that and the surrounding articles of good soft foods, a few options that sound really good!

I hope you found a good soft food for the bubby, and he and you are faring well!

:( Maybe look into wet cat food that has similar ingredients to what you were feeding him before?

And I'm really sorry to hear the news :( *hugs*

nutrical (or nutristat... you can usually find this online easily)... its a gooey palatable... goo... in a tube that you can add to his food... full of calories and good fats... ask your vet if they carry it, or look for it online. and I'd prolly add that to mostly meat baby foods... ham, chicken, turkey, beef, etc, usually listed as "meatx and gravy"

certainly not the best long term diet, but as a last ditch effort it should be thin enough to go down well, and have lots of nutrition.

So sorry to hear the sad news about Bilbo. I'm glad he has such a loving mom. *hugs*

Ah if chicken soup for the cls has wet food that is probably a great idea.
