The secret to getting Bonnie to eat canned food
This last two weeks I'd given up on secluding Bonnie from the other
cats while I'm at work. Mostly this is because I can't catch the lil hellfire to get her in *her* room and she won't go willingly even being enticed with food... since the pilling ordeal. Well that is all over with and she's peeing normally now and she really doesn't try to hurt Shadow, she just likes to chase him. He taught Shamrock what is acceptable behavior; he'll teach her too. The other reason for the seclusion was because she wouldn't eat her meals on a schedule and preferred to graze. Well we can't have that because while she predominately eats dry food, I can't let her leave food in her bowl uneaten because Shadow will eat it. This week somehow (we humans can be trained, you know) I found out that she doesn't like her food room temp. I was nuking her canned kitten food (all she'd eat, now I can change that, I hope!) She doesn't like it cold, either. She likes her canned food heated to warm! It was just a mistake in leaving the food in the microwave just a little too long but she smelled it and came for it at "feeding time" and ate most of it. Tonight, she ate ALL of it. Wow! |
