Weaning

I have been thinking about how to wean Taki.  But she has taken care of the problem herself.  Since I have been back from vacation, when she is in the kitchen, she started sniffing at the adult cat food.  I bought some canned kitten food over the weekend, to be prepared. Good thing:  Monday night, Taki decided to eat canned cat food. She tried the Fancy Feast Grilled Chicken and Liver, so I opened a can of Fancy Feast Kitten Food Turkey with Milk, and she really liked that. She also ate some tuna. I have to think she gave herself a tummy ache.

Tuesday she drank less milk, and was eating canned food. This is good.  Wednesday, she wanted milk, ate some canned food, but wanted milk.  This morning, she was ready for canned food and milk, but when I came home for lunch, she ate some canned food but wanted little milk: she wanted to play.  When I arrived home after work, though she was thirsty for milk.  I had a meeting, and when I got home, she ate some canned food, but wanted milk, right away, and again about an hour later.

I think the vacillation between milk and canned food is a good transition. And, Taki is driving the transition.
