Hi,
i got my cat when she was about 7 mos old.
she is now almost 4....
i wanted her to have the better cat food (or what i believed was better) but she refuses to eat any thing but Cat Chow, Meow Mix and Whiskas (all dry)
she will only lap up the liquid from canned cat food, if there is no "garvy", she will not touch it.
and she doesn't eat any people food except an occasional peice of cheese or a tiny bit of milk (she is one of the very few cats who have the enzyme so that she can digest milk) and perhpas a teaspoon of the water from a can of tuna (not the tuna itself)
my vet said that the cheap stuff is BETTER for her, that all the premium brands are too rich and cause health problems...
well, i have seen cats on premium foods (Iams, Science Diet) and they had GORGEOUS coats!
my cat is heatlhy enough, but i think her fur could look better, i don't know, maybe this is just the way she is....
but i cannot get her to eat the expensive stuff,
so, is there some supplement i can give her that will improve her coat and reassure me that she is getting all the nurtition she needs?
(she would not eat dry food with Linatone on it, or any other oil)
maybe a tasty tablet? that tastes like a treat? (she does like liver based cat treats)
she is almost impossible to"pill" so it could not be a pill that she will not eat on her own.
ANY IDEAS??
thanks!
