    That's a good idea. I had a message from my vet (great having her as a FB friend!) and she said the FORL (tooth disease) can take two weeks to heal.

    Oscar was a tad overweight, but this is not the diet I had in mind!

    I'll keep trying and so will he.

    Since he is eating treats, have you tried Pill Pockets?

    Now that the vet said to give him 2 weeks, I guess stick with soft foods for that time.

    I did try the Pill Pockets. They worked ONCE. lol

    As if to prove me wrong, Oscar did start chomping at food a lot more after I posted this message AND messaged my vet. It figures, right?

    I also have changed my attitude a bit. "If you're hungry, you'll eat it." It's still mostly wet food, with a bit of dry sprinkled on top. He did eat a good amount of it.

    Is it possible Oscar might be playing the sympathy card to get the yummy junk salmon cat food?

    Oh yeah, they are VERY good at working us, for sympathy! LOL

    As long as he IS eating, I wouldn't worry too much. If he stops completely that is a big deal, especially with the overweight cats.

    Good job Oscar, make da HuMom sweat, ha haa.
