Loki goes insane for these dried tuna flake cat treats. He's heading towards hibernation so he's getting more than a bit lazy about getting treats lately.
I know hand feeding isn't generally recommended but after some early problems with him biting my fingers ever time I ate sushi I decided to try something different. I started handing him treats and food, being sure to alternate with petting and presenting my hands with no food. If he got grabby I'd stop and try again later. He quickly became really careful to check before he bites. I'm careful not to let my guard down with him, but he seems to be very gentle and less likely to bite on scent alone.
The dried tuna flakes and dried salmon chunks are his favorite. I also use them to get him to eat new foods as he'll try pretty much any food if I top it with fish flakes.
