faraday would like those – he sure is picky about HIS food too. Hrm…
that’s what we call a fun taste test. Your human must have been thrilled to see you eating something you don’t like.

We came back!

Sounds YUMMY!!! We’ve heard of these before but haven’t known anyone to have taste tested them. : )

Where can we get some sprinkles? Fiona almost always buries her canned food. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at http://www.thecatonmyhead.com, Lily Olivia, Misty May, Mauricio, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
That is such an interesting product…and might be quite useful at times!
Wow, that’s pretty amazing actually!
We like our wet foods pretty well, but it is good to know that there is an improvement that can be made to them.
Is that like humans putting cheese on over cooked veggies to get their children to eat them?
Those sprinkles are like magic! We will only eat one type of wet food and sometimes it doesn’t smell exactly as it usually does and we won’t touch it. Mum calls us the Finicky Fusspots, but we are like you, discerning diners.
That is pretty impressive. I wonder if there is apple flavor?
Sparkles
That sounds like a definite paws up then!
Do they have mouse or bird flavored sprinkles?=^Y^=
hahaha..that is funny Cat Street Boyz..mol
Well that’s pretty clever especially since it really tastes good! We don’t like the good foods we are supposed to eat so we could use some sprinkles too! Hope Boodie and Binga got to try it also!
PeeS: We hope your human’s boyfriend’s tour is going well!
I need to try that, because I too hate about 99% of the food my mom puts out! (Or maybe she should just sprinkle my food with Cheez-It crumbs…)
P.S. None of us likes shrimp or venison either!
We’re gonna hafta try those sprinkles, Sparkle!
Love the look on your face in the third picture! Yes, the packages do look like dogs. I don’t like shrimp either.
BTW, we were the only kitties I saw that took on Spencer’s human yesterday. That marriage is doomed.
WOW! Where do you get that stuff??? Oh, wait–that was my problem BEFORE the Outrage. I eat more now. But still….
It would be interesting to see if Oui Oui would eat any of those sprinkles. She is the ultimate taste tester. Here’s a partial list of what she won’t eat: Beef, chicken, salmon, “white” fish, sardines, mackerel, cheese, anything with shreds, lumps or gravy – including tuna, turkey, liver and giblets. There are others, but its late.
This would be a cool product to try…for those of my family who are picky! Mooch, the outsider, eats everything. And poor Boodie-her look says it all 🙂
