This a bit of an addendum to prior post from a moment ago but I feel like this is a more specific topic. Fiancee and I have a rescued 13 month old male we brought home about 3 weeks ago. He is settling in with our 10 year old female who has led a charmed life. They both get raw food twice a day. She has of course been thrown off by him moving in. Things are progressing slowly but surely but the adjustment has not surprisingly disrupted her diet. She has only been eating in the evening (no more breakfast the past week or so) because with us going to work in the morning, it's difficult to successfully coax her to eat in a timely manner. In the past, the food was placed out for her and we'd leave for the day. She'd consume at her own pace in spurts. On the weekends when we're around, food may get set out for her around 7 or 730 in the morning and she may not touch it for at least an hour or sometimes longer. So now if she sniffs her plate and walks away or eats a bit then walks away, he will eventually find and eat the food if we allowed him to. He eats his whole plate right when it gets placed in front of him. She's used to eating a bit and then walking away without having anyone there to steal it from her. In the evening, we're having to continually pick up her plate if she walks away so he won't eat it, put it in the fridge, then when she goes back to her spot asking for more, we take it out for her again sometimes 3 or 4 times over the course of an hour or 2. All while standing next to her in case he walks up, while one of us is trying to distract him with toys in the other room. Someone suggested leaving it out so he can actually eat her food and she'll learn she has to eat it all at once but we haven't tried that yet. Also, they are eating in 2 different rooms. Thanks for reading and any suggestions would be great!
