A winter solution for us - we sometimes put cans on a radiator to warm them up.

Thanks!  Anything but that smell again!   

(I'm stressed out that I'm still feeding them too much dry food, which is not good for them.  Oh, it was so much easier though.  Tomorrow, I'm going to try some raw food that the local pet store keeps in a freezer.)

Do you think your cat would eat it a little soupy?  My cats have no problem with the temperature.  I feed raw (Dr. Lisa's from catinfo.org recipe) and Wellness canned.  If the raw is still a little frozen, I just add some warm water.  I'm too lazy to let it sit in warm water, plus my cats would NEVER wait that long.  So maybe if you add some warm water to the canned food, that'll be warm enough for him.  Picky cats, have to have their food, mouse temperature.

My new 10-month-old was having trouble eating wet food as well. A friend recommended adding a little bit of water to it. Not only did that help him lick up the food more easily, but I also found it made refrigerated portions much more palatable! Try adding a small amount of warm water & mixing it in real well. It creates a much softer consistency. (You can also try to trick him by keeping an empty can on hand and pretending to open it, so he hears the sound & thinks it's a new can. )

Personally, I was feeding eukanuba because I thought spending a little more would be the best....yeah right! I have since switched to wellness and I can tell you after finding out it's easy to find a good food just by reading the ingredients (at least we hope) I will continue to spend the extra money. My dog...ate the tainted food and ever since I had the thought of losing her to something this stupid I will never put cost infront of good quality. My dog has a funny stomach, so this switch has been difficult.  I find myself trying to convince all the cat and dog owners to switch...alot of people are not informed!

Not sure what size cans you are buying, but you might consider buying only the smallest sized cans if you aren't already. (3 oz) 

We have five cats, and divide one 5.5 oz + one 3 oz can of Wellness five ways at each meal time (and there is still a little leftover). We used to use two 5.5 oz but there was a lot of waste and they aren't fond of refrigerated leftovers either. The 3 oz cans are handy and waste less food.

Thanks for all the tips, everybody!  I like the warm water idea ... put the food in a plastic bag, then in warm water, or just put the can in some warm water.

Another thing:  I've learned that the TYPE of wet food makes a difference.  If it's Merricks' Ocean Medley ... hell, it could be frozen and I think they'd eat it.  I'm going to get more fishy wet foods this weekend since that's what they seem to love the most.

They also LOVE AvoDerm's fishy wet food.

(Btw, the clerk suggested I try Prairie's rabbit.  Uh.  Even the homeless cats I feed outside wouldn't eat it.  Not even the raccoons would eat it.  So, if the kids want fish, they're gonna get fish!)
