One of my cats started doing it, and the other began soon after. They'll
even go as far as carry things from various parts of the room to bury the
food with. They've been known to bring underwear from the bathroom floor
and lay them over the bowls.

I think it's just instinct to try to hide uneaten food, whether they feel
threatened or not.

Another question...

Each time Delilah (7 m old) finishes eating, she paws her placemat like
she
is covering litter. Having seen this, the little one - Stella, has started
doing the same.

Could this be because they were strays and covered up their mice or
whatever
it was they ate? They both eat very well... three times a day for wet food
and a bowl of dry for the night time.
