Sorry I can't tell you if this normal, Maya has been like this since the first day I got her home . (to be fair on her she was found starving in a field). She is a very slow eater though. Her brother Foxy is even worse than her and he has not been fixed yet. He gulps his down, he then moves to Prema's bowl, pushes her out of the way and finally moves over to Maya's. The two females when they eat keep glancing over their shoulder... Most of the time we end up keeping him occupied until the other two manage to have their food.
