I ordered 12 5.5ox cans of TOTW  from mrchewy.com on Saturday morning. I am really hoping it will be here Tuesday. Hobo is getting picker and pickier. All that I have left are pate style foods and some dry.

Good thing I have the dry or the little turd would be going hungry. I hope he still likes the TOTW or idk what I will do. It is just a tad expensive to keep buying foods and him not liking it. Going to start sticking with cuts, slices, and anything but pate after this.

I hate living so far from any pet store. There are obviously more brands I can try with him Nutro Max, Soulictic to name a couple, but do not want to order a whole case until I know wether he likes it or not.

When I eventually switch to raw will it be this hard to get him to eat or worse?

I hope to switch the dogs around May or June after we move, but Hobo has me thinking he can be a pain if I try to switch him.

Know just what you mean.  I ordered four cases of variety packs last week (for  4 cats).  Problem is, they only really like ONE of the cans of food, and there were only 6 cans total in those four cases.  SO...now after sampling one of every type of food there was, I know what I need to order, and I have ordered a  couple of cases of that and put it on auto reorder to save money, but when will it get here???  Not soon enough, that's for sure! I am in the process of already converting to raw, so definitely need a food here that they love, so I can "hide" the raw in it

Why are cats so picky! LOL  Hope your kitties continue to like that one can of food. My estimated delivery day is Thursday, grr.

I know how you feel. I still have so many cans of random cat food that my cats refuse to eat. They're mostly pate, because my cats don't like that texture. The worst is I still have 18 cans of a 24 case of chicken soup for the cat lover's soul that I can only feed them once a week or less, or they'll completely refuse it. For months they were eating soulistic chicken and basically only that, but now they refuse to eat that and will only eat the fish flavors. It's a constant struggle to put food on their plates that they will eat.

That is what I'm worried about, him getting tired of the TOTW. My friend might be visiting this weekend and she plans on bringing me 12 cans of Earthborn. I will be able to switch every day which brand he eats.

HOORAY!  


That wasn't too long of a wait since Saturday. (I know, Monday or Tuesday would have been nicer!)

Hope Hobo loves it! 
It wasn't too long you are right, but Wag.com ships in 2 days. Of course they do not carry the other canned food I need to order and they didn't have the 5.5oz of TOTW. LOL I can't be to picky haha saved the gas money by ordering.

Love the banana hehe
