I figured I'd start my own thread so I would have a place to vent without clogging up other threads. As some may remember, I have always switched up the brands of wet food I fed Boone and Gracie pretty much every month since they were small. I would keep one brand the same every month so I'd know that I'd have a back-up if needed. For a long time, it was Tiny Tiger. Now.. I really don't know. As they have been approaching a year old, they went from good eaters to slooow eaters.
I feed them twice a day in 12 hour intervals. They will eventually eat all their food but some days it takes hours. Like yesterday, I fed them at 3pm when I got home. Boone ate about half but Gracie immediately turned her nose up and walked away. At 8pm when I went to bed, it was still pretty much the same. Boone had a little left and Gracie still had a full bowl. When I got up and went to feed them at 3am, both bowls were empty. For all I know, Boone ate Gracie's too sometime during the night. I guess all that matters is they eat but dang... it drives me crazy when it takes them forever to do so.
I thought I had a winner with Weruva because they did eat that immediately but that only lasted a month. When I bought more, they went back to taking forever to eat it. I had to stop at Petco yesterday to pick up birthday presents and bought a couple more cans of Weruva in different flavors. Just to test the waters. That went over like a lead brick. I am at a loss on what I can do now. I hate buying food and it seem like I am forcing them to eat it. I can't say I've tried every brand out there but I've tried A LOT of them!! I would still like to feed them good quality wet food but at this point, I'm ready to give up if they don't seem to enjoy what they are eating.
