Lily now only licks the juice off her smooshy stuff. That's no surprise. What IS a surprise - and a complete annoyance - is that once she has done that, she begins digging at the cabinet where her food is stored because she wants more. Now, mind you, she has a full bowl of dry sitting out (which she eventually and begrudgingly eats), not to mention a full bowl of now slightly moist instead of completely mooshy food. Less than an hour ago, I gave her wet food and she's digging at the cabinet. Thoughts?

Violet is the worst at that! She does the exact same thing.....except instead of digging at the cupboard....she taps me. tap tap tap tap tap, she's relentless until she gets more and by that time I give it to her, lol!

I have no advice or I'd use it myself. The only good thing about that here is it never goes to waste with so many cats that love it either way Wink

I feed mine the "pate" style, and when I dump it out of the can, I mix the "gravy" into it so they can't just lick-n-leave like they do with the gravy style canned.

Put her wet food into a shallow dish with a little water. Maybe she prefers to drink her food?

Annie doesn't like the chopped/chunky stuff, so she only gets the pate style. In her case, since she herself is a bit, ahem, chunky, I just put a little bit in the bowl, and smoosh it onto the sides of the bowl so she has to lick it off the sides. She seems to think she has more that way, and it also seems to somewhat prevent the snarf-n-barf that she does at times.

[quote=" snarf-n-barf"
