Tales of A Finicky Feline





At feeding time my cat takes on the persona of chef Ramsay in a third-rate diner.  My cat has always been a connoisseur of fine dining, but nothing could of prepared me for his senior years.    If it's not seasoned and cooked to feline perfection then he ain't interested.  Sorry luv, but the fish is over seasoned,  the kibble not seasoned correctly, the chicken is too dry and the turkey too moist,  so I will be going back to my spot, on top of the clean laundry pile, until you have perfected the dish to my liking.  In the mean time, please ignore the rumbling of my stomach.

 Without a doubt, Chef Ramsay would be proud of my cat's remarkable palate.

I've probably tried every premium cat food on the market, until settling on the Simply Nourish line of pet food sold exclusively at PetSmart.


Simply Nourish Cat food is a high quality premium food that has delighted my very finicky cat


This is a good, high quality pet food that doesn't contain superfluous ingredients. All good stuff.  The food is available in various flavors which is fantastic cause I don't want Mr. Finicky to get bored.  His favorite flavors: Tuna & Potato Stew,  Chicken & Salmon Stew, Chicken & Duck Stew, Chicken & Tuna Stew and Chicken & Pumpkin Bisque.  The Seafood Bisque is hit or miss.  I think it's just a little too slimy.  He also likes the Simply Nourish Dry Kibble.



I was at my wits end before discovering this line of pet food.  You can find this only at PetSmart. Unfortunately not all of the wet foods are available online.  You can find the bisque,  dry food and treats online.  Also available for dogs.

my cat that I used to have loved eating posh cat food, would never even touch the cheap stuff

My cats are finicky as well. Luckily the dog lacks Gordon's refined palate, she often has a cat food breakfast.

anna said...

These look lovely for cats who are a little bit more refined!

Stephanie @ Sustaining the Powers said...

I'm pretty sure your cat eats better than I do. :)

Unknown said...

We have 3 cats and they will all only touch one type of food unless of course you open a can of tuna which they would sell their souls for!!

Unknown said...

My cat is also very picky. She will only eat her canned food on a certain table, and will shred paper or break things if you dont feed her quick enough/

Romeo said...

The idea of being picky is nothing like my former cat; he just wanted TLC when he ate; one had to hold the spoon. Though I admit that was one of the reasons I named him TLC, meaning Tender Loving Cat! he and his brother would hide and make you find them or else they wouldnt eat, ththough that was when I was younger and had all that energy - where'd all that go, oh yeah, I was injured in an accident.

I've always had finicky cats. You give them the same food they ate yesterday and they look at you like "I know I ate it before and I may eat it again but for right now your submission has been rejected. Try again."

Brandi Dawn said...

Lol, my cat is a very picky eater too. It used to annoy me, when I would come home with a fancy treat and she would turn her nose to it. But now that I have learned her taste preferences over the years, I brag about my cats picky tastes because I realize that its just her personality and I love her dearly!

Unknown said...

I have three kitties and they all have very distinctive personalities, likes and dislikes. My fattest cat is the pickiest and my skinniest will eat anything. Go figure!

Unknown said...

Cats can be very finicky, we have four that eat dry catfood.

candy kratzer wenzel said...

My 7 cats will only eat pate. Never tried this brand before. Petsmart is my favorite pet store.

Theresa Deal said...

Yes the picky cat and we love them so. We are their humans after all lol. They train us well. My year old kitty is a bit picky but it is her way of showing love. That I believe is their voice. Us as humans can say hey I like fish or not beef again. Cats have to train us slowly. I know I would have it no other way. Cat person for life.

mytimeczb said...

I know exactly what you are talking about my johnnie cakes likes what he likes, I will introduce this brand to him see how it goes.

Unknown said...

My cat is not super picky he likes most things.

Julie Sherman said...

I have one cat that does not like tuna. In fact, she does not care for most fish! Crazy Cat!

Lee Ann L. said...

My cats like all but salmon. They get these as special treats as these are more expensive than the other grain free wet food. :-)

Alexis Stecz said...

I love to hear other peoples stories about their cats personalities. Each cat has their own taste in food and treats. I was unaware of the healthy cat foods that are available now. Thank you for the information about it.

Debbie S. said...

My cats aren't that fussy really, but would definitely live on cat treats if possible. These products look great and healthy too!

Debbie E Johnson said...

My cat (Holly) is such a pretty cat. She is a Tortoise Shell. Black and Orange. Loves to sit in my lap.

We are finicky, too..like something one day, not the next.. love the pics

cylina said...

My cats would love to eat like this, this stuff looks fantastic for them!

Jeanie Hicken said...

I love cats but I am allergic to them.

Unknown said...

We have one cat who would eat 24/7 if we let her! When it comes to meal time she almost trips us she gets so excited.

Laura Bowman said...

My cat enjoys the finer things in life!

jempers613 said...

My cat complains if her bowl gets more than half empty

Lauryn R said...

My dad actually buys this brand for his kitty too! He is a big boy, and absolutely loves this stuff! Ever since feeding him this brand, he has seemed a lot more frisky and happy as well!

Theresa said...

My cat is also picky, this is good to know about and try! Thanks :)

amy m said...

She died a few year ago, but my very first cat, Isis, lived to be 23, and even when she was very old, she was crazy, crazy, crazy for chicken. Sometimes even now when I'm cooking it, I forget for a second and look for her to give her a bite.

gina said...

Looks like good cat food

Unknown said...

As my cat is becoming more picky as he ages. Unfortunately he is on a prescription cat food for the rest of his life. I wish I could give him another type of (cheaper food or treats.

Unknown said...

My cats love wet food

Unknown said...

My cats have never had anything but dried food. They would be in 7th heaven if they got to try this.

Hopeful PJ said...

I know these products would make the cats healthy and their coats shine. But they are picky and wouldn't eat anything else after they tried this food lol

Asphikenna said...

As odd as it is, my cat will NOT eat any seafood product, lol. Chicken or turkey only.

LesleyfromWI said...

I don't think my cat knows what she likes. One day it is salmon and the next day she won't touch it.

Simple Savings With Lex said...

my cat knows exactly what he likes!

Jill Myrick (jsc123) said...

We have two older cats in our home, one of which has also gotten very persnickety in his old age.
We do however have a Petsmart very close by that I will be checking on this food at. Hopefully it will do the trick for him as well.

my cat is a little bit of a finicky eater so I wonder if she'd like this kind...I'll have to keep an eye out for it next time I'm at PetSmart. I tried for the longest time to find a canned food for my girl and seems she's happiest with cheap Friskies. I would be happier if she liked something with better ingredients but at least I know she'll eat it and not stick her nose in the air and walk away. LOL.

Bonita.T said...

My cats might like this as a treat... not sure I would switch their everyday kibble though!

Diana Scholz said...

Those flavors are excellent! I will have to try and look for this brand for my little Livy.

Irene Newstead said...

Our rescued Lucky Cat will eat almost any and everything but especially loves canned Tuna.

Anonymous said...

I have 2 picky cats and would like to give this a try. It is a very healthy cat food

KateV said...

My vet is very passionate about fish NOT being good for cats- I'm glad they have a chicken recipe!

Mer said...

What a fun comparison! My cat's not that picky; I'm more concerned about what he eats because I want to make sure it's healthy. This sounds like an option we'd both be happy with.

Some Lucky Dog said...

I have one very particular cat and one that will eat anything put in front of him!

Christina Strapp said...

I bet my cat would really like this. She's not very picky, but she does enjoy good food.

Daniel Scott said...

Yoshi is not very picky, but his favorite foods are soft or canned.

rjcqh said...

I feel your pain when it comes to feeding picky cats.

Deanna said...

Ha! I love that cat face. I have 2 picky cats and 1 picky dog. We have to try this.

lilyk said...

Glad your cat liked this food. =) What's his name?

wendi b said...

My cat is very picky about what he eats but if it has cheese he will go to town!... this sounds great i would love to give it a try

Unknown said...
