My 14 year old male cat refuses to eat anything but Friskies dry food / wet food. I've tried other expensive brands both dry & wet but he just walks away. I've got so much food just wasted. I've tried weening him off by mixing his dry food with another brand but he just picks out the Friskies (lol).
He recently had crystal blockage (struvite) and was also diagnosed as obese. The blockage cleared up under the vets care and we were sent home with anti inflammatory pills & Royal Canin prescription S/O dry food along with a case of wet food. The vet said no weening off the old food and to just start feeding him the Canin prescription.
The cat's really trying bless his heart but all he does is grab a dry cookie, spit it out and repeat. He wont go near the wet food. The vet says he will eventually have no choice but to accept the new food but It's been 3 days now so I caved and gave him a wet can of Friskies. He pigged out and went to sleep (and started snoring lol).
I know crystals are a serious problem and I'm at my wits end. Does anyone know if Friskies wet food will give a cat crystals?
