When mom and I are both working or when asleep at night, Luna and Mons stay in separate rooms. However, when mom gets home, she'll let Mons out (her favorite). Sometimes, she'll let out Luna. However, she keeps forgetting to close the door or zipper Mons' shelter so that Luna can't get to his food inside there. So Luna takes advantage of this to eat his food since he's such a nibbler.
What pisses me off though is that Luna's been placed on a special food for a food trial over the past few weeks and this crap is $2 a can. I found a store that is willing to order Natural Balance's version of the food for much cheaper. And because she's been eating Mons' food, she's been itching like crazy again. It's starting all over with the scabs on her head. I told them several times after she was caught cheating that they HAVE to keep Luna out of that room (or zipper shut Mons' shelter).
Mom said it won't happen again, but I don't know if she'll actually be more careful. Besides, I am already pissed beyond words that in addition to what I've been paying the vets for these cats (they've gone to the doctor more times than most humans go), I spent all that money on expensive prescription food only for her to cheat and start itching again. What a waste of money.
It's like they're incapable of comprehending a simple request.
Edit: What makes it worse is that I'm a college student. I work full time, but the reason I'm in school is that the job I have now - the best I've had at least money wise and probably can get in this economy - isn't enough for me to support myself without staying at home. So I really feel the hurt with these vet bills and special food because I'm the only one who pays for them. Every cent. All I ask is for some monitoring help. Apparently that's too much for them.
