Just walk over and pick it up, don't make a big fuss about it. Don't let her feel your frustration with the situation. It may take a couple of days of missed meals but she'll come to realize that you're through jumping through hoops just to find a food that she won't eat anyway. She won't die missing a couple of meals. Put it down, take it away in 15 minutes, that's all there is to it. period!
Have you had her teeth checked lately? If she's having pain in the mouth she won't want to eat.
You sound like my vet tech.......are you creeping here on YT??
