Ungrateful boy!

I saw these pouches that were 60 per cent chicken, so I bought 4, thinking
Boyfie would love them.
I gave one of them to him for his meal last night. I thought he would fall
on it with delight. Instead he sniffed at it and said "what the +**& is
that?"
I was so determined that he would like it that I would not give him anything
else. It was still there this morning, so I guess he *doesn't* like it at
all. I threw it in the bin.
His cousin Tigger still won't eat his prawn pouch in the only boxful he will
consider so I'll swap.
I can't even give it to the chickens - they are keen consumers of any left
over cat food, but I draw the line at feeding chicken to chickens.
Ah, well. I thought he would like it and it would be a treat. It turned
out just the opposite. He hated it.

Like when we got Bonnie- the morning I was picking her up I brought a
box of "Whiskas for kittens" when I served her in the look I got
plainly said"You took me from my mum, you brought me to this strange
new place with a huge hulking cat in it but THIS is the last straw!"
Wouldn't eat it at all but ploughed into Sarsi's food (and Sarsi
didn't like the kitten food either so by day 2 Sarsi was mugging me
for a share of a sandwich because Bonnie had eaten all her breakfast!
Bonnie's first nickname rather unflatteringy but totally truthful was
"Gannet"). I know all the books say kittens need different food from
adult cats but alas she hasn't read a book on cat nutrition- so I have
to give her adult wet although as a compromise she will eat kitten dry

Cats are strange that way. Persia won't eat tuna or any other sort of fish
for that matter. The only food she does eat is chicken.

The girls used to be sooooooo fussy about their gooshy food. They
would ONLY eat pate and ONLY very specific flavours. But I give them a
different flavour and texture each day, and they got used to most of
them. They also know that if they don't eat what's in front of them
a)Silver will, and b)they won't get anything different instead...
they're not going to starve without it, it's just their evening treat
(there's all the kibble they can eat in their bowl), and most of the
time they scarf it down.

This is an easy one to diagnose.

The problem was that you bought multiples of the new product. Had you
purchased exactly one, it would have been devoured instantly so that you could
be made to feel guilty at not having purchased multiples.

I thought all cat ownees knew this.
