Hi!
I've recently introduced my new cat, Pearl, to my other cat, Abby. Pearl used to stay in my room, so I used to feed her there. But now that she has free run of the house, I have moved her food from my room to the kitchen. My problem is that Abby wants to eat Pearl's food! Abby is raw fed and Pearl is being transfered from Purina Cat Chow to California Natural. Pearl will eventually be on raw, too, after a couple weeks on CN. I just don't want to shock her system.
Anyway, I can't put the food on the floor, because the dogs will get at it. I have it on a table right now, accessible for Pearl, but not the dogs. But Abby seems to think that Purina tastes better than her raw. So she's been eating Pearl's kibble. Everywhere I move it where Pearl can get at it, Abby gets at it too! What am I to do?
I do feed Pearl canned food meals, but she's used to have free run of her dry food. She likes to pick at it through out the day, which is fine, because she's not one of those cats who eats it all at once and gets fat. I also measure how much dry I gave her, anyway. Help! I really don't want Abby eating that stuff. I'm trying to wean Pearl off of it and I don't want to wean a second cat! So, what should I do? Thanks!
