cat not eating her soft food

my cat used to eat her soft food but now she is not eating it. what could be wrong?

Answer by Kate
cats can be what we call fussy eaters, but really it is based on an instinct to vary their food ie not become to reliant on one type of food.

I have written a page about this here https://www.our-happy-cat.com/cat-eating-disorders.html

If I were you I would change the brand or flavour of the food to see if that tickles her fancy.

if nothing will entice her it may be wise to have her checked by a vet just in case she is ill and having difficulty smelling her food (which is what entices them to eat).

Hopefully it is just a change of food required.
best wishes Kate
