Yes, Butterball is finicky. When he was a kitten that little monkey would eat anything. He was stealing chicken, pizza, cheese, whatever he could get his grubby paws on. One day he decided he was going to steal some pizza. He made off with a jalapeno. A few seconds later he was coughing and weezing. Needless to say, he doesn't eat people food anymore. He won't even eat a piece of ham. When was the last time you saw a cat turn it's nose up at ham?

Frank is super picky! He was being fed Iams at his rescue - didnt like it. I brought him Merrick when he came home with me - didn't like it. So now he eats Wellness and he really likes it and he will still eat the canned Merrick.
As far as people food - he has no interest. He wants to come up and check it out but he's not interested in eating it - even if I offer it to him. He does want to see what I'm drinking though. I had a glass of milk the other day and he would have drank from it if I put it down. I suspect he might also be a wino because he was waaayyy too interested in my glass of wine last night. He especially enjoyed it when I swirled it.

Thankfully Elphie will eat anything that isn't tied down. I have picky dogs and don't want another picky child. She gets downright snatchy & grabby over my Klondike bar.

Vladimir hates fish. He only likes beef and poultry. If you give him anything fish, he will take two bites and he's done. He eats Natural Balance and loves his duck and green pea dry food. Venison is his favorite Natural Balance wet food.
He has a pretty sensitive stomach. Nutro brands and Royal Canin give him diarrhea. He always wants people food. He really likes bananas. He's been known to sneak on the counter and steal a banana or two...

Sphyncter would normally eat anything, but seems to have become pickier. Taste of the Wild has been awesome for his diarrhea, but I don't think he likes it. He eats a lot less now and will still look at me and cry even though he has a full bowl. He did seem to like Blue Buffalo so I'm going to try and mix a bit of that in to see if he will eat more. Maybe it's got a better flavor?

Try Wellness brand. It's grain free and Frank loves it. He went through Iams and Merrick and wasn't eating but I tried Wellness kibble and he really likes it. I still feed him some canned Merrick food - he LOVES LOVES LOVES New England Bake (something like that).

I filled a small kitty bowl on Monday and its now almost gone. Id say it would equal about half a cup, so in 2 days? is that normal? Also, she WONT drink out of her bowl. She seems to only want to drink water from a glass and it must be off the ground!? I think I got me a Diva!

Noodle will eat anything you want her to, she's on kitten food and Al is now on adult food and although she tends to prefer the smell of his food she'll eat whatever we put on her bowl - we can give her any brand, any flavour of wet food and she'll eat it whereas Ally is a lot more picky. He'll only eat wet food if it has some dry food/biscuits on top of it, or if it's out of Noo's bowl.....he won't eat ANYTHING else. no chicken, mince, treats, anything! Noodle will do all sorts for Chicken or raw mince. loves it. Al turns his nose up and waits for his Royal Canin biscuits! he's got a much more sensitive stomach than her but he's getting better! As lond as they're both eating and happy and healthy, I'm happy
