Boy, I'm really late getting here today (exceptionally bad night last night) but geez, Kate, I really don't have any suggestions for you on this one, except that it does sound to me like perhaps Maggie just doesn't like her new food. Have you ever considered ordering her food online? This is something I never did but lately, I don't mind ordering stuff that way and my daughter uses online ordering to get her Advantage for her cats........and at quite a discount over Petco or the vet's office. But Denise is much more knowledgeable about cat food than I would ever claim to be and you can always ask Lloyd too, since I know he monitors the board. And I've said this before.........even though Hill's is made right here in my city, I don't particularly care for their food. Too many grains. But I'd try Petco or Petsmart online and order your food that way. Then you don't have to worry about whether or not the store will have it. -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Kate 's message, "Used to she was starving at all times...to the point that she about drove you nuts screaming at you when you fed her..and now she comes down when she is good and ready and is actually leaving a bit of food in her dish..this NEVER happened before......I'm still feeding her the meals broken down into two servings each so she doesn't woof them down, but obviously she isn't woofing them down anymore anyway......
Could the Purina be more filling for her do you think, so she isn't as hungry? She is pooping just fine (actually maybe a little better than before...
I may be (hopefully I am) worrying about nothing, but I'm sure not used to her not acting like she is starving....Josie sometimes could care less if she skips a meal..but Maggie has NEVER skipped a meal in her life!!!!
Ps...at her last visit we did a blood panel and everything was fine then....and that was in March or April....." on 4:24:05 am, Tue, 07/24/07

Try Maxximum (Wal-Mart store brand) Indoor/Hairball/Senior. Its the one in the green bag. Chicken meal and Chicken are the first two ingredients. No by-products. 8 pound bag goes for $10.49. (NT) -- Lloyd, 3:11:36 pm, Tue, 07/24/07
Thank you Lloyd.... (NT) -- Kate, 7:12:23 pm, Tue, 07/24/07
Sorry to hear you had such a bad night Sandy....hope you are feeling better tonight????
the food I ended up getting I can find on-line, so if Tractor Supply quits handeling it, then I'll be able to order it and have it shipped.....I was trying to get away from that because of the cost in shipping, but what can you do!! (NT) -- Kate, 7:14:03 pm, Tue, 07/24/07
