I understand how that feels |

Bird, If he's vomiting on the new food, the old food should make his stomach happy again. Have the vets tried boosting his appetite? It's just a quick little shot. If he still doesn't eat, he might be painful somewhere. |

Aqua I just feel like it would really impact my cats quality of life if he couldnt have like a whipped cream cookie crumble Frappuccino from Starbucks for lunch every day |
Snowswift Sanctuary |
Dusty, Sketti got cheese whiz so he'd eat his medications when I first got him, lol. He came to me with kitty pinkeye and wouldn't take his meds any other way. |
Hummingbird Meadows |
@Versa, I am just worried about it making him sick again though. I spent $700 taking him to the vet this past week. |
Snowswift Sanctuary |
Dusty, Just depends on the brand. Some are genuine. Read the ingredients closely and it could change your cat's health lol |

Sometimes when my dog wont eat we put a little cheese or cream cheese on her food and then she eats all of it idk if cats can have cheese though |

Savannah I'm trying not to scare you into expensive wet food but every thing is expensive when it comes to feedig pets |
Snowswift Sanctuary |
Bird, What in the heck... Food is EXPENSIVE, even when it isn't prescription. That seems like such a dumb decision. Yeah, I dunno... Usually a swap over takes two weeks, though, to be considered proper |
Hummingbird Meadows |
@Dusty, that would be easy! XD For real though I am stressing because he needs to be on this diet, but won't freakin eat it! I tried mixing a churu in it tonight and he just licked the food. =/ |
Savannah Stables |
Honestly I think wet food is a scam from big pet food companies like anyone with a brain can tell a big slice of vanilla cake is WAY better for your cat, it tastes so much better than mushed up mystery meat |
Hummingbird Meadows |
@Versa, I spent a couple days changing it, but my Mom threw away the old food without consulting me so then he was just on the new stuff. The vet thinks it is the new food that made him sick though and that he needs to be on hydrolyzed. It wasn't just throwing up once. It was throwing up over a whole day. |
Snowswift Sanctuary |
Wet food IS generally better in terms of nutritional value. However, you've sincerely gotta note that the cat's weight CAN change and drop, from a swap to wet food from kibble. It is very important to keep an eye on it, monitor, and offer more if they need it. |
