Re: Fat cat - help!

Just a thought - have you tried pulverising some of the dry food and sprinkle that on top of his wet food?

I feed raw myself, but sometimes my cat isn't as interested (especially if it's straight from the fridge, I think it being cold makes it smell less) and a sprinkle of the Thrive chicken treats on top always gets him going

Might be worth a try? As the others have said, the best thing you can do that will help your cat lose weight is to remove the dry food and all carbohydrates from his diet.

Good luck

Looks like some one already used my multimillion pound idea !

Arh the things some people do for their pets eh? Now I wonder where to buy the kitties hot tub, cycle machine then I got me a kitty gym.

**note** Just to edit it I can appreciate the treadmill idea might be a good rehabilitation tool for sick and injured canines! The idea stil makes me lol alittle tho ^_^

Yes, that's my lovely George in the pic, putting on his best angelic face. He was younger in that one, though.

Coraline, no I haven't tried sprinkling the dried on top of the wet, but I'll give it a go! Thanks for the tip!
