You won't really have to switch her over to human food if you find yourself a high quality cat food. If you want human grade, then I would suggest something like California Natural- a VERY good food, only has like 5 ingredients and they're all good. I feed either Premium Edge or Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul depending on what i have avaialble to me at the time, they're both human grade and my cats love it. They have done very, very well on it. I wouldn't force your kitty to eat human food if she does not want to eat it, and homemade diets are one of the leading causes of nutrient deficiencies/excesses, so they aren't as good for the pet as people think as most people don't know nutrition ratios necessary for their pets. I would just suggest a really good quality cat food and it should work out alright. Just make sure you don't switch her over too quickly as this will upset her tummy. BTW, my youngest kitty came from the shelter with a bad URI and coccidia, and while she's been on the Premium Edge, she has had perfect body condition. She's exactly the weight she should be and has adequate fat cover, so I know this diet works.
