Eating on demand
Our crew gets wet food twice a day, morning and evening, about 12 hours
appart. The automatic kibble feeder also feeds twice a day, roughly an hour after the wet food is served. On the weekends the cats tend to eat less than normal, don't know why. There's always lots of leftover wet food that needs to be tossed. Anyhow, most Fridays I work from home. All the cats sleep most of the day, but Basho wakes up around 11am and then again around 2pm and pesters me for food. Does he do this when I'm not here? I mean, wake up hungry and look for a snack? Or does the realize that since I'm here, I may as well feed him whenever he wants? Victor, closely supervised by Basho who is determined to get an afternoon snack. -- Victor M.

I suppose it depends upon the individual cats (what doesn't?), but I deal with the "munchies" by having dry food available for snacking at all times, and give them moist food once a day. (Used to be twice, but they left most of each meal, and one of them seemed to be getting a bit chubby on that regime.) |
