As soon as my alarm goes off, if not before, Julie starts in pacing back and forth from the kitchen to the bedroom telling me its time to cover up the kitty face in the bottom of her bowl. Since she only eats dry food I don't need to mess with cans or packages. She won't touch anything but her dry food and her cat grass.
So she gets her little scoop in the morning to carry her throughout the day.

She is on weight management food because she was getting a bit plush...she is just right now.

When I pull into the garage in the afternoon she is waiting patiently on her table, looking adorable I might add. She has to have her dish up on a little table in the kitchen or Buddy will chow down on her food.
I give her her second little scoop and pet her back a few strokes as she nibbles away. She gets elevator butt when I do that.

She and Buddy had separate water bowls but I realized they both drank out of the same on all the time so I ditched hers.

Buddy has an auto feeder because he is a nibbler. She doesn't bother his food at all, but he can't resist hers.
