I am new to this forum, I am hoping that I might be able to get some advice from you cat lovers/experts!
My new cat of 2 weeks (that I got from the humane society) hardly eats at all. I got him EVO (both the dry and canned food) because of all the wonderful things I had heard/read about it, but he shows little interest in it (well, he seems to like the canned food more than the dry food-he probably eats about 1/4 of a 5.5 oz can/day) My vet says that he actually needs to GAIN weight (which I know is a rarity in the cat world!) and she seemed to feel that he probably just simply doesn't like the EVO, which is why he eats almost none of it. So basically I am wondering....has anyone else had this problem? And if so, what other good quality dry cat foods could you recommend that seem to be very palatable? He has no diet restrictions, and in fact, a higher calorie food would probably be even better for him, as he is also QUITE active which doesn't help his weight situation either.
Hopefully someone out there can give me some help! Ahhh...I guess we just have to love these guys..even with all of their little peculiarities!
Thanks!
