Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 He's a stubborn little guy. He will not even try wet food, he takes his paw and acts like he's trying to bury it all around the outside of the bowl. I'm so happy he will eat dry with water on it. Poor Calli, that was close too.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I'm going to have to try this. We do it for our dogs. I never even thought to try it on cats. One of them steals from one of the dogs so I bet it would go over with her. I have serious reservations on the other but if I could get her to try this maybe I could incorporate canned food in occasionally also. The vet recommended that occassionally we give the canned food because so many of the special diets required when they are ill are canned.
