For a change, I have a behavior question that isn't a problem........
We have two cats, both female, both in the 3-4 year range. One large, normal cat (Brownie), one small wacky cat (Skyy)...
We've always fed them Science Diet since that's what the rescue folks had started them on, and they get dry crunchies all the time, and a treat of wet in the morning and evening.
Both are happy, healthy, eat fine, etc.........
BUT, Skyy, ONLY likes NEW wet food. We get the small cans, and when the can is new, Skyy eats eagerly. After feeding them we refrigerate the can to keep the food fresh. BUT, and I'm not kidding here, we MICROWAVE the food when we feed the refrigerated food to the cats... Bring it up to room temperature so her royal highness won't have to eat cold food.... Brownie eats the "used" wet food just fine, but Skyy won't eat the used food! She looks at you like you're trying to poison her! Normally, Brownie eats her treat, then goes over and eats the food off Skyy's plate...
So, in the realm of behavior, this is truly minor, mostly a curiosity... Anybody got any ideas why she's such a goof?
