I could use some advice, please. Piggy(10 mo-old) is a picky eater, and is looking a little too thin. Piggy has always been a little on the thin side(except as a baby), but now she's a little too thin for our tastes All of our other cats are either a little overweight or normal. I think it may be a combination of diet change and first heats. We have begun transitioning our kitties to a raw diet, and the only thing she will nibble on is a little ground turkey. All of the other cats enjoy the raw food, but Piggy just sniffs(maybe a lick or two) and walks away We are still giving her dry kitten food. We would like for her to put on a little weight before we get her spayed, but are at a loss on how to do this.
She is still active, her coat looks good, eyes are clear, and poop is solid. Her waist dips in, her ribs stick out(can't count them, though), and her hips aren't quite pointy. Technically, I think she would be considered underweight, but not emaciated. We don't want her to become emaciated
She's always been picky about food, even as a baby. When all of the other kittens would voraciously attack the moist food, she would give it a sniff and go for the kibble This has continued as she has grown. We've tried all kinds of moist food, fish juices, raw egg, cooked egg, beef, chicken, turkey, etc.... She really likes dairy and dog food, but we limit her intake of both.
Is there anything else we can try? Thank you
