i just had my kittens fixed & now they are hardley eating. what's the best kind of food to buy ?

Answer 1

The vet I use recommends any food that does not contain sugar or preservatives. Classic cat food made by butchers is one that is usually available and affordable.

They will start to eat again once they get over the op, so dont worry too much

Answer 2

we've 8 cats. first of all, the nutrition you attempt to feed your kitty is amazingly some the worst accessible - style of like attempting to feed not something yet junk nutrition for your little ones. in case you or your kin replaced into prepared to receive a himalayan cat, then the least you are able to do is to get a healthful nutrition which includes Nutro or technological knowledge eating routine kitten formulation for it. it will be more suitable healthful, the poop should not be so free or stink so undesirable, and that is going to stay a lot longer. That suggested, there is an elementary thanks to get your kitten to eat the nutrition. in basic terms get some tuna fish canned in water, open the can and pour somewhat some the water over the nutrition. Your kitty should not be able to face up to it. we've executed this with our kittys many circumstances and it has always labored.

Answer 3

Our pets need quality pet food. Read the ingredients list and learn what the stuff on there is and what it does (or does not do) to/for our pets. A quick pet food 101. If the pet food contains corn/corn products or by products it is a poor quality food. Do not pay attention to advertising, they all say there food is great. Corn is a filler that can trigger skin problems. (allergies, skin problems, itching and excessive shedding) By products is anything from an animal not fit for human consumption, including cancerous tissue. Quality foods have meat as the first ingredient. California Natural, Solid Gold, Innova and Merrick are a few of the best brands available.

Answer 4

Try some human baby food--the kinds with meat, especially. Most will eat that when they won't eat anything else. I would say, get some human grade tuna, only it's very bad for kitties except for the rare treat now and then. Baby food would be better in this instance.

I learned the baby food trick, from a veterinarian. Put it on your finger, and let them lick it off.

Answer 5

If they are anything like mine, they are sulking at you for doing this to them. The surgery itself is not horribly traumatic, but the indignity... well, you'll have to pay.
They'll eat wet food, not chunked, well blended. But start weaning them off eating just that quickly or they might refuse to eat dry food again, and that stuff is good for them.
Your best bet, if you really are worried, is to buy a tube of NutriGel and give them a bit every day, as opposed to buying them new food. They will start eating soon enough.

Answer 6

Try them on some wet food for now.
My vet said to give them science diet. This is the second vet I've been to that has told me to feed them both wet and dry food (I've only been feeding mine dry).

My cats seem to like fish. They don't like chicken or beef. They do ok with turkey.

I use to feed them Fancy Feast b/c you can see whole shrimp in it when you open the can (it's pretty cool).

If they continue to have problems call the vet and ask. They might still be woozy from the meds.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

how long has it been since they were fixed? their appitite should return in a day or so post op.... it its not i'd call the vet.

Usually you dont feed your animal 8-12 hours before surgery, so by the time they wake up and come home theyre ravenous.

Answer 8

ask your vet for high calorie or vitamin enriched stuff for the next 2 weeks...

just remember that milk products will make your kittens have diarrhea now... not the best feeling if you have just had your boys cut off or your guts scooped out

Answer 9

Pick up some canned tuna from the crocery store. That is usally what I give my cats after they have been through something that, well sucks.

Answer 10
