You can use keyboard buttons to make it move
Make it move right
Use these together!
when [right arrow v] key pressed
point in direction(90)
move (10) steps
Make it move left
What can you copy and change?
Make it move left
Right click on a block to duplicate it. 
Make start in a certain spot
when green flag clicked go to x (-100) y (0)
...and that it doesn't go upside down
when green flag clicked go to x:(-100) y:(0) set rotation style [left-right v] // Add this block
When will things change? What will change?
how does it "sense" the food?
put these together to make it always wondering if it has food
when green flag clicked
forever
if < > then
touching (donut v) ?
if it is touching the food, then...?
switch costume to (happy v)
Add scripts to the food!
how does the food know it has been eaten?
when green flag clicked
forever
if < > then
touching (sprite1 v) ?
Wait a sec...
It takes a little while to eat all that food. This block also makes sure the script on your pet has time to detect that it is touching the food before it disappears.
wait (1) seconds
How will we show it is eaten up?
hide
Make the food come back at the start
when green flag clicked show

Put the food on a plate and let the pet leave some crumbs
Right now the food just hides. What could happen instead? What costumes will you need?
Make the pet notice when it is close to the food
These blocks will be useful:
