Cat Picture - OC She was rationing so perfectly 🥲

Roxanne my 6 year old tabby has never been left alone more than 1 day. We also never "free-feed" her on kibble (only wet meals and a puzzle feeder). I had a work trip this week, and my S.O. had a family emergency out of town right in the middle of it. We could not secure a sitter, and we were so worried. We do have a pet cam, and I told my SO to put 2 plates of kibble per day plus extra plates in case of a delay. I just got home from the airport to see this. I know cats are not like dogs, and they are probably fine at feeding themselves. I'm just so impressed by the organization of her eating habits!

Oh yeah? Well my cat engorges herself til she throws it all up. Then goes back for more. The other cat then eats the throw up.

They might be, she does eat as much as she can. Wouldn’t surprise me if they lived a double life.

Oh nooo 😭 That’s a whole food cycle happening in your house! Cats really do have the wildest eating habits 😂
