1. Gradually introduce a new way of eating. Cats are stubborn guys, and they need to gradually adapt to new tastes and flavors. Can be used with the original cat food to gradually reduce the dependence on raw materials; Or try to gradually add fewer new conditions to the existing diet.
2. Improve the palatability of the diet For cats that are easy to picky eaters, more taste is the key to determining appetite. Therefore, in order to improve the palatability of the diet, we can try to add some protein-rich meat (such as chicken, fish or beef) and fresh vegetables (such as carrots and pumpkins).
3. Change the recipe If the cat eats the same food for several days in a row, it is a good habit to change the food preparation slightly. Some spices can be mixed according to pet feedback, which can reduce the resistance of cats to recipes and make them slowly start to like homemade meals. This can make it feel that it is eating brand-new food, and at the same time it can get richer and more balanced nutrition.
Considering the taste and shape, cats, like humans, attach great importance to the taste and shape of food. Some cats especially like soft and smooth cat rice, while others prefer crispy and adaptable snacks. You can try to make some sticky cat food, meatballs, patties, fruit and vegetable strips or German slices to stimulate and shock their taste.

In short, for picky cats, please pay attention to improving the palatability, nutritional balance and necessary taste/shape satisfaction of cat food so that they can accept and enjoy more homemade cat food. The purpose is to cheat (slight fraud) in exchange for food that hairy children like or new fruit-like food!
