Thread: Is your pet a 'pig'?

    Is your pet a 'pig'?

    No, I am not wondering if you have a pet pig.

    But, when your pet eats, does he/she eat very fast, and try to steal other pets' food? Or does your pet save his/her food for later?

    Prince eats a little bit and eats the rest later.

    Digger barely wants to eat his own food, he just wants the other pups' food. He has to eat in a seperate room.

    Otis just eats him food, making sure none of the other doggies take any of it.

    Chubby eats his, not too fast. If someone else comes to eat his food though, he lets them eat it.


    How about your pet?

    Huey has a full bowl all day, then he will eat late in the evening or even later like midnight! It's like he forgets to eat because he is busy doing other things during the day.

    No.

    Neither of mine are 'pigs'. They eat their own food at a good pace, and don't try to steal each other's.

    Wicket will save his for later unlike my puppy Waffles. She usually gulps it down depending on her mood. Sometimes, she eats a few bites here and there and will leave the rest for later. (If Wicket doesn't get to it first) But, Wicket WILL NOT share his food....he's a "pig" when it comes to food in general!

    The ratties are huge piggies! They looooooooooooove to eat! They will grab just about everything they can get their little paws on.

    Sammy is a pig too, with terrible tablemanners. When you leave the dinner table to get something he will hop onto your chair and start to eat what's on your plate. When you go to put something in your mouth he will paw at your hand and try to pull your hand down. Thank the Lord we rarely have company over!

    Kai usually eats all his. He's not terribly fast but he is still alot faster than Kaedyn is. Kaedyn will only eat when Kai's around. I guess he doesn't like Kai eating it. Kai however will occasionally have some food left and allow Kaedyn to eat it. Kai eats in his crate; sometimes, Kaedyn will stop eating his, walk over to Kai's crate and steal it from him while Kai just sits in his crate and watches.

    When it comes to treats, Kai is picky. Kaedyn will eat just about anything.

    Sometimes Ginger will gulp hers down, but most of the time she takes her time. And usually has enough for later on in the day.

    Josie she is the biggest pig I've ever seen. She will try and save her food and get Gingers. They have to be feed seperatley now because Josie was trying to get Gingers food. Ginger was getting Josies food. Josie didn't like Ginger trying to eat her food so she would attack her. No more will they be allowed to eat in the same room.

    I didn't vote, since I have the two of them.


    Nala is the pig. She eats very fast and everything.

    Simba is the danty prissy eater. He takes his time eating, lifting his head in between bites. He's also very picky with what he eats.



    Ironic, since you'd think it's be the other way around looking at them.

    Whenever we feed Duke he picks up his Bowl and carrys it out into the yard because he thinks the cat is going to eat it even when she is inside. He wont eat his food if you are watching him.

    When we feed Kally she eats her food nice and slowly.

    Dorian, my gecko goes into a frenzy whenever I drop crickets into her cage. I drop five in and theyre all gone within 15 minutes! I'm glad crickets arent expensive lol...

    Cleo and Skyre (the ratties) will try to steal food from your plate if you arent careful. I had Cleo out on my bed and was eating a sandwich when she came out of nowhere and tried to carry my whole sandwich away with her!!

    Oink Oink!!!

    Oh dear god. Yes! Yes! 1000 times yes.

    My favorite phrase for caicos is:

    "MMMmmm... FOOOD! STICK FACE IN BOWL AND EAT!!!"

    LOL

    And my geckos - well... they're all little hoggies. I feed them canned crickets ... and they all take them from me off the end of a pair of hemostats. My smaller albino female ate 5 LARGE crickets in one sitting! What a little hog!!! *(OINK)*

    Prism also makes a pig of himself. If one of my pythons doesn't eat, he'll eat his mouse, and theirs too. Unreal.
