He won't eat!

I REMEMBER PAYING 30 ODD DOLLARS YERAS AGO FOR MEDICAL SENIOR FOOD FOR MR SCRAPPY, AND MICHAEL THE DREAM KITTEN LOVED IT.
mR SCRAPPY WOULDNT EAT IT ON A BET.
THATS SO FRUSTRATING!!!
AND THATS WHEN 3O DOLLARS WAS A LOT OF MONEY FOR 8 POUNDS!!!

Maybe mix a bit of stinky wet food in with it at first? Check with your vet.

When I started Oscar and Cole on the Omega 3 oil, I would mix it in their usual wet food (Royal Canin kd). They wouldn't touch it. So I resorted to adding a bit of the Fancy Feast junk food - it worked! And now they eat it without anything added (except the Omega 3-6 oil).

I wish I had some words of wisdom for you but, alas, I do not. It's been my experience that when my Fur Posse decides that they don't like something, that's it. No further effort necessary. Prayers are going up, however, that Binky will have a change of heart and eat and be strong.

You might try other brands of similar diets. Most of the major pet food manufacturers who make veterinary diets make a gastrointestinal formulal as well and your cat may like a different brand better.

Ask your vet if they can order a different brand or refer you to another clinic in the area that carries a different brand.

I'll try some of these tricks and see if it works; I feel so sorry for him.

Thank you all........
