Dry food only ??

Should I be concerned that my 10 month old kitty eats only dry food?

Until she was about 4 months old she ate both dry & canned foods. About 1/3 can & close to 1 cup of dry. As she has stopped growing so fast she has gradually decreased her daily intake. Now about 3/4 cup of dry but NO canned food.

When she first stopped eating canned food (abt 4 months of age)I tried many kinds in attempt to find something she would eat. She would eat about 1/2 teaspoonful & then wouldn't touch the same food again. I soon gave up on the canned foods.

She seems healthy though she has never been as active since her spaying. As she became less active the amount eaten decreased which I figure is normal.

I used to give her a jar of Gerber baby meat once a week for a treat. When very young she would gobble up an entire jar. She now seems to enjoy a bit, about 1/4 jar but seems satisfied with that. Do you think I should be concerned? Or is she just 'growing up' ?

I wouldn't be concerned. If your vet says she's healthy then unless she's sick, thank your stars! Cats do calm down once they're spayed. Mollie Rose (my 7 year old tortie) has come a couch potato. Very content with eating and sleeping.

Look , cats are firstly eat a small amound af food and after some hours they eat the rest . They do that in order to see whether that food will create problems or not . So try to give her food and let the food for some hours . Even all night . Another issue is that cats as they grow older they are less and less active . so it`s age plays a role . is is more than a year it is natural . Advice : try sarddines that are with tomato and oil

The older they get, the less active they usually are. They will go through spurts of dashing through the house and acting like a baby again. The more active they are, the more they need to consume to give them the energy they need.
I wouldnt worry about the wet food at all. My cats dont get any wet food after they hit 6 months. They all eat dry only and an occasional treat. They are all very healthy happy cats.
