My Willow has always been a bit on the chubby side, but two years ago my new vet told me that she should only eat the TD dry food and limit her intake so she could lose weight.
The exact opposite has happened. The problem is that she has become utterly obsessed with the TD and literally bothers me all day long, often starting at 5 am. If I'm at my computer she will tap me on the arm every 5 minutes and yowl until I shoo her away, and she's back after a few minutes. It's got to the point where I can't stand to be at home; otherwise I end up feeding her just to shut her up because I can't read or even watch TV. Her blood tests a few months ago came back fine so she isn't sick.
She's never really had a wet cat food that I would consider a healthy diet but at least she used to be happy with two pouch meals a day and a snack at bedtime. But now she won't eat any of the tinned food and pouches that she used to like. I've tried her on every single kind of canned food with no luck -- she doesn't like any of them -- and I'm tired of wasting money on $3.00 small tins of food that end up in the garbage.
My little Dude is happy with a mixed diet of TD and Fancy Feast and he's trim and healthy. Willow won't even touch Fancy Feast, so I can't even put her on that.
I'm at my wit's end. Any suggestions? For the first time I'm honestly not enjoying having my Willow around.
