Back in January the vet put Buffy on prescription food due to a bladder

resolved that issue. But since she hasn't been eating due to the tumor
in her jaw I said to heck with the prescription food and dished up some
Sheba wet food instead. I was afraid it might upset her stomach but it
didn't. She's on her third helping! I'm so relieved she's eating.

Tomorrow morning I'll give her some of the Rx food again. If she turns
her nose up I'll mix it with some of the Sheba. I want her to be as
comfortable as possible and how can she be possibly be comfortable when
she's hungry? [Rhetorical question.]

It's good news that she's eating. Maybe, although she liked the
prescription food she's associating it with being ill. Whatever the reason
she does need to eat and it must make her feel more comfortable.

Hopefully she'll eat the Rx food in the Sheba. Purrs that she does.

She ate the Rx food mixed with Sheba and is now back to eating the Rx
food exclusively. Perhaps she did associate it with being ill. At
least I know her stomach will tolerate the Sheba if need be to encourage
her to eat.
