After Rocky was diagnosed with a UTI, we've been feeding him 1 can of Hills s/d per day for about a week now.
Until as of late, he had no problem with the new diet, and transitioned to it very quickly. However, he's started being a bit more.. finicky.. I guess in the past 3 days. It takes him a couple of hours just to finish a quarter can.. he seems very reluctant to eat the food. He has no problem eating any other food though! He is always trying to steal Bijou's food, or steal something from the table, in fact I caught him trying to eat some butter that I had accidentally left out on the kitchen counter!!
This prescription canned food was very expensive and I still have about 24 cans of it left.. if Rocky doesn't eat it, then all that money goes to waste.. The feeding situation is inconvenient, since we have to keep Bijou and Rocky separated until they finish their food, and while Bijou finishes her portion within 15 minutes, Rocky is taking his good old time.
I don't understand why Rocky has suddenly grown this disinterest in the prescription food.. one of my guesses is because he got tired of the flavor or something? He still has quite an appetite, and seems to want to eat anything other than his food.
