Ok, I now have a problem related to this. My 5-month old male kitten just spent a week at the vet with a mystery fever-- he's doing better now, so that's not the issue. His eating regimen is.

For the first two weeks I had him, I fed him a combination of Wellness canned and kibble on a twice daily schedule. While he was at the vet, they apparently fed him Purina pouch food multiple times a day. Now when I give him the Wellness canned food, he licks off all the juices and leaves the meat behind. He'll eat the kibble, but I would prefer he get some canned food as well.

My female of the same age would eat at least an entire can of wet food a day if I let her (she eats like a horse), so I'm also concerned about what'll happen as I begin trying to feed them in the same room.

Oy. Any suggestions?
