Feeding only wet food?

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Thanks for the suggestions guys, and Auggie, thanks so much for the link! I've only fed dry food since I first got Tubby years and years ago, so I'm totally unfamiliar with feeding wet food only. So far things are going relatively well.....but don't be surprised if the next time you see Peanut she's a littel porker. CJ is a fussy eater and what he doesn't finish, she's getting....along with the little bit I give to her to keep her quiet while he's eating. She's such a little piglet that both dishes are licked spotless when she's done. CJ, however, appears to prefer Sheba over Max Cat, but the Sheba only disappeared completely when it was first opened. Once it was put in the refrigerator, he was much less interested in it. There's no way the two of them can finish off a complete container, so how do I make it so he eats it even after it's been open for awhile? I did put the dish in the microwave to warm it up since warming the food itself up doesn't work well - any other ideas?

Thanks again! Now we just have to wait and see if it's going to make a difference in his poop - keep your fingers crossed!

The answer to this is SOOOOOOO obvious..............

Get a few more cats.

All kidding aside, I sure hope this helps the poop problem.

Never thought of that, Jen! I'll see if that works with Terry.

I have the opposite problem with Storm. He'll only eat wet food that's been refrigerated. He doesn't like it when it's room temperature but the rest of mine prefer it that way. I have to make sure that I put another can in the fridge before it gets too low. The other furkids have learned to eat cold wet food.

I hope that all goes well and please continue to keep us updated.
