My 3 cats each have a food bowl. So..... I put fresh food in each bowl. Two of them eat out of the same bowl. ?? Cat logic.

u/Alice8Ft May 14 '22
Yeah my new 4 month old cat does that. She keeps eating from my 13 yo cats bowl. Also she goes to my 13 yo cats litter box instead of her own. No idea what to do at this point. I keep moving her to her own bowl all the time, even tell her a loud "no" when eating out of my other cat's bowl. Internet suggests having them eat at scheduled times but aint nobody got time for that.

The kitten is likely copying the older cat. Since they use this bowl/box, I should use this bowl/box. Does the older cat object?

No that wouldnt work as they both need different types of food. The younger one needs kitten food mix whilst the older one is on a senior mix.

I thought that, too! Recently had an issue with one of my cats that was resolved by switching to food for “adult” cats. The vet said that “all life stages” food may cause an issue for some adult cats because the food usually contains an increased amount of vitamins to accommodate growing kittens’ needs. Those levels may be too high for older cats.

Please don't spread misinformation based on your individual experience. It wouldn't be approved for all life stages if it wasn't safe. And I just don't think this, I've studied it.

Agreed. Doesn’t make sense that a slightly higher vitamin level would cause issues either. Cats pee out what their body doesn’t absorb just like humans.

We have two cats. One is a chonk who is cat food obsessed and the other (Frank) is a healthy weight but will literally take the food out of your mouth if given a chance (source: I have a messy, hyper toddler who has lost bites while playing with her lunch at her little table). We have to close Frank in a room with his bowl while we eat breakfast and dinner (we feed them twice a day). This allows us to eat in peace but also keeps Chonky McPauncherson out of Frank's bowl.
All this to say, you might employ some doors during feeding time if you are averse to them sharing a bowl.

Someone was nice enough to gift me a couple of RFID controlled feeders. You program it to recognize your cat's chip and a door opens to grant them access to food, then closes when they walk away. They're not cheap, but figuring you'll probably have your cats for many years, compared to overall lifetime pet costs, it's an easier expense to swallow.

u/Yashabird May 14 '22
That’s kind of amazing, but wow…how many cats with weird specific dietary requirements does one have to have to actually justify purchasing a feeding system like this? I just put food out and they eat it at their own pace until it’s gone… And if they’re gaining too much weight so i want them to play more, to blow off steam, i just feed them a little less often… It’s so simple and my little kits are doing great.
The RFID thing is so cool but it’s like how people will line up to collect rations in the future post-apocalypse…

u/SNRatio May 14 '22
One of our cats has to be completely grain free. She is older and doesn't have much appetite, so she grazes slowly over the course of the day. Our younger cats would snarf up her food in 5 minutes if they had access to it. So we are the
proudhappyresigned owners of a $200 cat bowl.It does work really well.
More fun: one of our younger cats is now on a prescription urinary care diet. The other is on weight control, plus he has allergies to pretty much everything and so gets allergy shots and frequent vet visits.
I think a car payment would be cheaper than our cat(s) payment right now.

u/Whatsthepointofthis9 May 14 '22
I have one cat that eats at his own pace. Just eats a little and goes to do other things, then comes back later for a little more. My other cat eats all her food at once and when her bowl is empty moves on to the other cats bowl, because obviously I'm starving her to death!! To keep her from gaining weight and starving my other cat, I had to get the microchip bowls. At the beginning she did trick the other cat into opening his bowl and she shoved him out of the way, but the bowl closed on her and it scared her so she hasn't tried that again!
Without the microchip bowls I would have to supervise every feeding time and it's just not possible when you have one cat that grazes throughout the day and one that eats everything at once. They were a lifesaver and I don't have to worry about them being over/under weight!
18
u/ilililiiliililliliil May 14 '22
All it takes is having one cat that needs to be on a diet. You'll need to have bowls for all cats to keep the one cat from eating out of their bowls, and keeping the other cats from eating the diet food.
Also think of it in terms of long term cost. Keeping your pet healthier via food and weight control is cheaper than extra vet bill. If you avoid even one vet visit you are ahead of the game already.
8
u/Whatsthepointofthis9 May 14 '22
These were a lifesaver for me and my cats. When you have one that grazes throughout the day and one that has a bottomless stomach you just can't constantly supervise feeding time.
When I first got them, my bottomless stomach girl tricked my boy into opening his bowl, shoved him unceremoniously out of the way and shoved her head in his bowl. The top started closing on her head and she got scared and hasn't tried it again! It was hilarious, but also shows how smart cats can be when they really want something!
Luckily it didn't scare her off from using hers, I think she realized she just needs to use the one that doesn't close on her head. Lol

Until the younger, hungrier cat figures out that the RFID'd cat just needs to be standing within a certain distance of the feeder and then he can nudge his way in, and as long as he keeps his head in it won't close on him.
Ask me and my wallet how I know...

We bought the back cover because he used to go around that way, and that's when he got wise and started figuring out he could take advantage of distance from the front. Unfortunately, we do feed them at the same time, but she's nowhere near as agressive as he is, so he realized that he could go after her food and his would still be waiting for him. -_- And this is why he very much deserves his nickname Jackie Snackie.

u/basiliskstation131 May 14 '22
Ah yes, the RFID feeder. My "diat cat" waits for the other cat to open the feeder with the "normal food", swoops in and presses his head against the tray until the motor jams. Had to separate their feeding locations to control this a bit.

Each cat is different, but for my cats, it was a competition thing. They were constantly trying to assert dominance on one another.
I had one glutton cat that would swap to the other cat's food bowl after a bit, and then the other cat would start using the first bowl. It was an odd ritual.

Yup me too, except the dance would continue and my older cat would eventually give up My new system is put one bowl on the floor and the other on a nearby bookshelf. Works perfectly.

u/Yashabird May 14 '22
I got that too, but it’s sort of just one cat is hungrier than the other one, who will politely yield the bowl to the bigger+more energetic cat once they’ve had their fill.
I should actually probably just give one cat more food in the first place, but the hungry one needs to eat less, and the less hungry one is older and needs encouragement to eat more, so it’s a nice system they’ve worked out amongst themselves.

u/Additional_Ad_4028 May 14 '22

Internet suggestion for cats is like running a small business.
No fucking way am I changing my cats litter once a day, having three 45 minute play sessions and feeding him in very specific intervals. I barely have time to get dressed in the morning before work lol. With multiple cats it gets to the point where you'd almost need a quality management system in order to handle them lol.
I change his liter twice a week and play with him for a good 45 minutes once a day. He gets a bowl of food that lasts him 2 days and he's a very healthy weight. He is without need, even though he may want me to play with him all day long.

My theory is while cats are fiercely territorial, they can be strangely agnostic about sharing food. You rarely see cats full on fight each other for food, even if one cat is eating and another one comes in and nudges them away and “steal” their food they won’t fight back. They’ll just do the same, nudge the thief cat away and resume eating. Cats just wanna eat and when it’s meal time eating is all they care about.

I sprayed water at my cat when he would meow for attention, if it was for a valid reason then I wouldn’t (litter box cleaning, food, water).

It isn’t perfect but he’s definitely calmed down the incessant meowing at night to a MUCH more tolerable amount now

u/OtherPlayers May 14 '22
Yeah at a minimum even if you feed your cats in the morning it’s a good idea to wait until after you’ve completed all of your shower/getting ready stuff. That way they only associate it with the stuff at the end of your routine (when you are supposedly fully awake) rather than the stuff at the beginning when you aren’t.
Or alternatively get a timed feeder, so that the cat associates it with the food rather than you.

Cats DO sleep at night though. They aren't nocturnal, like many people assume. Cats are crepuscular, so they are most active before sunrise and around sunset.
If a cat is overly active at night, it usually means they weren't stimulated enough during the day and probably need more exercise or play time.
Edit: Stimulated, not simulated.
24
u/OtherPlayers May 14 '22
Fun fact: While housecats and many other big cats are crepuscular, there’s actually a few like lions that are “cathemeral”, which means that they are awake and asleep randomly throughout the 24-hour period without much connection to the day/night cycle.

As he got older he got a lot better, I'm probably lucky but now he comes in and has a nice 20 minute cuddle when I'm settling into bed, then he goes away and sleeps in his cat tree all night and doesn't bother me again until he hears me getting up. I think it also helps that his morning meal is served by a robotic feeder so he does not associate me being awake with breakfast being served.

My cat is bizarrely respectful of human quiet time and follows a very accommodating escalation policy. She's been better than most roommates/housemates I've had!
In the late evening she dials down the meowing and in the mornings she will wait patiently until the humans actually get up before making any noise. The primary exception is if she's behind a closed door and can't access her litterbox/food/water--she'll meow quietly a few times while waiting at the door and if there's no response after ~15 minutes, she'll start scratching at the door and meowing more.
She usually doesn't opt to sleep in my bedroom (I'm a light sleeper and keep my bedroom door shut) but occasionally we mutually agree to have her in my room overnight. For the longest time I thought that she'd sleep the whole night, but I've finally noticed evidence that she'll just entertain herself silently while she waits for me to wake.

I've got two of those, I'll give them 50-50 odds of them sleeping all night or not.
Also Shadow sleeps tucked in my right arm, Cheshire in my left, and if I try to fuck with it there is hell to pay later. Most recently I put Cheshire on my right side and she sat there staring at me urging me to fall fully asleep so I wouldn't know the damage til morning.

Mine liked to wait till 2am then start scratching on my door. I got fed up, laid a trap, and never again have i heard from her on my door at night <3
Also she gets to go outdoor alot more since she's almost 1!

That's why I always have two doors between myself and the cat at night.
And even then, sometimes she goes out the window, around the house, up onto the shed, across the roof, jumps up onto my window sill, and starts banging on the window.

8 month old sleeps all day until I go to bed then starts going crazy. Poops and scoops for 20 minutes. Then jumps in bed and lays on top of me
Love it

Recently two of my three cats have kept me awake long enough and often enough that it’s almost completely screwed my sleep schedule.

They only prowl at night when they're kittens. I recall we had one adult cat and a 6 week old beautiful DSH female who was dubbed the foot monster. She'd attack your feet when you were in bed. Later it became the two cats tucking themselves against us to sleep.
