Sounds like you feed yours the same way we feed Murphy with the restricted diet, catnip and cat grass, and occasional plain meat as a treat.
The Forza has been great. I just found it on Chewy and have been feeding it to Murphy for maybe 3 years now. His blood and kidney levels have been coming back good so the vet said "just keep doing what you're doing."
I just feel like he has been eating less lately so just looking for alternatives to maybe entice his appetite. I know he's old and could just be in decline but we will keep trying until it's time to say goodbye. He is due for a vet visit though, so we'll see what they say.
Have you tried warming the wet food a little bit to increase the scent? Worked for mine when she was a little grumpy before she got new better anti-arthritis medication.
I always do but my work schedule since June means my husband is the one feeding him and he is too lazy to do the extra steps of warming up the food. :/
The Temptations tubes may help to get more food in? They have a decent amount of nutrient for a treat product (better than the delectibles) and there are some Churu tubes that are pretty good we found on Chewy too. We just squeeze the whole thing into a dish like it was another meal. It's all liquid so super easy to ingest. Our girl, Dorito, had been loosing weight and now she is maintaining, which has made us feel so much better, hopefully her too!
