My mum's cat has always been an over-eater, always pestering and begging for seconds, but over the last, I suppose year and some, she's turned it up to eleven! She's now getting 4x 85g pouches of wet food a day and she'll still ask for more. She's 12 years old and has been wormed recently, and she is a bit overweight but not morbidly obese or anything. She's an inside-outside cat, and she's not not showing any symptoms of age or illness. I live in upside-down land (New Zealand) so we're just coming into spring here.
Her littermate sister has also been demanding more food than usual lately, but she also gets fed raw chicken necks so it's harder to calculate how much she's eating.
So uh, is this normal? Is it an older cat thing? I'm not that worried, but should I be? Any other tips or advice? Thanks.
