Liquid-ish food for fussy cat

[floofycroissant]

Mines just had 3 teeth removed and is struggling to eat his regular sheba gravy sachets. I can get him to take his medicine with lick-e-lix. Are there any food brands with the same texture?

Would they manage pate style food and you could mash it with a fork?

Thanks I think it'd have to be very liquid pate. I've tried him on the blocks before and he wouldn't touch them

Gourmet gold do a pate with gravy in it called melting heart, would that be any good? You could possibly add a bit of water to it to make it more mushy?

When our cat had her last dental she had those cat soups but tbh she would just lick the juice and leave the rest of it.

Royal canin does a kitten mousse. Maybe that would be even smoother than the pate style

When our old cat was in a similar position at the end of her life, I did manage to find a liquid complete food.
It was called Liquivite, or something like that.
It came in big tins (like tinned tomatoes size), and it was very runny, you could even syringe feed with it. And you could freeze it in an ice cube tray and just defrost the amount you needed so it lasted really well even though the tins seemed huge.

It was fairly affordable, if I recollect right. I bought it from the Viovet website - hopefully it still exists.

Mine really enjoys <a class="break-all" href="https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/303205554?preservedReferrer=www.google.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/303205554?preservedReferrer=www.google.co.uk/

Also in fish flavour

The soups are not a complete food and are only complementary so couldn't be used on their own.

I add water to pouches for one of our girls who struggles (and really benefits from additional liquids due to frequent UTIs).

I mash it all up together and she seems to like it. It slows down her usual time ogling it down to steam the other cat's food too!

Oh sorry I should have add they also have whiskers pouches in jelly, whiskers fry food. (At the moment anyways there both fussy buggers, so like to switch it up between different brands every few months).

I also buy tuna in spring water and sometimes when I’m cooking a casserole or something similar, I will keep a bit of the chicken/beef etc back and cook it for them without gravy/sauce.

But realise most of the above probably won’t help in the long term with OPs situation. But my thoughts were if it enables them to get the medicine into Dcat it could be worth a shot.

*dry! They do not have fried food 🙈

Thanks all, he's not had any food or even his lick+e-lix and medicine. He's just been on the bed snoozing all day. He's not an old cat, surgery was earlier in the week and he had a check up on Friday to say everything looked good. He's normally a gannet which is why I'm fretting.
