    Pat, Phesina, had a similar thread, recently.

    I feed them in rooms, behind closed doors. This keep the vacuums away from the pokeys, and the special foods go to the right kitties.

    Been doing this a while, so they all know their feeding stations, now. Initially, I'd put them in their rooms before I filled the dishes!

    Hope this helps.

    I also feed in different rooms, behind closed doors. We have our main "cat room" where most eat together in harmony. We've always had at least 1 cat that needs to be separated though. My Oliver is the only one in the house who eats separated right now. He eats in the bathroom. Oliver very much knows his routine. He runs and waits in the bathroom for his meals.

    I have two areas for food for the cats, one in Jax's room and the other in the dining room. In the morning (on work days) the cats get a small bit of wet food as well as 4 greenies for a treat. While Jax does respect Paizly when she is eating, I still put him in his room during this morning routine.
    Throughout the day Jax eats from Paizly's bowl and she can eat from his. They eat the same food and there is always food out for them. They are both at good weights so I don't have to worry about that.........for now. I might have an issue with Jax eventually. Which would be very difficult since Paizly is fine to be free fed.

    Is it possible for you to seclude Maya Linn during meal times? Or even let her eat with the rest and then put her in a separate room while the rest finish their food.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
