How to Transition Your Cat from Wet Food to UntamedUpdated 14 days ago
Thinking of upgrading your cat’s wet food? You’re in the right place.
Changing your cat’s food - even from one wet food to another - can feel a little daunting, especially if you have a fussy feline. But with a slow and steady approach, most cats can adapt with minimal fuss. This guide walks you through a smooth transition, with tips to keep things stress-free for you both.
Step-by-step guide to switching wet foods:
Start with a spoonful
Offer a small spoonful of the new food alongside your cat’s usual meals. Gradually increase the amount over 1–2 weeks.
Mix it up
If your cat refuses the new flavour, try mixing it with the old food. This helps them get used to the new taste and texture gradually.
Warm it slightly
Cats eat with their noses! Warm the food gently to a lukewarm temperature to enhance the scent and encourage appetite.
Use hunger (gently) to your advantage
Try moving to two structured meals a day, without snacks in between. This can make them more willing to try the new food — just be sure they don’t go without eating for more than 24 hours.
Stick with it
It’s normal for cats to resist change. Be patient and stay consistent — most will come around in time, and the long-term health benefits are worth it.
