Have 2 cats, male & female. All of a sudden, like a screeching halt,
after
months of eating any hard food of any price level I gave them, they
suddenly refuse to eat anything at all except soft food. A few days ago
we
couldn't find the stash of hard food we had on hand, and picked up a
small
can of soft, and went back to the hard afterwards. They immediately
started rejecting the hard they had previously been fine with.

Thinking maybe the hard food we had left was old--it was 2 months
old--we
bought a fresh box and they started eating it fine, and we gave them no
soft food. But, after about 3 days, all of a sudden they're rejecting
in--and protesting loudly.

Sorry to not be a "cat lover," but I have no intention of indulging
their
pickiness. If need be, I have a cat carrier and can confine them to that
out of the house so it's not noisy--they protest quite frequently and
loudly--until they get the point. I'm not worried about them starving to
death, I figure sooner or later they'll have to eat or else.


Are you posting this to be an ass because what you wrote it sounds just

Damn, Matthew, you and I must have gone to the same school of diplomacy.
That is exactly what I wanted to say.
