My cat Pickles has been eating my fish food. I try to leave it on top shelves and out of her reach, but some how she always seems to find it. She has even found a way to get the top off. It act almost like cat nip for her, making her a little wonky. She even goes after the bits that fall from my hand as i put it into the tank. It is getting annoying and very expensive. Is this normal, and does anyone know how to stop this?

I'd find a cabinet to keep it in or try a Tupperware container that seals tight to set the food in.

It won't hurt them, but I'm sure you don't like cleaning up the fine pieces

Oliver likes fish food too.... one time I was filling the automatic feeder for my tank and it acidentally fell over and fish food spilled all over.... Oliver ran right over to help clean up - he literally butts his way right in any time I have to take the container out or decide to give the tank some shrimp treats... silly cat

I would try keeping the food container in a drawer or a closet somewhere where the cat would have less access to it
