Hello! I am hoping someone can help if they've experienced something similar. I adopted the most wonderful cat last year. Words cannot express how much I love my bundle of joy! I want the best for him. The best toys, the best litter box, best treats AND the best food!
Long story short I was able to transition my cat from FF Classics to Weruva to Ziwipeak. My cat never ate dry food and I kept a bag of Orijen dry food on hand just in case. He didn't eat much of it and the people who knew my cat at the shelter told me not to feed dry anyway as it is not good for my make cat.
So still having success on Ziwipeak. He also loves Applaws from the UK. As far as raw, my cat ate all flavors of NV Instinct Frozen Raw Bites for several months and then one day just stopped! I turned to Primal Pronto Frozen Raw Bites and my cat would not eat any of the flavors until at my wits end, gave him the pork frozen bites which he ate with gusto! Unfortunately, Primal made their "bites" noticeably larger in size and my cat would not eat it after several weeks of trying to get him to eat it.
I then turned to Rad Cat. He liked the lamb for the first week and would then not eat it. I read on this forum that most cats like the Rad Cat turkey so I purchased one. Again, first week my cat loved it but now he does something that is cute but also very frustrating: Whenever my cat dislikes a food, he'll do over to his bowl, try to eat it, then scratch the table near his food bowl as well as the floor by his food. I thought he was burying the food but in my case, he was showing me that he doesn't like what I'm serving. So he will try to eat it and then scratch the table...then he'll go back to the dish, smell it and continue to scratch the same table an floor. He brushes his tail against me hoping to get new food (which I always give in to).
I can't he the Alpha Malt as it breaks my heart to see him sulking because I won't give him new food.
Anyone else have something similar like this? I just love my cat and want him to eat the best food possible! Thanks in advance!
