We're currently switch my cat's food and litter to try to figure out what's causing this weird mystery allergy she's had for the last like 5 years and I was kinda worried she wouldn't like the new food bcs you never know, but actually she likes it so much it's actually ridiculous. Cuz like when you switch a cat(or dog's) food you have to taper it like a medication, you keep giving them the old food but slowly mix in more and more of the new food while mixing in less of the old, cuz if you don't you can make them sick, and she is SO SO SO mad that I keep giving her ANY of the old food.
Whenever I go to fill up her bowl I first add in the old food and then mix in the new, and while she used to just immediately start eating when I'd pour her food now she just watches me do the first one, sniffs the bowl, and then sits back and stares at me like "uh mother it appears there's been an error" and then when I reach for the other food she looses her MIND and starts shoving her face in my way and meowing and getting all excited and she only starts eating once it's mixed in.
So like, glad she enjoys the new stuff at least!
#also it looks like her allergy is improving a lot but we're pretty sure it wasnt the food lol#bcs we switched the litter and she IMMEDIATELY improved a bunch#but we still dont think we've found the righ one bcs this one still is a powder kinda and it kicks up dust#and she does still sneeze and scratch her ears more than she should#so we're gonna try this pellet stuff next and see if it works#and I guess we can keep getting her the new food too bcs she really seems to like it lmaoooo#I do hope this is it tho bcs the vet told us we could try this hypoallergenic special prescription cat food#AND BY GOD IS THAT SHIT EXPENSIVE HOLY FUCK#like we could afford it if we really stretched things but only barely#so fingers fucking crossed this fixes it!!!!
