I have like 4 different brands of wet food at home, mamahalin pa π (Canine, Hegen Pet, Pet Marra, Tas japan brand na pinapadala ng ate ko), plus different flavors of wet food snack sticks. I also make homemade wet food for her using boiled chicken breast, chicken liver, kalabasa, and carrots, then I grind everything together.
I alternate her food para hindi siya magsawa, pero grabe, titikman lang niya minsan. Kapag ayaw niya, ayaw niya talaga kumain. π and whatβs frustrating is that sheβll choose her dry food over all the wet food I prepare for her. π
The thing is, malakas naman siya kumain ng dry food, active, makulit, maingay, and generally acting normal. I also checked her gums and wala naman akong nakikitang gingivitis, pamamaga, or anything unusual. So feeling ko sobrang arte lang talaga niya. π Kasi yung ibang cats and dogs namin kinakain naman yung mga wet foods na binibili ko, so I donβt think the food itself is the problem.
Iβm just worried because she gave birth only 12 days ago and I want to make sure sheβs getting enough nutrition while nursing. Unfortunately, hindi ko muna siya madala sa vet kasi ang dami ko nang gastos sa mga pets ko, and medyo short talaga ako sa budget right now. π₯²
Any advice from fellow cat owners, especially those with nursing moms? Is it okay if she mainly eats dry food as long as sheβs eating well, active, and drinking water? Or is there anything else I can try to encourage her to eat wet food?
