I know I'm not the only one out there with this problem. But after going on for over a year now myself and the members of my house hold have gotten pretty fed up with the 3 cats antics.

They are OBSESSED with food. They always have been, but this is a new degree. They fight to the point of occasionally drawing blood at meal time, I can't keep them off the counters while preparing any kind of food.
At their meal times I have to split them up well in advance into rooms, even then they sit, stressing the whole time until their meal comes.

The rest of the day they are hunting for food and freaking out on one another occasionally when the prospect of food arises.

In the past when my cats are constantly full they are much more laid back.

However, I want to know WHY this is happening. They've all been to the vet, no problems.

I've tried diet changes, and I'm considering starting a 24/7 supply of dry food again for them.

Suggestions..?

How much do you feed them ? Are you sure they are getting enough to eat ?

I know its bad for your cats to be overweight.But if they are having this bad of a issue over food. Then they must be hungry..If it was me I would leave dry food down for them to nibble through out the day.
