Slipper issue

Barney has visited and stayed for a sleepover - he's such a happy little lad and, of course, William enjoys the company.  There is, however, one thing that Barney LOVES and that's to get a shoe (or in my case on this occasion my Slipper).  Fine, but getting it back is sometimes a negotiation.  Fairly easily resolved with a TREAT, but until then I do try to 'persuade' Barney to let me have the item back. 

It's okay, I did achieve the Slipper removal - and no, he wasn't hanging onto the slipper because of the sparkly cats, he's like this with any shoe.

This short clip shows how determined he can be - click the pic

There must be something really special about your slippers (other than the cute sparkly cats!)

Robin....perhaps there is, but Graham says anything to do with my feet, should come with a health warning ⚠️ πŸ˜‚

He certainly is determined to have that slipper :)
We use the treat trick to relieve Tilly of her "possessions".

You have to give him and "A" for determination!
Sakura LOVES to put her whole head in her daddies shoes when he gets home from work. I say "Ewwwww!"

I've wondered about little Barney! so glad to see him again.

Eileen.....it's amazing the amount of psychology that goes into owning a pet 🀣

Sue....I think he's almost at University level these days, he certainly wasn't going to give up easily 🀣

Tammy....bless him, he did give up eventually...I actually had to start trying to negotiate the stairs, when he decided enough was enough! 🀣

Tammy....glad you enjoy these little clips, makes them worth adding - the new header wasn't quite as good in outcome as I'd hoped, but it will do for now. I really do need to get it looking more professional, if only for my ocd! 🀣
