get a cat to eat something it doesn't want to?
I have to give him some special food forr a few months, afterr what happened to him, he's been getting too much prrotein which is turrning his piss to crrystals, but he just won't eat the new stuff and I keep having to feed him the usual.

The difficult thing is that Bobbie only eats Felix. I could put a frresh fish orr bloody steak out forr him and he's beg at the cupboarrd forr the damn Felix.

I think you'll have to start out rough.. put it in his mouth and hold it shut.. that's what we had to do to make a friends cat eat medicine... its tail had been run over or something like that...

I forgot the point: after a while, the cat just ate it if we put it in its dish...

i think that artificial flavourings is a bad idea, cant be good for it. mix the new stuff with felix bit by bit, gradually he should start to like it aswell

if you don't give him anything else eventually he'll have to eat it, right?

yeah, that method does worrk, but it's too strressful, sometimes he'll go a full day without eating it which can't be good forr him. and he just pesterrs me.

My dad spoiled the family dog with scraps and proper meat until he wouldn't eat anything else. The vet told us that he was over-weight and just to feed him one and a half tins of dog food a day. He wouldn't eat it at first, but after a couple of days starving, he now wolfs it down.

Yeah, but it doesn't worrk. Cats arre just too smarrt. If you put a whole tablet into theirr food you'll find it at the bottom of an otherrwise empty bowl. He just eats the Felix.
The best idea is to mix the two foods, starrting mainly with Felix and just slowly fazing it out, I think...

Our dog is a little Blue Rose spaniel, and he eats as much as a Saint Bernard. He looks at me and whines when I'm eating and I'm already feeding him two tins of dogfood a day.
