Fussy Kittens

[reefgal]

Both of my kittens lick the jelly and not eat the meat. I feed them both on felix as they will not eat any other brand. Are kittens normally fussy eaters or is it just my two rogues.

My two cats (5 years old and 4 1/2 years) do exactly the same! Little monkeys

My mothers cat does the same & I've heard from friends & other people that some of their cats do it too.

Mine don't.

My kitten did the same - she would eventually get to the meat chunks, but more often just licked them until they fell of the edge of the saucer.

I changed her to a completely dry food when she was about 5 months old and she is fine with that.

murph still does that and she's 8 now

welcome to the world of fussy cats!!! Its perfectly normal.. though changes from pet to pet - some prefer to lick the gravy some prefer to lick the jelly!
It will get even harder as they get older... and fussier! So be prepared for trips to pet stores, garden centres, all different shops just to find a brand they will like...

Then feed it to them for 6 months only to find they change their mind and no longer like it!

Always wondered why they dont make bird or mouse flavoured cat food!!

You've got two perfectly normal moggys there. Mine does it......amazing how huge he is,considering he seems to live only on jelly! You could try mashing the meaty bits into the jelly.-then they just may eat it all.

My two still do this except will only eat anything with gravy! They turn their noses up at the jelly!

I've gone through very brand I can think of, Whiska's, Felix, Iams and they're now on that Gourmet stuff and they've been fine with that for a while now, thank God!

They used to lick the gravy off but I mash it all up now and they're actually eating the meat as well now!
