I happened upon 'thecatsite' by accident this morning and I've been reading various blogs for a few hours. I'm old and not good on the computer and since I've had Rose (10years) I've been looking for a resource such as this. So thankyou to all the bloggers. I have a fussy eater. I've always thought she was too skinny but vets say she is perfect. This last check up, she went down a pound which was upsetting to me..from 9 to 8 pounds. Vet was unconcerned.
I want to feed her the very best of course and I'm looking for a wet or dry product which might add some weight but not compromise her protein etc. She has always had a continuous dry supply of Purina One. Then I give her Fancy Feast 1/3 can or 1 tblsp twice day of wet. Is this not good?? Should I not give her both? 95% of the time she doesn't eat the wet unless there is a lot of broth or it is a new flavor. She always comes snooping on my plate and I usually give her a taste of anything but she just smells and walks away. She won't eat fresh shrimp, salmon, tuna, etc. She will eat the broth from the tuna can and leave all morsels of tuna. She does the same with the fancy feast new 'Broths' packets...sucks all the gravy and leaves the solids. Vet says her teeth are fine. I would appreciate any suggestions???
