Try ANYTHING - it's better than nothing. Sometimes, when they have an infection, they can't smell the food (and that's very important to cats), try taking some of the food, maybe diluted, and use a syringe or an eyedropper to put some of it into their mouth on the side, just to get the taste, they usually start eating!

Tweezer is sick I'm so sorry that Tweezer isn't doing well. I don't really know what to do to encourage him to eat - maybe try his favorite food, I sometimes use tuna or mackerel (supplemented with Nutri-Cal so the cat gets all their viatamins). For cats, the smellier the food, the better. I hope that helps! ---Katy On Thu, Feb 3, 2011 at 7:19 AM, Frank & Sue Koren <fs...@roadrunner.com>wrote: > Tweezer was to the vet yesterday.
