Treat Faces

Today I would like to share a special secret with you: I call it "Treat Face." These are the special looks you can use that are guaranteed to get you delicious treats! First, here is the basic Treat Face. Make your eyes real BIG and tilt your head a little to the side.
If this does not work, you can throw in any special tricks you have learned. I like to use my High Five paw. I wave my paw around all the time.
If that does not work, the last and foolproof option is Treat Face with High Five and Big Smile. This is guaranteed to work! I got EIGHT treats for this session!

  2. Mom would've surrendered the entire bag of Temtayshuns for that "Treat Face with High Five and Big Smile", Daisy!

    She's pretty much putty in our paws! :-D

  6. Daisy, you look like you're smiling in the first pic.

    Tofu does the high-five trick, too! Well, except it's more like raising his paw up in the air and grabbing the hand with the treat and pulling it towards him. He raises his paw now whenever he wants something!

  7. We thinks your Mom needs to give treat dispensing instructions to our Mom the most we ever get is 3. ~S,S,C & F

    PS: Don't tell the cats but I get tons of treats at Dog Obedience school. ~Fenris

  10. Wow, I'll have to remember that when I want treats!

  11. JJ's guaranteed treat move is your face #1 combined with either standing on her back legs while rubbing my knee with her face; or reaching up and trying to bat the laptop keyboard while I'm typing. :-) I'll take a treat out of my pocket and throw it across the room - at least she gets some exercise that way! :-)

  17. Thank you Daisy. I have printed these pictures for "zoeys daily guide to life". I was sure to include your words with the pictures I printed. Each morning I review my daily guide to ensure I play by the rules, do what is expected of me, and so on and so forth. This is Guide No. 6 which will be invaluable for review and study, it will help me get through my day. Your friend, Zoey

    ReplyDelete
  32. Well done Daisy. I would have given you more than 8 treats for that face and paw too. Good job

    ReplyDelete
  33. 8 treats? If I give my kitties that many treats they get a tummy ache and do the barf thing...You are looking cute as a button in those pics...

    ReplyDelete
  34. Daisy, you are a pro! 8 treats??? I'm not sure we've had that many all summer. I might come and live with you.

    Love,
    Tazo

  35. Daisy, you can do cute like no other! How could Mommie resist that face? You certainly earn all those treats sweetie.
    Have a great day!

  36. Our mom tries the big eyes & head tilts and other variations on dad when she wants something.
    She has a pretty good success rate too!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Wow, we can see how that could be quite effective. Humans are very tuned to cues like that.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Those are good tips. Since I am not a snuggle kitty, All I have to do is rub up against her ans ask very nicely!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Where shall I mail your treats to Daisy?

    ReplyDelete
  40. I recognize those poses. I do not even have to shake the can. If I open that cupboard door I instantly have three faces just like that looking up at me.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Daisy-face, I canNOT believe you have to MAKE any faces to get treats. Your face, au naturel is surely enough!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Wow, we will have to perfect a treat face!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Daisy, this is certainly your area of expurrtise (amongst others)! You are so good at anything you do -- and this is one of them.

    You must enjoy lots of treats all the time! Good going!

    ReplyDelete
  44. No doubt about it, you know how to get things done!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Whoa! Eight treats!! That is a good payoff for your hard work doing the treat face tricks.

    Pimp and Moo have their own tactics... But they start out with very basic skills -- like yelling at the pantry where they know the Greenies are until I give in. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  46. Daisy, you are very clever. I think I will try some of your tricks on the publicist to see if I can get more treats.

    ReplyDelete
  47. That is a very good treat face. Wewill have to practice ours.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Those are all great treat faces! I would have given you some for each one!!

    ReplyDelete
  49. Wow 8 treats wtg Daisy girl!! Rascal and Puma still can't believe all of the wonderful things you can do.

    But, they don't like treats either. But, they both just purred to me to say Yayyyy for you!!:-)

    ReplyDelete
  50. Oh goodness! Daisy sure has her game down pat. I hardly think ANYONE could hold out treats with that little act.

    ReplyDelete
  51. If those don't work - a good nip on the ankle will get you some attention. After the nipping you need to look at your food bowl or run quickly to it.

    ReplyDelete
  52. MY method is to sit by the food bowl spot and jus stare calmly at The Big Thing. Ayla and Izas method is to listen for when I get some an then come runnin over.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Who could ever resist your pritty face, big eyez an super smile?

    ReplyDelete
  55. That is funny. I should give you a treat also. You did a good job.

    ReplyDelete
  56. WOW!!! We are going to have to try those out on the weekends. We get treats each morning before Meowm goes to her jobbie, but we need them on weekends too!

    ReplyDelete
  57. I do the high five, too, bit it's to try and get the treat out of Mummy's hand!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Those are great tips Daisy! Our mommy would hand over all our treats to you for that high five and smile!

    ReplyDelete
  59. Hobbes has finally learned that if he comes when his name is called, you get a couple of treats. You should see him scale an 8 foot fence for a yummy! It's pretty funny to see.

    ReplyDelete
  60. We'll start with the basic Treat Face, and then go from there. Thanks, Daisy!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Wow, I do believe that is the best treat face I have ever seen...seriously!

    ReplyDelete
  62. I would give you treats for those sweet faces and tricks too!

    ReplyDelete
  63. yep, you learned all the right tricks.
    Also, meowing really sweet and rubbing a bit on the wall then looking up then over to the bowl...
    or just screaming relentlessly until you get treats to be quiet

  64. That is such a cute face, Daisy - and the paw just makes it better! We don't think we can be as cute as you are (but we are good at getting treats anyway!)

    ReplyDelete
  71. Prettiest treat face I've ever seen ! xxx

    ReplyDelete
  72. You know what I really miss? Before my mommy and daddy had people kids, they used to say "it's time" and me and my sister would run into the room and cuddle with them. Now we are not allowed to sleep in the room. Mommy told me she really misses that, too.

    Sadie
