Begging Cat

[katladyd]

I'm lucky, I guess. Neither of my two has any interest whatsoever in human food. Now, they will beg for temptations or cat food by staring at their dish and then looking up at me cutely. But beg for my food, nope.

I am impressed that there is actually someone who has cats that do not beg!!! There are several of the Clan that LOVE veggies and fruit!!!!

One of the best things I've done is use an automatic feeder for my two guys. It dispenses like amounts in two different bowls. Just before the timer releases the food, a little ding ding bell sounds. You should see their ears perk up when they hear the bell.

So essentially, I've been released from the "duty" of being the food provider. At times, the cats stare at the feeder, waiting for the ding ding.

Of course, they wait for me to come home from work because they know once I settle in, give some rubbies and scratches, they will get some treats. So they know I give the treats; the dispenser dispenses the food for them to eat.

That is cool. I have seen these feeders in pet catalogs. I sort of like the feeling I get when I fill the cat bowls and I am the "star" of the show to my cats. My kids are both grown so I guess I still have that need to feel needed.

Coco Puff would put all beggar cats to shame. Sometimes I think I should make him a sandwich sign to wear: Will Purr for Food. LOL

I guess I'm lucky, Fister normally doesn't beg for food - unless I'm preparing raw liver or raw white fish. Then he'll come running! When I have lunch, he will occasionally jump up on the table, he may just have a quick sniff, but unless I have shrimps there, he can't be bothered. I will sometimes scrape a bit of paté off and he'll eat that, plus cooked ham and cheese. In the evenings he likes a bit of boiled corn.

When it come to ANY kind of food, all of our cats transform into vultures
