I have a problem with my cat eating wet food. She won't eat it, but she will lick the juice/sauce up from it. However she has no problem eating dry food. She'll eat 1/2 cup of it within a day. But I want to know why she will not eat her wet food. I have tried just every kind of wet food out there. But nothing worked. What could I do to solve this or fix this? Or should I just forget it and leave her with just dry food?
But just a note I really want her to eat wet food because it's nutritious and has important ingredients in there that aren't contained in dry food.
And because of this my cat is pretty skinny -- only three pounds.
If it helps, my cat is approximately 7 months old (older kitten).
Thanks in advance! (link)

Hi - My cat virtually gave up eating her dry food and the only thing she wanted was wet food and would only lick the sauce and not eat the meat, then five minutes later she was crying for more food and the sauce alone was not filling her up. So, I bought a cheap blender for $14. at Wal-Mart that has a "liquify" button on it and processed the wet food with a little water (no more water than is necessary, as you don't want to dilute all the good vitamins and nutrients). I liquify it to the point that you can't see any meat all, just liquid. At first she didn't eat all that much, but now she's eating it really well. I store it in a plactic container in the refrig. When she's hungry, I put it out and when she's done, I put it right back so that it doesn't spoil. Hope this helps. Cheryl

I found a kitten the other day at work, I think it was dropped off there. It is infested with fleas they are all over him. I have given him the treatments that you squirt stuff behond there necks, I have given him a flea bath but they are still all over him. What else can I do to get rid of the fleas. I feel bad because I am leaving him in a rabbut cage thats pretty big in the garage, because I don't want to bring him in the house and get all my other animals infested, so what else can I do to eliminate all these little critters? Any help would be very appriciated! Fast Too! (link)

I hope by now that you got your cat's flea problem taken care of. I noticed some of the different posts in reply to your dilema, and I just want to point out that some flea products are NOT to be used on kittens! I believe that that Frontline and probably any that are applied like that are NOT to be used on kittens. My best advice to anyone who can afford it, is to take a kitten or puppy to the vet when they have alot of fleas (they can die from too many fleas) and let the vet handle it. If you can't afford it, then call a local vet and ask for advice on what to do - they won't mind as they car about animals and getting calls like that comes with the profession. Always read the back of the package before buying any flea meds when dealing with kittens or puppies.
