My 17 yo cat has not been wanting to eat. To the point that he has distinctly lost weight. Doc put him on a special urgent care food which he'd sample enough of each day, but not eat a lot. I tried most of the expensive, all natural foods that I could find (since Doc is a holistic vet, I figured I could TRY to keep that route). Dodge on the other hand, had other ideas. Turns out he really prefers the cheap stuff. Fancy Feast all the way.. particularly beef with gravy (grilled). He's up to almost 2 cans of food a day and has gained weight. Doc is baffled, though, since his blood work shows extreme elevation in his liver enzymes. He's not yellow, though, and his appetite is improving. Go figure. I just think it's my cat.
This, however, is my daughter's cat. Jack Sparrow. A bit of a bully and attention hog. He's just over a year old. He's big. And Heavy. Guess where Dodger's leftovers have been going?

That is a bit strange. Aren't cats supposed to be food critics? lol
Then again, the cats on the Fancy Feast commercials all look very happy. I love the names Dodger and Jack Sparrow, btw. Definitely unique :)
Dodger was originally part of a trio - Dodger, Dickens, and Oliver. Oliver & Dickens have since passed. Jack belongs to my daughter, guess which disney movie she likes? ;)
I am glad he is doing better. Love both cats names.
i hope they figure out what is going on with your cat...
