貪吃高;Lego is fond of eating

小芥:其實我家是任食制度,養了阿丹12年,總是飼料就擺那,阿丹有空就吃吃,然後休息,想吃再去吃,其實是吃得很隨性。可是樂高是,比方說我倒20g她就立刻把20g掃光,倒100g就立刻把100g掃光,一點都不剩,就算他第一時間無法立刻吃完,他也會在半小時之內解決。然後,他就會去找其他食物,像是葛格碗裡的食物。所以阿丹越來越瘦,因為樂高會吃光自己碗裡的立刻把葛格碗裡的食物也掃光光,那這樣阿丹想吃才吃的時候,碗裡面已經沒有東西了。
Michico : Actually in my house, there is no "eating time", I usually put the food at there let Adan & Lego eat whenever they want to eat. But, I realize Lego is the cat who eat all immediately, like, if I put 20g dry food, he eats all in 3 mins, if I put 100g dry food, he eats all in 5~6 mins, he never left. But Adan only eat a little, and go to sleep or doing something else, and back to eat when he wants to, so Adan finish 20g could be spent hours. And while Lego finish his food, he will find other food, like Adan's bowl, so, he eats all the food in house even Adan's, so Adan is getting thinner and thinnger, because while Adan wants to eat something, there is nothing left, because Lego eats them all.
所以,除了下面墊個碗保護阿丹的關節不用跪著吃以外,阿丹吃完之後我就會倒扣,阿丹想吃的時候會跑來找我,我又再打開給他吃。那白天上班怎麼辦,老實說我也不知道,其實樂高每餐吃的量都是阿丹的三四倍,又一直偷葛格的東西,現在他已經可以將葛格的倒扣的碗打開,把裡面的食物掃光。樂高是得到了小胖威力症嘛?
So, I usually use a big bowl cover up Adan's food bowl, while Adan wants to eat, he finds me and I open the bowl to let him eat, but what happened while I am at office, actually I have no idea, I guess Adan always hungry. Actually Lego eat 3~4 more bowls them Adan's but he still wants Adan's food, now he is able to open the cover big bowl on Adan's food bowl to eat, what happened to Lego?
有時候我會將阿丹的水壓在倒扣的碗上面<碗底端有黏土,固定碗,可以讓碗不會動>,樂高還是會推推推推試圖將那個倒扣的碗推走。
Sometimes I even use this big water cup cover on the cover big bowl, let Lego won't able to open it, but still, Lego push the bowl from the room to the living room.
回到家的時候,碗甚至會推到外面,樂高會推不倒碗的時候才放棄,以前上面沒有壓鋼的水杯的時候,碗甚至會推到沙發下面去,各個地方都有。
When I back home, the bowl even push to outside, Lego will give up when he doesn't have any strength now, if that water cup didn't up there, the bowl even will push under the sofa, just because Lego wants to eat.
為什麼我們會這麼篤定碗是樂高推的,因為常常半夜醒來會聽到推碗的聲音,一開燈,就是樂高正在推,阿丹在睡覺,阿丹不會做這種貪吃又晚上吵人這種缺德的事情 XD~
Why I am so sure that Lego push the bowl? Because I usually wake up by the pushing noise at the middle of night, and I turn on the light, I can see Lego push the bowl, and Adan is sleeping....
推很遠,而且一早就推,晚上我公公跟我說一早就推,讓我很訝異,因為我才倒很多飼料給樂高才出門的,阿丹一歲多左右的時候加上他兩個妹妹,三隻貓沒有一隻像樂高這麼會吃的,竟然想吃的意願到這麼強烈的地步,而且公公還以為是葛格推的。樂高,你真的很糟糕,你葛格已經因為你白天餓肚子,你還讓他被誤會推碗推到地上都是水。我原本想要買定時餵食器,可是大仔說沒有用,這樣樂高會一整天就等在餵食器旁邊,一有飼料出來就會全部掃光,這樣葛格還是沒有東西可以吃,我也有看過案例,有些貓乾脆會把餵食器推倒,直接把上面蓋子打破,吃裡面的飼料,所以我又不敢買了。還好,阿丹晚上我回家之後,就會開始吃比較多一點,他可能也知道要把握吃飯的時間,因為有個小胖威力症的弟弟。
What should I do? I thought about buy the timer feeding machine, but Arion thinks Lego will wait in front of the machine all day, when the foods comes out, he will finish it immediately, the machine still won't work, I really don't know what to do with this fat boy.... hmmmm...... And Adan still hungry at day light, now he knows he has to eat more at night while I am home, I feel really guilty... By the way, if I close the door let Adan has his own room won't let him out, Adan will be angry and pee on the desk...

Poor Adan. He is used to being an only cat and is used to eating when he wants . He can no longer do that with Lego. You may have to put Adan in a room by himself when he eats, if possible. Mickey does not always eat his food right away ,but he has his own room.
Good luck.

真是的...樂高你也太愛吃了吧...
你應該要知道就算你把哥哥的飯吃光光,
打架還是哥哥會贏啦!所以不要用這種招啦!

It is too bad that Lego likes to eat so much more than Adan. I used to eat so much more than Georgia, but now that it's just me and Gemini, I am so used to be shoed away from the bowl that now I have to eat on my own or I do not eat enough...

...完全不懂節制的個性=..=
檢查他的腦下捶體好了...看看有沒有異常...

Cats... >>....

Maybe mix some shredded carrot into Lego's food they suggest. I also read that add some canned food so that Adan can pick off of that and Lego can eat, but give Lego less of the dry food.

Hard problem. I will research.

Karen Jo said...

I really don't know the answer to this. If there were someone there to feed Adan when he is hungry, you could just put his food away and let him tell you when he is hungry, but since you are away, that wouldn't work.

I have 2 cats now and they eat different food (one has food allergies), so when I feed them, I watch them. I take it away when they're done, put it on the kitchen counter, and then offer it when I see they want to eat it. That means I can't leave the food available all the time or else the small one will eat everything!

They will be okay if you're gone to work for the day. It is so much trouble, I know, but like your cats, if I leave food available all the time, the small one will eat it all and leave nothing for Tofu! Good luck!

Angel Simba said...

If you give them wet food when you are there to supervise, maybe Adan will stay and eat more. As he is older, the dry food may be uncomfortable for his mouth. As somebody else said, if you can feed them twice a day while you are there to watch, and let Adan ask for more in the evening if he is still hungry.
Moist food is probably better for Adan's bladder problems anyway.

My brother Tommy looks at lot like Lego...and he eats almost as fast as Lego. What our mom does is to feed us in the morning soft food before work and in the evening more soft food. She feeds us in separate rooms and monitors that we have finished.

During the day she leaves crunchy kibble in different bowls around the house.

Goldie, Shade and Banshee said...

Poor Adan! Banshee is a bit of a pig too. She shares the dry food alright but hogs the wet. The PM has to put Goldie in the bathroom with the door closed so he can eat in peace.

Daisy said...

Harley is a big food-hog, too! Our holistic vet said it is not best to leave food out all day to stimulate our noses and tummies. He told us to feed once in the morning and once at night. Anything not eaten in 30 minutes should be picked up and put away.

Cat Street Boyz said...

Yup, that sounds like Toy!.......We also are fed Merrick canned food in the morning and evening. We only get dry food in small amounts in the afternoon and before bed. Toy is happy with this knowing he will be offered food several times a day so he doesn't have to fill his tummy up like a squirrel getting ready for the winter! Dry food has a high salt and sugar content, also it has high carbs so it can be molded into hard pieces. At least 30% or more carbs but cats should only have 3% or less. Mom had a diabetic cat in the past and he also was addicted to the salty, sweet taste of dry food. Mom used to feed her past cats Tendervittles and there was no overeating. Dry food is cheaper than canned but it costs big bucks if a kitty becomes over weight and diabetic....it was to late for Minty...he died of a diabetic siezure.

Aw, poor Adan! Lego is a piggy~boy. Maybe just feed them at certain times of the day while under snoopervision.

There are automatic food bowls where you can program a time and they open automatically. That could be a solution to your problem, but perhaps Lego is quicker in getting to that open bowl..

Our mummy said no more all-day buffet bec I eat my share of food and my sister's & I'm R-O-U-N-D. We are now fed twice daily (morning and evening) in separate rooms. We are learning to eat properly; sis at one sitting and me, what's on my plate. If sis does not finish her food, she goes hungry & wld eat more at next meal. Me? I'm always hungry ;)

我家因為歐將要減肥
前一陣子大家就一起吃減肥乾乾
沒想到
歐將沒瘦到
卻是瘦到黃莎糖
因為!!莎糖每次都只吃一些些
餓了才想回頭再吃
但有他貪吃鬼黃小林老弟清碗盤
哪裡還會有剩
所以糖糖吃得都很少
再加上是減肥乾乾
果然...瘦了

現在我改了
放飯時看著他們吃
三喵依然吃減肥乾乾
只有糖糖吃一般乾乾
而且我盯著他吃完
免得被小林大頭擠掉

希望過一陣子體重會回來
