.OK so maybe she's not AS fat as this pose makes her look, but they both still could stand to lose a pound or two!

Here's one of the most recent pictures of my kitty, River. Look at that face!
Question/Problem: When I got my new kitty from the Humane Society, there was a post-it on her cage that said 'Please only feed me wet food'. But the people working there that afternoon couldn't find any reason for that - no GI problems, no dental problems, nothing in her 'medical records'. So they suggested I mix dry and wet to introduce it. So I've tried that but she will NOT eat the dry stuff. So I guess I have two questions.
1) Any suggestions for introducing/teaching her to eat dry food? They said the wet stuff will rot her teeth.
2) If not, how much wet food should I give a fully grown cat each day? I've only ever fed cats dry so I have no experience with this. It seems expensive.
I don't believe an otherwise healthy animal will actually starve itself to sickness or death only because it doesn't *like* the food offered. It may take a few days for the animal to come around but in my experience, they always have (dogs and cats).
Hi peeps. This is not my cat but she thinks she is. (does that count?). She spends all her time in my house and garden and has scratched off half the paint on the front door to come in. She's always waiting on the front step when I come home and just ambles on in like she owns the place (but not before sharpening her claws on the front mat). She's a real sweetheart and I've called her Girlie as I don't know her real name. I think one of my neighbours owns her but they have another cat. I think she comes to us because she likes the attention.
Thanks, BLS -- very interesting!
We do tend to allow the cats to free graze, so I'm thinking that's going to stop. Feed them when I got to work and later in the evening. I'll have to see if I can get my DD on board with this as she free grazes her older boys (they also eat wet food as well).
any of you girls buy your cats little play-things and find maybe one bothers with one and the other doesn't bother with same thing, etc?
Our D loves the Micro-chip squeak mouse. M is wise, she knows it aint real
and then, any new play thing, it lasts one day, thats it. may was well bin them afterwards.
Whatdya mean only kids sleep with plushies?
-I recommend switching kittens to adult food around 6 months - they are still growing at that age but their stomachs are big enough that they don't NEED the high fat/high calorie kitten food. Most bags will recommend feeding it until they are 1 year old; most cats are fat at their 1st year check up if they stay on kitten food that long. .
Awwww . . . YDW, she's so pretty! Look at her little toes!
