My cat won’t stop eating her kittens food, they’re 7 weeks old and enjoying small meals and she will leave her food and try and eat theirs. Pushing them out of the way while they’re eating too.
She has more than enough food herself, we make sure to keep her very well fed due to nursing (and she’s a big eater) but she’s intent on getting their food. We feed her a mix of wet and dry kitten food and feed the kittens the exact same wet food, but after a few minutes she’s back trying to get to them.
How can we stop this? We don’t want to shut her out of the room but it’s getting silly having to move her away every few minutes. We’re not in a rush to wean them as they’re not going to their new homes until 12 weeks but now that they’re actively eating we want to make sure they’re getting enough.
