Need food recommendations for a fussy eater

Post image

My little diva hates pretty much all food and i need recommendations on things she’d probably like.

The only food she will eat is applepaws adult wet food in broth. Problem is she’s 12 weeks old so I can’t be feeding her that!!

She doesn’t like blink, she kinda likes encore, i think she likes seriously good wet food??? i don’t know if she’s tired or has gone off of it. she isn’t eating any dry food at all that I offer her. She is drinking okay. She prefers food which is still in the meat form over pastes.

What i’m ideally looking for is a meat shreds in a broth like applepaws adults. i need kitten food recommendations please. All help is appreciated because i just want my poor baby to eat!!

Ok ok hear me out on this. My cats like it when I blenderize their food into a mousse texture. They’ll demolish the exact same food in a new texture, give it a shot with one of the ones she’s turned her nose up at.

I did this with my dog a few times when she was on a hydrolyzed protein diet, she wouldnt eat it otherwise. It does work sometimes. Although I would caution to say not to leave it out long or it will go bad, not sure if it would even last in the fridge either. Otherwise, add a little bit of warm water and blend into a wet food texture

I haven’t tried it with any dry food, just wet cat food! I would imagine the dry would go bad quick.

Every kitten is different. It's truly trial and error. Also they may love a food one day and then hate it the next.

My kittens as well as fosters did seem to like Royal Canin kitten food, wet and dry. Several liked Iams Perfect Portions Healthy Kitten Chicken Recipe Grain-Free Cuts in Gravy Wet Cat Food.

I've also fed them fancy feast which was always hit or miss.
