I'm not sure if you meant that Kiinley doesn't like her food mixed, but does like it separated, or if she only likes it together, but feeding it in whatever configuration works for her to eat is fine. If she is having trouble eating at all, or keeping food down, a wellness/senior check with your vet is a good idea to rule out any health issues that may be causing her poor appetite. You can also try to sneak in a few "extras" such as a little piece of boiled chicken or carrot.
