Hi Feets, yes Chip seems to get worse the older she gets, although I must admit she wouldn't even go out the door when we first had her if it looked like rain, now she'll go...but only if we take the car. :) Banned food? crikey she'd phone up the RSPCA herself if we banned any.The only thing she doesn't eat are cockles, even then she tries but has to spit them out eventually.We had the workmen in a few years ago and who should I see troting down the garden with a bag of sandwiches, little miss butter wouldn't stay long enough to melt. Then gave the big eyes...no not me.
