cat wont eat

Question
I was hoping you could help me with my cat eating problem. i have a 15 year old female cat that will eat only a little of her canned food and then wont touch it no matter how hungry she is.  also she started to paw at the water dish and sometimes just looks at it like she wants to drink but just paws at it then walks away. her teeth are too bad to eat the hard food anymore, but ive been trying to find a canned food that she will eat constantly but she just wont eat anything of tried. she will eat cans of tuna and lunchmeat but i dont think that is good to feed her all the time. Please let me know as soon as you can because she is driving me crazy.  thank you,

Hi - Just do your best to get anything into this cat kid.
Even some cottage cheese - a few teaspoons per day.
You can cook up some hamburger - low fat or 80% lean.
Sure, give lunch meat if that is the only thing she will eat.

BEST wishes...
