Feeding Frenzy

Aug 13, 2010 10:47

 Pretend, if you must that you have either two cats or two dogs. which shall henceforth be known as Pet A and Pet B. You get Pet A as a 12 week old and have it for 6 months before you decide to get another because you think Pet A will benefit from having a companion. Pet B is about 10 years old and overweight. You decide to regulate how much the pets get because of the weight of Pet B. Pet A is obnoxious and kind of a bully so they have separate food bowls and get fed in two different corners of the room. Even though they get the same amount of food Pet A thinks Pet B's bowl is bigger so he claims it for himself. Pet B has no problem with this so you give him Pet A's bowl. The problem is that they keep switching bowls, eating out of whichever bowl is closer, shoving the other out of the way so they can have the bowl they want, or leaving the food unattended so the other pet eats it so they take the other pet's food.

How much effort do you go to to make sure they eat their food and only their food? If you do what method's do you go to to make sure they eat out of their bowl only?

Based on my dogs and the fact that I give up trying to make them eat what's theirs.
