Kittenpants is still spurning the wet food then jumping up asking for wet food - or asking for something :/ It's got bonito flakes, crumbled treats on top and everything. This is a repetitive issue. What's worse is if I ever do get her to eat some of it she gets an appetite and asks for more portions which get eaten no problem.

She might have a little kidney problem induced dementia

She does have some kidney disease, but I was told she was doing really well with it and her kidneys were good... she has had a stubborn extended uti though (still being treated) so I might have to get that checked out.

I'm hoping really hard that it's just nausea from constipation or the antibiotics. And that the jumping for my attention is conveying 'I want something/please fix something' because she's not feeling good. 🤞

Edit: Actually I did hear that utis can cause confusion in in elderly people or people with dementia :/
