I would love to get a video of feeding time around here
But picture this:
15 cat in the kitchen watching with impatience.
Monte MUST be on the counter with the food. Jim tries the same trick, but too many on the counter makes dishing out difficult.
Scoop dry into 15 dishes. stacked up in the order that they get handed out.
4 cats get canned mixed in to dishes. At the very instant I open the can (without fail) Kim jumps on the counter and gets shooed off. Biddy attempt the same from the other side.
When the food is mixed. we start the rounds.
Fern first, up on to of the highest cabinet in the kitchen. The other cats are scolded if they try to bother her. They are USUALLY good about staying down.
Calvin and Willow have decided that they want to also eat down stairs in the living room so they have to wait until the others are all safely on the 2nd floor.
PIED PIPER route up the stairs.
Bonnie, Mickey, Kim, Jasper, Lucas, Biddy, Ashley, Sterling, Jim, Monte, Amber ..... each in their own carrier, door closed and on to the next room where Rutherford get to eat alone. (Spoiled child)
Charlie will give Calvin and Willow theirs as soon as the others are upstairs.

AND REST FOR A WEARY MAMA.
