We have two female cats, one 4 months and one a year old. At noon they eat about a half cup of dry food each and in the evening (6-8) they have half a can of wet food. They are always very eager to eat and lately one of our cats has started trying to get into the food cabinet. The food is kept in the cabinet above the stove and she stands up on the stove and tries to open the cabinet. We have had to tie the cabinet doors closed and she still manages to weasel a paw in and get food out. Does this mean they aren't getting enough food?
Now they do eat from the same bowl and Maggie (the one year old digging for food) lets the younger one eat the dry food first but I watch and she always gets about the same as Gracie. They both eat the wet food in separate dishes and at the same time. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Oh sorry to keep writing more but Maggie is also overweight and so we have cut down on her food (we tried to keep food in constantly for her to eat on her own but she just ate until it was gone) but it's been a couple months since we did and this just started happening about a week ago.
