How often do you leave the dish in? Mine gets it twice a week and still goes straight for it.

The size recommendations really have moved. What I was told years ago would be considered cruel now.

No point needed. This is exactly the post people need to see in week two when they think it is not working.

Watch the salt content on those. Some brands are much saltier than others.
