I did a search and read all the postings on this from the past 2 years and wanted to ask if anybody has any new information on scratching around the food bowl like it's litter?? Freddie does scratch around the food bowl after he has eaten and then walks away....it is THE weirdest thing I have seen. Is it really rooted in ancestral behaviors of hunting and hoarding and marking territory? He never did it until after he was neutered at 6 mos. and before he got sick <see health& nutrition-unrelated to this thread>. Is he trying to tell me something else??
