Some cats are late-night feeders; therefore, they put on a lot of weight with this habit. It is good to put your cat’s food dish away at night, so he can not gorge himself on food in the middle of the night. Your cat should get fitter and trimmed by removing cat food at night.
Some cats are very fussy about their dry cat food. If you try to feed your cat a different brand of cat food than what they are used to, they will stop eating. I always leave their regular brand of cat food out and place the new one in a dish next to their familiar dry cat food. My cats always have cat food that they love and enjoy eating with this method. I will also mix two brands if they like them equally well.
My cats love cat treats and canned cat food. Their favorite canned cat foods are fish, chicken, and turkey, with no by-products or fillers. I place cat treats in a treat dispenser, so my cats get some exercise while they eat their cat treats.
My outdoor cats keep the pigeon population down. They eat the pigeons on the ground by the area where they roost for the night. My outdoor cats will eat the unfortunate bird that crashes into a window before it fully recovers from the window crash incident. Outdoor cats catch rodents and kill them or eat them.
Some cats will try to eat up the other cat’s snacks or treats. I watch my cats, and I try to deter that behavior. I try to feed all my cats the same number of goodies so each one feels they are being treated fairly. Some cats always have to be the first to eat in the morning. My female cats can be fickle about who they want to eat with and who they want to share with. Male cats like to eat up all they want and let the females eat what is left, just like their wild relatives in the jungles. My cats get their fair share of food and fresh water every day.
