I got my lovely ginger cat from a shelter about ten months ago. They weren't sure about his age but they said he was probably about ten months at the time, so that makes him almost two years old now. He has never eaten wet food, we've tried every cat food available, we've tried fresh meat, both raw and lightly cooked, we've tried fish, both fresh and tinned, we've tried egg yolk, we've tried cheese. I've tried crushing his dried food and sprinkling it over wet food, nothing works, he will not eat it, he literally backs away from it. He will only eat tiny amounts of dried food, about three or four pieces at a time, and then only a few times a day. He seems to survive on fresh air! He is happy, inquisitive, sociable, playful, gets on well with our other cat and he's full of energy. He hasn't grown much or gained any weight but he doesn't seem to be losing weight either. He likes water and drinks plenty of it. He grooms well and his coat is lovely, clean and soft and his eyes are clear and bright. How can this be when he eats nothing?? He goes out at night but he's never out for long. If he's hunting he's doing it very quickly.
