My 8 y.o. indoors lady changed her eating behavior. She eats very little! She declines Dr Hill's Digestive (wet food) completely. This is the only healthy food available in Uruguay where we moved 18 months ago. I shipped a ton of her Fancy feast here, but the supply is very low now. Impossible to receive anything here.
I can only buy Dr Hill's digestive (a can here is about 8 US dollars!) I give her small portions, but she never finishes her portion. She also eats DRY food Dr Hill's that I alternate with good Brazilian Dry food. Only feeding her with dry food is not good for her.
She is very picky and her digestive is very sensitive. We tried EVERYTHING through the years. She ONLY EATS CAT food. Lately, she eats very little. She did not lose any weight, her behavior is normal though a little slower than before. Our relocation here is not very good for her, it is not very QUIET in our new location, she cannot get used to it. She is not as LIVELY as she was in Los Angeles (in a very quiet apartment) She hides a lot, and she startles a lot. And it's been 18 months since we moved. Other than showing these signs, she is OK. She poops every day, peeps OK, normal stuff.
She had a Vet exam here a few months ago, her lab tests were OK.
What I feed her is --- 1/6 of the 5.5 oz CAN (divided for 6 days, the rest of the portion I keep in plastic can in the fridge.) Also - two small portions of DRY food - about 2 table spoons each. Three meals total. She barely eats her wet food. It takes her many trips to the bowl to eat all of her dry food, her DRY food she eventually eats all. She drinks normally.
Any suggestions/opinions? I am worried and at a loss... Thanks to all.
