Kumani's Princess Particular routine is getting out of hand.

This morning Dylan opened a can of salmon food and a can of chicken
food.

Kumani wandered around crying, making sad noises because she got
salmon and that's not good enough.  She will only eat Grilled Chicken
(marinated or pate are not acceptable).

Dylan quickly swapped it from chicken.

Then she went out in the hall, crying and circling.

Dylan moved the bowl out into the hall.

Then she ate it.

"I want chicken, or I shan't eat it."
"I want it in the low bowl, or I shan't eat it."
"I want it in the hall, or I shan't eat it."

"Do it, or I shan't eat anything at all!"

And we do it.  Because she HAS starved herself.  And she cries
pathetically, like we're monstrous beasts who are neglecting a poor,
starving little kitten, just because SHE is so much of a princess that
she'd rather starve herself than eat something that isn't precisely
how she likes it!

Adding insult to injury, about 10 minutes later she threw up a
hairball--and soft food--all over the bedroom floor.

who buys a 12-can case of Fancy Feast, 4 of which are Grilled Chicken,
plus 4 individual cans of Grilled Chicken to ensure enough for our
little Princess!
