   How do you encourage a cat to eat?

   • Offer treats or strong-smelling foods such as fish or chicken, if permitted by your veterinary team, to encourage cats to start eating, remembering this is not a nutritionally complete way to feed a cat. Food can be slightly warmed to release aroma.

   How do I Stop my Cat from eating my food?

   • Split their meal into a few bowls, place them in different spots, and see what location they gravitate to most. Try placing the bowls in different locations. Something may have scared or turned off your cat where the original feeding location was, and now they dislike that spot. We are not always around when our cats are eating.

   How do cats decide what to eat?

   • Cats decide what they are going to eat based on smell and taste. Just like many people don’t like leftovers or stale food, neither does your cat. When food sits out, especially canned food, it loses its smell and flavor and gets all dried out.

   How long does it take a cat to eat a meal?

   • Once they are eating only meals, start increasing the amount of food fed at the meal times you want to keep, and slowly drop the “extra” meals one by one. Some cats will transition to timed meals within a few weeks. Some cats may take a few months (or more). The time required is usually related to age. Do not push kitty because you are frustrated.

   How do I transition my Cat to a new diet?

   • Day 7 100% new diet. For more finicky cats or those with sensitive systems, the transition can be made much slower. Be sure to feed in a quiet place when transitioning diets and avoid as much stress or anxiety as possible. Using a calming pheromone in the area you are feeding may also help when transitioning diets.

   How do I get my Cat to eat a bowl?

   • You may have to try several places before you find one that suits your cat and where they want to enjoy a meal. Additionally, try placing a Feliway Diffuser (calming pheromone) in the area where you place the bowl. This will naturally relax your cat. A relaxed cat is more likely to eat than a stressed cat.
