Default A few questions about feeding baby food

I posted yesterday about Thor not feeling well and having to go to the vet. He's taking his medication like a good boy but he's been a bit off his food lately so I've got some baby food for him. I have Apple and Pear pudding, A taste of Apple, Creamy rice breakfast and Banana Yoghurt Breakfast. I wondered if these flavours were all okay? I also wondered how you guys prepare it, do you heat it slightly or serve it at room temperature? It says on the labels I can do either. I'm also not quite sure how much to give him and was wondering if anyone could help me out with a measurement or an estimate? Thank you so much for the help

We tried Thor on some of the Apple and Pear pudding. He had about half of a tea spoon of it and then turned his nose up at it. We're just glad he ate something, it seemed to make him a bit hungry too as he went to his food bowl and took some back to his bed. Loki had a little of the baby food as a treat too and ate a little more than Thor. Just glad it seems to be working

Thanks for the tip dwarfhammys They didn't have much of a selection at the place we went to so we're going to try a big chain store next time and I'll try to find some of the veggie ones like you suggested Going to give banana a try tonight I think.

Ella's Kitchen is a good one, my old ham charlie used to like the banana one, and also the Bebivita apple and porridge which needed making with warm water. So, a mix really. Try out small packs and see what he prefers, I suggest.

Okay, will look for those brands and flavours and see what Thor thinks. Thanks for the advice linford He seems to be enjoying the apple and pear so far, we're trying banana tonight so I have my fingers crossed he'll try some at least.
