I've been posting on here about Simba who has to be 23 years old and what we are doing to keep him around with us as long as he is okay. We bought different kinds of foods for him awhile back, some he likes, some he turns his nose up at, but we also started to give him lunch meat and cheese since he likes to eat that, plus I also at times give him some Nutritional yeast, I read they shouldn't get a lot of it because it could cause urinary issues but he's 23 and if he eats it we'll give it a little bit. We have SO many different kinds of treats, he used to eat most of them but lately he is really finicky with them. He used to love baked chicken, but since we started giving him some everyday it seems like the love affair with that is over too lol! But he does eat dry food, Iams and Fancy Feast, is thin but he's 23, so it is to be expected. And we think that when he comes into the kitchen to see what treats or food I will put down he is just "playing" me, he doesn't cry like he used to, he just walks away if he doesn't like what I put down, and if he likes it he'll eat it, so we figure this is how he will be. Last night I tried some solid tuna in water and he didn't care for it, so we try other things and figure as long as he is eating something and drinking and using the litter box and seems interested in things (which he is) he's okay, and will eat and do things on his own schedule. But Sylvester and a few others are taking full advantage of him leaving "excess" food on the floor!
We fully thought that he would be the next one to pass away, not Slim as I had posted on here. But that's life I guess...we never know what is going on insdie them and they are masters at hiding health issues. But he doesn't seem sick, we just think it is his age.
Any other food suggestions would be appreciated, thank you!
