Hi there,
I just joined two days ago and it seems like Hugo has all of the sudden become finicky. Hugo is about 5 months old rescue, unneutered male (he gets neutered in 2 weeks) and always been on a 50% wet, 50% dry grain free diet. I tend to buy an assortment of different flavours of wet food each week and mix it in with his dry kibble with some additional water. We started with Go Natural and I switched him to Orijen a month or so ago which seems to work for him until maybe today.
He usually has a 7.30 am feed and today for some reason, he did not touch or eat his meal. I thought the wet might have gone off and opened another can for him - same thing, a few bites and none. Then I tried to a piece of treat in his bowl of kibble which finally got him to eat a few bites of the kibble.
I'm not sure what is going on but could the Orijen kibble (large pack) I bought 2 weeks ago have gone off? I had to store it in air tight boxes because he bit his way through the first pack of Orijen even before I even opened it. Or is he being finicky because I haven't change his kibble brand in maybe 3 weeks? (the rescue had him on science diet and I moved slowly to Go Natural then to Orijen)
Please advice because I'm not sure how often does one rotate kibble?
Thanks
