I think it's great that you're going to feed the big-little guy more wet food! I hope he continues to like the Sheba. (We went through weight issues with our previous cat... she, too, failed to lose weight on dry diet food; thank goodness we switched a lot of her food over to wet.)You're right. But my cat needs just a little something to break him of the all-dry routine. He never really eats more than 1/4 can at one time, even the 3 oz. cans, so for him, at least, it's a good thing.
That's interesting that you say Robin's got a food insecurity thing: our cats do/did, too. They came to us underfed and very scrawny kittens, and Edwina, the snowshoe still eats too fast, something that I think is leftover from when they were underfed. (We suspect Edwina was the runt, much smaller than her sister.)Hi LisaHE!
Robin is half snowshoe! Thank you. He is sweet...and vocal!! And he's not a big eater, per se, it's just he has that food insecurity thing. Plus he's just. Plain. Nosy about everything his mama eats, haha.
I love the catnip in a sock trick!!! He would LOVE that!!!
Great idea on the puppy pads! Thank you so much! I wouldn't have thought of that. Meanwhile, time for me to invest in Natures Miracle again!Robin's looking good Keep it up!
I think it's far more likely to be the dog marking outside than Robin marking inside. If you want to be sure, get some puppy training pads and stick them up on and near the door inside - that will tell you pretty quickly who the culprit is. It's not impossible that Robin's spraying though. If he is, it's almost certainly because the dog's presence is bothering him. Some Feliway diffusers might be a good idea to help him chill a little.
