Cats actually prefer to drink from running water. I suggest you get her a water/drinking fountain: ( https://www.petco.com/shop/SearchDisplay?categoryId=&storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&showResultsPage=true&searchSource=Q&pageView=&beginIndex=0&pageSize=48&fromPageValue=search&searchKeyword=&searchTerm=water+fountain )

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There are a few things that you can consider including splitting her feedings into a few a day using the slow feeder. You can look into getting a different slow feeder. Also, you can consider basically throwing her food (kibble) in a room which is going to spread it out and Jackie will have to eat it more slowly. This usually works really well. Good luck and have a great day!

Either kind of wet cat food is fine to feed. Your new cat may have his or her own preferences so you may want to buy both types and see which kind is preferred. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and good luck with your new cat!

Yes, a contact allergy to food or bowls is quite likely, but an allergy to bedding, cleaning products or air freshener could also be possible. I would change her diet to royal canin hypoallergenic which is hydrolyzed in order to avoid sensitivities and change all bowls to stainless steel and rinse them thoroughly daily with warm water

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Ideally it should only be fed as a treat and not a major part of her diet if it isn't complete. I would try another canned food from company: Purina Proplan, fancy feast, hill's science diet or royal canin. Have a good day!
