Hello all! This is my first post and it’ll be on food questions for my recently adopted, 4 year old cat, Kiko!
Right off the bat at the adoption center, I knew Kiko was a picky eater once I saw the 4 plates of different wet foods, a buffet even, left out for him. The staffs and I figured maybe it was due to stress, as Kiko was surrendered by his previous family of 3, almost 4 years.
Fast forward to today: it’s been 2 weeks since Kiko joined our home and he’s been loving it. However, he is still one picky eater!!!
Kiko would rather starve than eat dry foods. Not only that, his wet food has to be mashed up in pate texture. Even then, it’s rare for him to finish even 3oz of super premium wet food. But get this! The cherry on top is my speculation that he was fed SPAM (!!!! the canned meat made for human consumption) because he went BALLISTIC the first time he heard me pop the top off of a can of spam (that I fed myself). He went wild doing zoomies and meowing like I’ve been starving him forever and even went as far as fetching spam pieces out of the garbage!
Help! Anyone out there with a super pick eater? Possibly one that needs some sort of pallet correction? Any tips or personal experiences appreciated!
