5 mo. old kitten--new eating habit?
Lizzie is 5 months old, spayed last week...Has been fed Pro Plan canned food for 6 weeks, loved it, until SUNDAY, she will eat a tiny bit and leave the rest, she has her own bowl,,i thought maybe it was stuck in the corner of the bowl so i would scoop it up into a nice pile for her, this usually works, i tried putting it on a saucer, NOPE, didn't help, if it had been in the fridge, i warmed it up, Still not good enuf....SO tonight when she shrugged it off, i got a bit angry, took the can out of the fridge, stuck in a spoon and chopped it into large hunks..and put the can on the floor, she ate almost all of it...WHAT GIVES>>>any suggestions,,is my kitten finicky or bored with the same ole dish?..(she has been eating her dry food out of her other bowl) oh ya,,we even tried using different flavors.
to the comment from Organiz--i already stated that she has dry food out, but thanks
also,,my vet does NOT want me feeding her dry food at all after the age of 1...Says "Recent studies prove that cats do better eating a diet of meats/fish/poultry (canned) foods than dry..am just doin what she says

As a cat grows, their need for fuel from food changes. I would start feeding her dry food so she can eat throughout the day; and leave out lots of water also.
Source(s): EX Breeder - Siamese Chocolate Point. I bred extremely large, aggressive, assertive and domineering cats for those who really wanted a true Siamese. Mine were hand raised and fully litter and behavior trained, since if not, would be very difficult to handle when older. They were also spayed and neutered and had all shots, etc. They had to be 4 months old and background checks were done on each potential buyer, and if not educated on the breed, the sale was cancelled. I also had a waiting list, so that each litter already had homes before born. I stopped due to overpopulation since there are many more who go without a home. I'd rather save a life than make money WHILE MILLIONS OF CATS ARE PUT TO DEATH DUE TO IRRESPONSIBLE OR UNEDUCATED PET OWNERS. - 5 years ago
First, as a huge animal lover i desire to commend you for adopting an unwell puppy. i used to be in contact with a no kill guard & fostered cats. It grew to become into VERY seldom that the unwell ones have been observed. i'm assuming his lethargy began once you observed the female. if so, besides contracting her U.R.I., in step with probability he isn't pleased approximately having to share YOU. regrettably some cats prefer to be the only one or in basic terms don’t like specific cats in the family individuals. we could desire that isn't the case right here, by using fact curiously to me that they are very blessed with an dazzling homestead! once I had 6 cats, a million woman did no longer like a million different woman. Katrena tolerated her, yet had no longer something to do with Autumn. She went so some distance as peeing in Autumn’s nutrition dish to teach her dislike...LOL! You did no longer point out them no longer getting alongside, so I doubt it relatively is the reason for him being torpid. It’s elementary for us to grant fairly some like to our new “little ones”, extremely in the event that they're unwell. I quite propose which you be useful to grant him your interest first. the 1st sign of an animal being fairly unwell, are while they provide up eating. Then instantaneous veterinary care is mandatory. It’s admirable of your Veterinarian to offer med’s on your male without seeing him. maximum folk wouldn’t try this by using fact there ought to be yet another wellness concern. So please ask your Veterinarian how quickly you ought to work out an progression in him. besides a rectal thermometer there are ones for the ear, however they're costly. yet they seem to be a smart investment! i'm hoping that I definitely have helped some. God Bless You on your devotion on your pets! chuffed trip journeys, Deb
