I have posted before about our 13 year old female tuxie who is obsessed with food. We managed to get it toned down a bit, by breaking up her meals, so more feeding times but the same amount of food. We feet an equal combo of wet and high quality high protein dry food. But since we are now both working from home and have been for over a week, she has taken to crying for food every hour on the hour. Crying like she’s physically in pain. She will stop only briefly. She gets zero response from us. We stick to the normal feeding times. Both of us are constantly tripping over her because anytime we get up, she runs right next to our feet and follows us meowing. I shut her out of the kitchen it did not help! She scratched the door and meowed from the otheside. When we do feed her she gobbles it down in five seconds and then starts the meowing all over again. We have let her outside (on our porch) more, opening the window so she could look outside, I am playing with her more, but nothing stops it. She normally sleeps the entire day (we have cameras), but since we are here she thinks she should be fed every hour, and she would eat until she got sick, there is no off switch. She has no health problems, she was just at the vet a week ago. I am ready to put her in our basement with her litter during our working hours, so we can get some work done. Will this pass? It’s been everyday for 7 days. She sleeps a normal 8 hours at night, no issue there, its during the daytime.
