| You dont want him eating cat food its got too much protein and calories, try putting some sprinkled parmesian cheese on his food or mixing it with moist food but keep that cat foood out of his reach

| Cat food is not good for them. I know the battle, both of my girls try to get the cats food all the time. You want to keep the cat's food up and out of reach. The Parmesan cheese works wonders with Rosie who is a very picky eater!

| Mixing the food with a little yogurt or cottage cheese might work also
