Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I am sorry to hear Kiki ate a poison and is still not better.
Personally I think at this stage it is just important to get Kiki to eat. We have Friskies and Whiskas in the US. Cats can't go too long with out eating or they can get sicker. Yes, do try either of those canned cat food brand and once he starts eating well get him back on his old diet.
You can also call your Vet and see if they can recommend an appetite stimulant if he won't eat the canned food either.
Good luck!
