Basically, try anything in your refrigerator! But things I've found that sometimes worked: Fancy Feast Classic Chicken White Rose canned tuna (people tuna) Yogurt Cottage Cheese Gerber Stage 3 baby food-ham or chicken or beef or turkey Tuna water (from canned people tuna in water) Liverwurst Ham or prosciutto Kentucky Fried Chicken (boneless) Chicken soup
None are recommended for long term use--but when you're basically just trying to get something in the cat, go for anything they want...Also, sometimes, just heating the food (not yogurt or cott cheese) a bit makes it have more of an aroma. -----Original Message----- From: Felvtalk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Amanda Payne Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2013 9:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Felvtalk] What to feed a finicky, sick kitten? Hello everyone! This is my first time using this forum :) I have a ten month old kitty, Polli, who was diagnosed with FeLV about two months ago. At that time, she started licking the walls and our potted plants in addition increasing lethargy. I took her to the vet where she was diagnosed with severe anemia related to FeLV. We were told we'd have to assist her to the rainbow bridge within days of the diagnosis. Thankfully, she's a fighter and is still with us. However, her appetite has been cause for worry. She's crazy about Temptations Treats and deli ham (I know, not the most nutritious diet but I'm thankful for anything she eats). The last two days, though, she won't eat. I've offered her baby food, Tiki Cat, Ziwi's wet food, lunch meat, tuna and her favorite treats but to no avail. I understand that the end may be near but I want to give everything a shot before I make that call. So, my question is, what do you give your cat that they just can't say no to? I'd love and appreciate any suggestions!
