The Dry Food wars

This is just a funny little story and will hopefully get a few other funny
little stories about our fur babies and their food.

We feed Delilah and Stella wet food for their meals each day and a bowl of
dry food overnight. During the day, the dry food dishes (2) are kept in a
corner of the kitchen counter by the sink. This was working well until last
night when we heard someone eating dry food. Stella (the youngest) was on
the counter munching away... looked at us as if to say SO WHAT and kept on
chowing. I don't like them being on the counter but that is another
story...

So we hid the food today behind the jars we keep the cooking utensils in. It
didn't faze Stella one bit. Again we heard someone eating dry food and got
to the kitchen in time to see her sticking her paw through a slight gap she
had pushed in the jars and was fishing out a few pieces at a time and eating
them with her paw. It is now under another container that has my husband's
cookies in it but I have a feeling those cookies will go flying shortly as
it enters the path of Stella's food call.

why not just fill the dry food bowls at NIGHT, with the AMOUNT they
are likely to eat, and wash the bowls and leave them unfilled during
the day?

Many cats are fed ON counters, and they're pretty good at climbing ya
know! ;-D

Don't leave full food bowls hanging around, or the cats WILL find
them, and if that's not what you want, just don't do it.
