We have a senior female foster named Gilda who is a really picky eater. She is recovering from giardia and lost a good deal of weight so I really want to fatten her up. But it's very hard to get her to eat enough. She will eat something one day, then turn her nose up at it the next day. So I have to keep coming up with different foods for her to try.
She has a few favorites but even these don't always work. When the vet saw her he noted she had dental disease but didn't push us to have her teeth cleaned (or pulled if necessary). Now I'm wondering if part of the problem isn't because her teeth might hurt? Has anybody had a cat increase appetite after getting dental work?
