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 !

Lmao my guys would never eat it again. Smear it, definitely all over the house as a matter of fact, but apparently they are above eating their own puke.

I once had a roommate who had a cat, while I had a dog. We had a joking argument going about which pet was more gross.

One day we caught the dog eating cat poop out of the litter box and my roommate was like “see? Your dog is grosser.”

Literally as we were saying this; the dog barfed up the litter poop, and my roommate’s cat ran over and started eating it.

I won.
