I have two cats - one is a 8lb taby(Cassius) and the second is a Maine Coon/Persian(Mylo) that weighs almost 20lbs and climbing. I understand that Maine Coon's are a larger breed, but Mylo's eating seems to be habitual. Everytime Cassius goes to eat, or one of us goes into the kitchen(where the cat bowls are kept), Mylo has to go in and eat. He doesn't seem to eat out of hunger, but out of habit. We've been trying to keep him from going to the bowl unnecessarily, but we can't do that when we are at work or sleeping. And when Mylo finishes the food in his bowl, he goes to Cassius' bowl and cleans that out too!
We were thinking of taking the food bowls away when we are not home - would this be ok or would we end up starving them?
Would anyone have any suggestions?????
