Hi I am asking again because last time I posted  My little kitten (7 months) was eating my resident cat's food. Zazzy is 41/2 and I just added a new addition, (helping my granddaughters mother keeping my granddaughters cat for a while)  He is eating all of his food ,and Zazzy's too. I had a few months off so for this first 3/1/2 weeks of introductions, I was home able to TRY to keep them apart. That rarely worked, so I just keep my eye out and feed my Zazzy when the baby is napping. I have to work tonight and being a home health aid to elderly , I am gone all week , now my son lives here and loves the cats, he will feed them in the a.m. before work and leave enough for the day and  Pm after work, My fear is that Zazzy will not be able to eat what if the baby eats all of his food all of the time, my son can't do what I do. He works when he get home also. I PRAY that my Zazzy get his food, now the little cat can jump up high with Zazzy that was my solution when I last posted this issue, and the QUICKLY stopped. PLEASE HELP, GOT TO GO TONIGHT TO WORK AND MY ZAZZY CAN'T STARVE.  Do you think he will learn to gobble up his while the kitten is eating his? Plus I don't think Zazzy will eat the dry we leave if he smells, the kitten tasted it? Will he eat it if he get hungry?  I WORRY about my Zazzy anyway and believe me if I did not have to I  WOULD NEVER LEAVE THEM ALL WEEK  TO WORK. again My son will be here all week he lives here. But works, 8-6:30.


 P.S. don't know why the kitten is so hungry all the time , I KEEP FOOD OUT , and feed them wet &dry in the A.M. and Wet and dry P.M. and all day dry is out , but he want's it all. Rather feed too much then too little.

Thanks

Kittens can be bottomless pits when it comes to food! 

Can you close one of them in a room with food when you aren't home?

Can you work it out between the 2 of you to do timed feedings. Feed them before each of you leave the house and then when you return
