She really does need to be on K/D, NF, or a diet created for her by a board certified veterinary nutritionist. If she will only eat homecooked, then this consult should be done immediately. Feeding the wrong foods may just make things worse.
I am trying to get her to eat the K/D she does not like. I am trying to get the Purina NF locally because a few people (especially Lady Jane ) said their pickier eaters have eaten it. If need be I will order over the Internet. My vet will give a script. She is already off the Blue Buffalo. I am trying to get her to eat the special diet but any food at this point is better than her not eating at all.
