Cats Suddenly Picky About Food
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. Even so, though, what in the world would make them snap like that so suddenly? I know we did give them soft food for a day or two, but for them to readjust to hard food and then suddenly 3 or 4 days later snap back to being picky, just doesn't make sense. |
