HI!
I'm new to this site and am seeking help! I have two female cats, Tequila and Sookie. Tequila is about 2 1//2 years old and Sookie just turned 1 in June. All of this has happened after I had Sookie spayed in
Sep. Before that, they both kept to their own bowls and seemed to eat normally. When I went to the vet he had given me a cup for the amount of food that I should be feeding them and I have been ever since.
I feed them dry food and only in the morning before I leave for work and my roommate feeds them in the evening. My cat Sookie has been pretty skittish since I first got her and seems to be afraid of everything
but has slowly come around. About a week after Sookie had been spayed is when the problem started to occur. When I feed the two cats (they both eat in a dish that has two bowls and both eat from the same
one every time), Sookie gorges her food down like she's never been fed! Even when she doesn't finish her food she goes after my other cat (Tequila's) food when she's still eating from the bowl. Tequila has
always had a normal eating habit and still does. Also it seems like Sookie is a totally different cat now, she's been tearing into any kind of bag that has food in it when we're not home or when we're asleep! I've
tired to separate their bowls when I feed them but she still runs to find Tequila's bowl of food when she still has food in her own. I'm not here in the evening on the weekdays to watch their feeding. I don't want
to have to bother my roommate to have to sit there and watch my cats eat. I'm not sure why this is happening? I've always had cats growing up and never had this problem before so I need any advice that
would help!
