Exercising extreme caution while placing the
food dish....
I don't expect this towel trick to work for
very long.
Soon you'll throw the towel and they'll just
sit and watch you instead..
It could go two ways--they may also start
to believe the towel throw is required for
the food to appear.
My little dummy used to believe that the dry
food had to be poured onto the top of her
head--she would shut her eyes, flatten her
ears and stick her head in the empty bowl.
edit: [cat tax]
That black one hit the dish so hard he bounced
off of it.
Bonk
Holy shut!
Those cats act like they learned their dinnertime
manners from dogs, lol..
My cat is like that too.
I had to get her an auto feeder so I can split
up her food in smaller batches otherwise she
just chowed down her whole bowl then puked.
Whenever that thing turns she takes off like
a jet like she has not eaten in days lol.
Sweet Jesus ..they act just like me at supper
time.
The local Wendy's finally learned that my
loud meowing screeches mean give me a Dave's
double combo.
how many hours has it been since last fed,
you monster?
1? lol.
Cats are good at many things and pretending
to be starving is very high up on the list,
as they go door to door looking pathetic and
being rewarded with Awww, don't they feed
you?
Here you go...
Cats: What about breakfast?
Human: You've already had it.
Cat: We've had one, yes.
... Other cat: I don't think he knows about
second breakfast.
Cat: What about elevenses?
... Other cat: I wouldn't count on it.. throws
apple
Awesome move!
Looks like you’ve got this feeding thing
down to a science..
It's funny how some cats are so effing gassed
up about food and some just sniff it and walk
away.
ANIMALS!
when you haven’t eaten in a hour.
Found the cat
Reminds me of Jurassic Park when they try
to distract the T-Rex with the flares.. maybe
they based T-rex behavior from a cat
Either they're really hungry or you're feeding
them Friskies, seafood and methamphetamines
mix.
Son of a bee got us again!!
Like they've never eaten since birth
Here, kitty kitty...aw, shut.

It's like that velociraptor training scene
from Jurassic World
One day you’ll accidentally throw the dish
and place the towel on the ground
Serious question.
Can you train cats?
I assume you can.
They're an intelligent animal.
I've never owned cats, but I have had dogs
all my life and they have all been exceptionally
well trained.
I learned how to train a dog properly from
my dad because when I was born he already
had a 2 year old Lab that was already trained
to retrieve birds.
I learned how to control my voice and use
key signal words.
When I feed my 3 dogs, they like to get excited.
I snap my fingers and say Easy in a firm voice.
They calm down and sit by their bowls.
Surely, you could teach a cat the same thing..
Yes!
You can!
All our cats are trained to a degree.
All our cats were trained to sit in a line
and wait until a command to eat.
One was a ferocious eater and would charge
food and even charge any food you had on your
plate, by the time she was 4 months she was
waiting for food and would sit beside but
not try steal human food or charge to plates
and take food.
All our cats have tricks they can do.
One does high fives and fist bumps, one does
stand on back feet, and one does bounce (though
the bouncy one is old and sore so he no longer
has to do bounce) these tricks we reinforce
with treats.
And they threw it up 4 minutes later..
Bonus points if it's in the bowl on top of
uneaten food lol
I have a similar problem.
I give my three a little drink of milk in
the morning (nothing lavish... about 2 tbsp
each) and they are standing on hind legs and
milling around and not letting me put down
the bowl.
I have a vision of me lying on the floor,
covered with milk and them just licking the
milk off me.
Hey.... that doesn't sound too bad!
Except for the falling down part......
Cute story that I certainly hope you don't
end up falling down on your rump, but perhaps
reconsider giving cats milk.
Unless you use a special formula for felines
then disregard.
A lot of folks do not know cow's milk bad
for their digestive system.
Thank you for making me laugh so hard on an
otherwise tough day ♥️♥️♥️.
Anyone can put their weariness aside a moment
to appreciate that lil blakki wablam himself
into dinner
r Catswhoyell.
Calm down, dear kitty!
Meanwhile whenever I feed my cats they wander
around for 15 minutes then realize they have
food after an hour of complaining.
By then one of them will have noticed early
and eaten a little bit of all the food so
the other 2 don't get any.
And this is why I free feed my cats.
There is food out at all times so they can
just eat when they are hungry..
And if you have a food motivated cat, you
will soon have a chonky one
Please take caution when cats have this behaviour.
Sometimes they tend to wolf down their food
and it gets stuck and they could choke..
Or they take it down so fast they end up throwing
it all up again.
Man I really hate to be one of those people
lol.
My cats can be whiney assholes but this is
abnormal...
I would recommend leaving out some (kitten)
chow all day for free feeding in addition
to 1-2 wet food meals a day.
You’d be surprised how many calories a kitten
needs when growing.
They eat a lot more and more frequently in
the day than adult cats..
Kittens need so much food!
I fed mine wet food 4 times a day the first
year (had a great work from home situation),
and they also had dry to graze on at all times.
They now get wet food twice a day, and still
have the never-empty bowl of dry, but fortunately
they don’t overeat.
As with anything, YMMV, so just pay attention
and do what makes sense for yours.
I’m surprised they didn’t start climbing
up your legs!!
I had so many pairs of jeans ruined by my
foster kittens.
It really is terrifying watching nothing stand
in their way.
My cats do this at every meal and the effers
are 18 years old.
You monster, starving those poor creatures!!!
How quickly do they puke after eating this
fast?
These cats need training.
Shouldn't act like this

You were a minute late feeding them weren’t
you
My cat will sometimes decide he doesn't like
his food and won't eat for days unless we
replace it with a completely identical bowl
of the same food..
Your cat is probably telling you something.
The dry food can still cause a funky residue
that builds up on the sides of the bowl, especially
if it’s a plastic.
It might need a wash more often than you think.
See also, cats are weird.
r zoomies
That zoom though
Damn do they get fed enough?
Lol
I have two cats, one skinny, one fat.
The skinny one eats like that but then walks
away with some food unfinished.
The fat one takes his times but eats all his
and then his brother's left overs, which is
why he is fat.
Damn bro they need more food
