If it's the Felix they like, you could try adding a little of that to their usual food and see if that tempts them..

All the felix i put down yesterday went. I put down some kit-kat and they havent touched it so far. I know every so often they go off there food and they change it. I will try Fran's idea. There back next sunday and i will let them know they are beign fussy at the moment.

Cassie would never touch Kit-e-Kat either.

Maybe they have got the taste for Felix now and prefer it to the other. That's a good idea of Fran's to mix the two.......make sure you really mix it together though, not half on one side and half on the other, or they will just pick out the Felix!:D

It may be a mixture of 'muggy' weather, people gone away and generally being a bit fussy. Are they due back day after tomorrow Sunday? If so I wouldn't worry too much - just make sure they have water. They can live off their fat for a couple of days and will have good appetites when their people are back

Maybe they are missing their owners, so they are a bit off their food???

There back on the sixteenth. I have looked after them for nearly 2 years now so there used to me. The eldest cat mogwhai is 16yrs and she as just started to trust me and if any of the others see me outside they come too me for a stroke and usualy follow me back home they only live a minute away and i can see there house from the living room window so i visit at least 4-6 times a day.
