Our little guy Mittens who I am about to change his name to Moochy cause that is what he does most of the day. He approx 16 wks old. He ate that crappy Whiska's when we got him from the previous owner. They gave me some to take home . I went to a pet food store PetValu and they suggested putting him on a high quality food called LIfetime which is a Canadian made wheat free,corn free chicken and turkey and oatmeal food along with herring and flaxseed oil vitamins etc. etc
I started mixing the Whiskas with the Lifetime and he ate it . As I gradually decreased the Whiska's his mooching got worse.Seems he liked the junk food better. He is completely on the new food and he just seems to hate it. Of course he will eat some to stay alive and he is not losing weighs . He wanders the kitchen constantly looking for crumbs and crying . When I make anything to eat he is so bad we have to put him in another room where he crys and crys to get out. He will try to climb up our legs and jump on the table or counter crying the whole time if he stays in the kitchen..
I have had many cats in the past and not experienced mooching to this degree. I am thinking I will have to change his food to something he at least likes. Nobody wants to go through life hating their food.
Any advice on the would be a great help thanks
