- How about chicken broth on the food? If this works, you could add some

- You might also try feeding her a puppy or performance food.
- Then it won't matter as much that she doesn't eat much. I had a hard time

- or Maintainance pack (slightly more food if the latter).

- Gaia also eats more actively when we have a litter of kittens around.
- It seems that 4 kittens in her food bowl gets her interest. :)
