yes he is very particular about what he will touch and often dismisses things straight away without looking, trying or touching. he hates anything rubbery textured or crumbly like cake. he does seem to get a bad belly im wondering if that would also go with his not eating. he also likes to put food he likes on his feet maybe it feels nice to him.(gud job hes feet are clean) ANd yes thank you i will look at that article now... i hope it is just a general faze as hes quite hyperactive and normally needs food little and often hes losing weight. we are on wsiting list to see a dietician. hes also very fussy with brands. thank u both for replying. :-)
