Catmandu, I have some of the wet food you described (Hill's A/D) It's a bit too soft for him to get into his mouth though. The regulr ground food seems to work well. Science Diet kitten was horribly dry, and after watching him eat that for a few moments, I decided to give him another brand. The white coats who saw him on Tues. are so nice. They called yesterday to see how the little boy was doing! Unlike my locals who could care less.
