I had this problem with both my seniors. The only thing that worked for me was to stick to the pate style foods for them.Anyone else feel my pain here?! They usually only eat Pate but I thought I'd give it a shot, because RedBarn was on sale. 4 paws down. They ate all the broth and left the chunks.
The Ladies get only pate foods. Friskies makes enough flavors that it is easy to give them a different flavor every meal for 5 days. I buy mine at Walmart Supercenter, but have to drive over 40 miles to get the variety. So I go once a month and buy 60 cans at a time.@Missey, Sheba, Fancy Feast, and Friskies are three reasonably-costing, reasonable quality wet foods that you can find in the US. I believe they offer all the variations (sauce, jelly, gravy, pate) so you might need to search or order online for the pate or terrine style.
