What kind of dry cat food were you trying to feed her? Maybe if you tried a grain free kind she might prefer it. When I was pet sitting for 2 cats and 2 dogs, I noticed that the cats didn't really like eating their dry food. I didn't even have to refill their bowls and this was from Fri.-Sun. The female cat loved eating canned food and they also both liked eating the dogs dry food which isn't good for them. I told their owners about this and when the woman came by to get her key back I showed her the dry cat food that I was feeding my cats. I also gave her a sample to take home with her. Her cats loved the new dry food. I was feeding my cats Merrick's Before Grain Salmon dry cat food. I would also feed them the chicken flavor too. I think that they were being fed Iams or Purina dry cat food which they just didn't like. I ended up pet sitting again for only the 2 cats and they would always finish the dry food so I would have to refill the bowls each time. The woman also upgraded their canned food from Iams to Fussy cat which they also love. I agree that feeding animals good quality food without all the fillers is much better for them. They will produce less waste because their bodies will absorb all the good ingredients. It may cost more but you don't need to feed them as much of it. I hope you'll be able to find the right food for your cat. Good luck.
