Need some food suggestions

For those of you who don't know we have 3 cats, one (Tiffany) is around a year older than the other two and we have always treated her differently concerning food.

What I mean by that is that we leave dry down all the time (currently P@H Purely 70% chicken kibble) and we feed the kittens wet a few times a day but Tiffany only gets one wet serving a day as she eats more dry than the kittens and also is so bloomin fussy!!!!!!

The kittens will pretty much eat anything but prefer meat based foods to fish.

Trying to keep the kittens away form Tiff's food is a nightmare but she rarely finishes a portion of anything and the kittens usually finish off what she leaves.
At the mo we seem to be having most success with Feline Fayre premium white tuna meat and prawns or chicken and ham but saying that she mainly licks any juice off and leaves the chunks.

Today I bought her a special treat of P@H Purely 90% chicken, she won't touch it

I'm out of ideas, even tried human tuna in spring water the other day but she's just not fussed

I know its not the end of the world as she eats enough dry and drinks well but I would really like her to get at least a bit of good quality wet.

We are considering raw but thats another thread, I just wondered if anyone had any ideas of what else we could try?

Have you tried her with Applaws or Natures Menu at all?

Re: Need some food suggestions

Yip natures menu is great for kittens but she's not keen, applaws tins of chicken she used to eat but not last time I tried.

Maybe she just wants something different all the time and once I've gone round the house back to th start she'll eat the first one again?
