I agree with Nancy1999. When I started feeding my picky Prince twice a day, he started eatting his food. Think about it, if you are cooking a big meal and are constantly tasting and eatting as you cook, by the time the meal is done, you really are not hungry. So, if you leave his food sitting out all day, he grazes on a kibble here and there all day, then he really isn't hungry.

Another suggestion that worked for my Prince was plenty of excercise! I got him a playmate (Princess) and although she is only 4 months, she keeps him on his toes!!! I let them out in the backyard and they chase each other none stop! Even before I got Princess, I started letting him run around the backyard and he would get hungry and tired! That way, he wasn't so hyper when me and hubby tried to watch movies.

Best of luck!
