Well, besides the ones that might contain extra ingredients, such as salt, sugar or other sweeteners, flour, rice, etc.
We usually mix Buddy's more unpleasant tasting meds and supplements with ham baby food, which is the only meat flavor he can tolerate because of his food allergies and sensitivities. Unfortunately, he's having a rather wicked herpes flare up at the moment, so we're currently feeding him ham baby food mixed with EZComplete to tempt his appetite when he won't eat anything else.
So because we don't want Buddy to associate the ham baby food with something bad, and make it more difficut to get him to eat than it already is, we'd like to try a non-meat baby food to try disguise the taste of his icky tasting meds and supplements that we administer via a syringe. Also, because there's a possibility that we may need to switch him to Moducare at some point (which can't be given with anything that contains cholesterol), I guess now is a good a time as any to figure out which non-meat baby food is going to be our go-to for these sorts of things.
Is there anything obvious we should avoid, besides the usual things that you should never feed a cat, e.g. grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, etc.? And what about those baby foods that contain citric acid? IIRC, I've seen it listed as an ingredient on some cat foods, but I'm a bit paranoid, and want to make sure.
