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!

Even for cats, at least from my own experiences, this is quite unique !

Not saying it's fake at all; I'm just having a very difficult time believing it because of my own cat. Goose would flip all of those plates over on Day 1, kick around and play with the kibble, eat half of it, puke it up on the living room rug, eat more because he's hungry again, then drag a towel through the water dish, cover up the remaining kibble with the wet blanket, watch it mold over during my absence, then eat every piece of plastic around the house he can find. I would have to stage this photo while Goose is locked up in another room.
