Thank you so much for your compassion and insight. I will look up Wedgewood. I think part of her dislike is the fact I'm putting anything in her mouth but it's worth looking into. That's for sure.
She's on Science Diet for cats over seven. She turns eight this month. A previous vet recommended it and our current vet sells it, but not for kidney disease. I'll ask them if they have a different recommendation for pet food. She didn't like Royal Canin.
I laughed when you said that you yelled at your husband after letting loose on Ember because I can relate. Poor Ed. He tries to help and I'm successful when he does but he's not always around or available and once she knows it's around the time to get her medicine, she hides from him as well.
You've given me the reassurance and empathy I needed. Thank you very much for your time. I love Skye so much.
