The difficult eating saga continues
I'm pretty certain this will resolve in the next few days as it has in the past, but its still very stressful having to convince him to eat his average calories. He is gladly eating freeze dried treats and trying to sneak kibble, just reluctantly eating his regular food flavors. I may go to Petco tomorrow and buy some other brands to try, but in the past he wouldn't show much interest in them and he would return to a great appetite in a few days. It's hard for me to not worry and constantly track and keep a mental tally of how far he is from goal/whether he'll make it to that number. I miss the calorie denseness and his willingness to eat kibble, but know I can't go back to dry food. Fingers crossed he'll get back to cleaning bowls any day now
