Hello, My name is Kimber
I am writing to anyone & everyone to see if I can come up with new ideas or maybe someone has an answer to my BIG problem. I was going to do a raw diet but right now with 7 cats I am not able to afford it. I was at least stopping the dry food & trying to change to a good canned cat food, but as you will see my problems are bigger then I had hoped for.
I am at my wits end. I have changed all of my cats food from dry to canned about 6 months ago. The transition was very smooth, so easy in fact I was a little scared. Well now my nightmare begins; I started all of my cats on Hounds and Gatos canned cat food, while one of my most picky eaters did not like the flavors the others cats loved I was able to get her to eat the chicken. Now no one is eating the food, I have tried every canned cat food out there. I have skipped meals to make sure they were hungry, I've tried fish flavors, tried heating it up, serving cold, adding water, tonight I will try Sprinkle parmesan cheese on the food. I don't know what to do I can't go back to dry food, my picky eater suffers from crystal & she is not able to eat hard food anymore. My cats are losing weight since the change & for some this is a good thing but for my picky princess who I swear thinks she is a glamor girl this is not ideal. This hiccup is coasting me $100's a month just trying to get them to eat, I need help in a big way & fast. FYI, all cats have had a checkup & are in good health, so they are just being butt heads to the MAX.
Canned food I have tried ( all flavors)
Hounds & Gatos
blue
evo
natural choice
natural balance
soulistic
life stages
purfect bistro
pro plan
friskies
fancy feast
wellness
Nature's Variety
halo
max cat
pride
Please help me I am pulling my hair out & not sure how much longer I can go to bed knowing my babies are hungry.
Thank you in advance for any & all advice. Since I work the night shift I will not be able to see responses until tomorrow.
