Troubleshooting
Cat is reluctant to eat the new food
Gradually transition your cat to Harringtons Senior Cat Food over 7-10 days, mixing increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old food. You can also try warming the food slightly with a little water to enhance aroma and palatability.
Digestive upset (e.g., vomiting, diarrhea)
Sudden changes in diet can cause upset. Ensure you are transitioning slowly. If symptoms persist after a week of full transition, consult your veterinarian.
Concerns about hydration
Always ensure a plentiful supply of fresh, clean water is available. If your cat does not drink much water, consider adding some wet food to their diet or using a pet drinking fountain.
