Also try a water fountain to be sure she is getting enough water.  My guys love 
their's, especially when I put some ice cubes in to bounce around.  Because the 
water is recirculated and filtered, they seem to like it better.  I got mine 
from Pioneer or you can get same thing , different brand and cheaper from 
Amazon.

Another sure fire way to get them to eat is mackeral made for humans.  the 
smellier, the better.  I keep this on hand along with baby food pumpkin and 
also get fresh roasted chicken which I share with them.  While it is still hot 
and smells good, they love it.

Thanks Robert. Bogey is a good eater. She has access to dry all the time and
she probably eats 3/8 cup a day. I also give her Fancy Feast to lick at 2
times a day. Now forcing 3-4 tablespoons of Hills AD and 1 tablespoon of ID.
(She hates the ID) Thanks to you allŠ10 Temptations a day! Since she likes
dry kibble and I know it is harder for her to process, I just want to make
that what I am putting in front of her is not ticking off her liver more.
Yesterday I tried an experimentŠI put Hills Sensitive Stomach, Blue Buffalo
Healthy Living and Blue Wilderness, in thirds in her dish hoping that I
could tell which she likes better. She likes them all apparently.

I feel very lucky that she is eating so much. There was just a couple of
days where she had no interest in anything. That was very difficult to keep
up that feeding schedule and I respect everyone who has had to do that for
very long. Just hope I am not feeding her crap.

I am so sorry about your little guy not feeling well. It is truly an uphill
battle isn¹t? So glad he has you to look after him.

Best,
Sherri

Totally agree, Bob. The key is to keep them eating ANYTHING. When their 
appetite is better, you can get more refined with their meals.

Sometimes it runs together on mine too. I have put this on Google
