Per Dom:

He is now up to 14 lbs, and I refuse to give him more until his late
night feeding, but this goes on all day AND NIGHT. He wakes me at
least 3 times a night. I can't see why he wants more food when he
leaves so much behind.

Ours has strong likes/dislikes food-wise. The wrong brand
and/or the wrong flavor and it won't touch the stuff. I'm
guessing that even though two brands may say they're the same
thing, the contents may be very different in terms of flavor,
quality, freshness... or whatever.

Anyhow, it has us trained to buy the right stuff and give the
wrong stuff to our #1 daughter whose barn cats aren't so picky
if/when we make a mistake shopping.

But that does not address the overeating thing.

Neither does this, but I'll throw it in: at night, we lock ours
in the downstairs rec room where it can stay there or go into the
garage and/or crawl space. Improves the quality of our sleep
significantly.

Can you suggest any brands? I use only fancy feast, but for him I get
Gravy Lovers Fancy Feast, since he licks the gravy.

Dom you may want to try some of the cheap stuff not on a permanent basis
but the more stinker it is the more my furballs love it. I only use the
same as you 99% of the time since I have a gravy eater also


Also how much play time do you have with them You need to wear them out on
a schedule. Also there are times when I am so exhausted that I do close my
bedroom door which is seldom. If you have to close them out of the door and
if they keep scratching at the door a good training item is keep them away
from a closed door is a blow dryer in a remote control
