Wow! I can't believe that you didn't get either verbal or written instructions about where things are kept and how much and how often to feed her. I'm glad that you visited her today and were able to find some food. I also have to keep my cats dry food in tight locking food containers. Once I had a bag of my RB Pepper's Diabetic food left out and Sky got really hungry so he decided to rip a hole in it and help himself.
