I have tried it again since and no go, I read somewhere that you can fast them for a day or so and they may become more receptive to it, but I couldnt last that long with him telling me he is hungry and looking at me with those eyes. Today I opened a can of Felidae and he turned his nose up at that also. Any ideas that don't have to do with starving him, I am to weak for that. |
Cats are one animal that will actually starve itself to death. Maybe you can start by adding a tiny amount of canned with the dry...once he eats it start very slowly adding more and more canned and less dry until you have him eating all canned. then slowly start switching from canned to raw by mixing small amount of raw in at first until you have all raw and no canned. It may take you several weeks to fully switch.
