diets are a bust

[mspepper]

well the diets are a failure
both refused to eat the cat food now
is all the same flavour and the poor dears have had it
dude was sick and was throwing up and just refused to eat the last 3 meals
Pepper held on a bit longer but then she too refused to eat it
so they are back on the fancy feast
I am" not going to force them to eat it" I just can not
if that makes me a bad meowmy as my friend has told me then so be it
they are 8 and 9 years old now and have had variety of flavours for all there lives and now I can not expecet them to eat the same thing day in, day out. every day
I would refuse to eat tooooo
I am gonna cut them down with the fancy feas and cut way down on the treaties
Dude caught on to the treatie trick and will not eat them but pepper seems to like the it
When they go for there nail trims next month I will tell the vet and she what else she can recommend

I just went back and read your original thread and I know that the vet recommended that food but why? Are they overweight?

My cats are on a low-protein diet and they did not like the food either. In the end, and as I do now, I give them a scoop of the LP wet food and spread a thin layer of Fancy Feast on top and that seems to do the trick.

On the finicky days, they lick the FF off the top and cry for more so I give them a bit more but mix it in with the LP stuff. It's hard I know.

Do what you think is right. At 8 and 9 years old, old habits are hard to break and if they are doing fine then why change?
