    My boys are starving!

    At least thats what they tell me!

    I had a box and a bag of kitten chow sitting on a table - waiting for the foster babies. Yesterday I saw Allen and Pouncer co-conspired to get the yummy kitten food out of the box and bag. Pouncer succeeded in tearing open the bag, thereby spilling out all the rich fattening kitten food. Smorgasborg! Both boys flew to the kitten food. I lifted them off the table, put the Kitten Chow into the kiten cage and shut the door.

    I go downstairs this morning. They must have had a picnic last night because the bag is completely shredded and food is everywhere. They figured out how ot get past bars!

    My boys are obviously on the brink of starvation. What else would have prompted them to do such a deed?

    Is this the face of a starving kitty?

    There is alway something about a NEW bag of kitty food! It SCREAMS at them to open it. I know better than to leave a new bag where they can get it.. That's asking for it!

    ROTFLOL!!! Sounds like you need a plastic container with a lid to keep the kitten food in! Tito does the exact same thing. He dug through a bag of Sophie's kitten food - so yummy and high in fat!!

    And oh yes, clearly, Allen is definitely starving. Just wasting away.

    I ended up getting an $8 plastic container at Petsmart because my cat would get into the cabinet and shred his food bag. It was the best cat investment I've made.

    I think all cats think they are malnourished - even 20 lb ones

    Especially when they roll over when they're trying to get food attention: "Oh look at my tummy, it's so empty! Fill it up! *jello wave as they plop down*"

    Kim - Feed those boys!!!

    How funny! I just wonder, is one the 'brains' of the operations and one the 'grunt' man? My in-laws had two dogs that where that way, Alaska was the the brains and would get Hobbes to do all the work for him.

    I learned quickly that I had to get a plastic bin for the food. I caught Remus trying to open a CAN of food lol. I figured it was only a matter of time before he decided to go after the bag...

    Funny thing folks is that there is an OPEN bag of THEIR food sitting on the table next to their dish. In case an open bag looks too easy, and they were really after something difficult, there was an unopened bag of their food sitting on the table too!

    I guess Nutro Weight Management is not as interesting as Purina Kitten Chow? I know there was quite a difference in the cost!

    Not only the face of a starving kitty, but the body to go with it!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Isn't it odd to learn that our Cat of the Day (9 Sep 04), Allen, is starving. Maybe he and his brother can get some more food in Allen's honor, just for today?

    I have a hard tiem believing that this boy is starving


    If he'd stay off the Kitten Chow, then MAYBE we wouldn't need to feed him weight management food in the first place! Ever think of that young man?
