It's all about the dog training the human, and the human giving in.
Finicky cat how to#
With dogs, it is common knowledge that a picky dog is spoiled and has its owners trained, and that if you set the food down, (even for a dog that has learned how to manipulate its owner into giving it the wrong foods), it will eat in a day or two when it gets hungry enough and realizes that no one is going to give in and keep swapping out foods. Surely cats in the wild have, for millions of years, eaten extremely varied diets based on whatever they can catch or forage each day. In my mind, its like a toddler crying at each healthy meal because they want to eat Fruit Loops and Ice Cream instead of a chicken salad.

Giving away very expensive, high quality foods and switching to bottom shelf junk food filled with sugars, dyes and chemical flavors because the cats want to eat the junk food instead. I see people jumping from brand to brand, throwing food away and going to extremes to cater to their cat's pickiness. I cant help but notice over and over how cat owners constantly say their cat is picky, it wont eat a certain food brand due to a slight variation in texture, or flavor, etc.

I have been a dog person my entire life, and I am here researching and learning before my new kitten arrives in a month or two.
