Additions for a picky eater

Well yogurt works! Regular non flavored just a good size teaspoon mixed in with kibble.. lol. Oh- and chicken broth ( warmed) sprinkled.
Okay- other things people have found to work..

Wet cat food or dry cat food. Sprinkle it on top or you can mix it in if they are one of those that eats just the top.

I use however much it takes to completely mix with the dry food (so it's hard to pick the dry out , then add a tiny bit more.

In addition to what others have posted, you can grate some parmesean cheese on dry kibble, or, grate some Natural Balance Food Roll. A chopped, hard boiled egg, green beans, or sardines works pretty well, too.

Re: Additions for a picky eater

I bake boneless skinless chicken breasts and cut them up in small pieces (cubed). I include enough to mix with they dry, for Mel, since he is large, he gets a handful. Buddy gets a about 6 small pieces.

I freeze them in ziplock bags and pull the out the night before to defrost.

One more thing to add, Wellness has a canned food that is 98% Salmon..now my dogs go absolutely wild for this. They will follow me around the house looking for more. It smells fishy, but they do love it!

Re: Additions for a picky eater

I take some chicken or beef, put a little water over it and heat it in the microwave. I put the meat and broth over their kibble.
Also, canned tripe is supposed to be good for picky eaters. It STINKS, STINKS, STINKS - especially heated up - but they like it!
