dinner time!!

[toughCookie]

here's the group eating, Muffin was there too, but didn't get in this pic. what an experience, feeding 5 cats! once they get the food they are calm, but you should see and HEAR them before I can get it dished and put in front of them, once they smell the open can, wow!!

[toughCookie]

and here is Muffin,(actually the only one with manners LOL) now I don't usually like the cats on the counter, but, it seems to keep the peace at mealtime! I tried to feed her in another room, didnt work.

[toughCookie]

oops forgot the first pic.

left to right... the black kitty is Charlie, then is Patches, then is Louise, (eating from red bowl) then is Emma.

Wow, I'm glad I don't have to feed five cats. I bet it does get noisy before you feed them. I bet it's also hard to get them all in one picture. I find it hard to get my three in one pic. Thanks for sharing the pics. BTW are you feeding them wet food again? I know that you were going to stop using wet food and you had mentioned opening up a can. I was just curious.

Great picture TC. Patches seems to have grown a lot, glad he's getting his fair share of food!

[toughCookie]

yes I did start up the canned food again, I am such a wimp! LOL but it is only once a day, they love it for breakfast! 6 or 6:30 every morning I stumble into the kitchen and feed them,what a way to start the day!

and, oh, yes Patches does get his share, in fact, he is a little piggy
and tries to eat all the other cats food. it is unbelievable, they gobble the food to finish first so they can get more, or can then eat someone elses! it is a job to keep them to their own plate! I am going to have to start feeding them separately or something!

I have noticed how much Patches and Charlie are growing, seems to be alot this past week or 10 days, they just seem to be getting bigger each day!

so far, no more problems with Emma's paws, so no pills needed,
(knock on wood!)

Patches still has to be on the anti-biotics or his eyes get bad again. the vet said it might be a herpes virus, not actually herpes, but a type of virus, and hopefully he may outgrow it when he is a few months older...maybe!

Muffin still goes after Charlie and Patches at every chance, I have to keep the squirt bottle ready, and have been keeping her separate most of the time.
cats! can't live with them, and can't live without them LOL

LOL!! WOW!! That looks really funny!

Cute! Nice kitchen you got there! Looks like a new home. Am I correct?

[toughCookie]

no its not but the countertop is about only 4 years old, so thats new, and the dishwasher, about the same time, when we moved in. the old counter was ugly.

[lynnestankard]

my heart goes out to you tc - i find coping with three at meal times enough - but FIVE!! DUH!
GREAT PICS THOUGH - THANKS.

Our cats, 5 currrently, are free feed dry Nutro Max Cat. I make sure they have plenty of food, fill the water dish, and scoop the litter boxes each day. The only time there is competition is when we give canned food at times as a treat.

[toughCookie]

same here, the only time the compete is with the canned food!

[NoahsMommy]

Cute pictures! I can imagine the "chatter" you hear with five cats. Do the "help" you in the kitchen too?
