So there’s this rule I’ve developed to deal with cat food. If one cat doesn’t eat some food that you just put down, that doesn’t really mean anything: cats are finicky. If two cats don’t eat some food that you just put down, that doesn’t necessarily mean anything: it could be coincidence. But if three cats in a row don’t eat some food that you just put down, it probably means the food is bad and you should toss it.

The food was bad. The replacement food was a hit.
