My cat is a fussy eater. Is it okay to feed her sardines every day?

Question

My kitty has been a little fussy with her food. She used to eat wet food twice a day consistently. She started to reject it and the only thing that would entice her is sardines. I am wondering if it is okay to feed her sardines every day? I make sure to only feed her canned whole sardines in water with no salt or any other additives. Thanks for your advice!

Although good as a treat, sardines do not make up a balanced diet. What your kitty is doing is training you to feed her what she wants, when she wants it. Discontinue feeding the sardines. You can mix a tiny bit of the water from the can into the food to simulate her appetite. Warming the food slightly may also help. Be firm and be consistent. She won't starve herself.
