Hi all!
My newly adopted cat, Carlton, needs to have some pretty heavy dental work done (cleaning and multiple extractions). I am worried because not only is he super playful and my vet said he won’t be able to play with toys for at least two weeks following the procedure, but also because she mentioned he must eat only wet food for two weeks, as well.
While he enjoys wet food (I feed him blue buffalo wet and dry), he is definitely more into dry food. I’ve given him every flavor of blue buffalo prior to wearing him off of fancy feast, and he seems to have his favorite which is the beef flavor, but nonetheless, dry food is certainly preferable. He is also not the type of cat to eat all of his food the second he gets it- he’ll eat little portions throughout the day/night.
Ultimately, I am concerned that being able to only eat wet food for at least two weeks will be hard on him, on top of the fact that he is going to be bored without his play time! Any experts have tips or even simply words of encouragement if you’ve been in similar situations with your feline friends? Appreciate the input
Here’s some pics for fun, and because I am so very in love with him he is truly the best.
