lagilmanEvery morning, one or the other or both household felines comes forth and yowls in my ear FEED ME! I'M HUUUUUUUNGRY!
So i get up - never before 6am, rarely after 7am, I am a well-trained human - and feed them. One serving of gooshy food each, in different bowls, in different rooms.
Inevitably, as in EVERY DAMNED DAY, CatofSize will finish his food first, and wander over to stare at ElderCat, who is still eating. She, 5 days out of 7, will wander off, because she does not like being stared at. He will then attempt to eat her food (unless I see him and yell).
Meanwhile, 4 days out of those 5, ElderCat wanders over and eats what he left in his dish, so when he comes back - having eaten all hers - there's nothing left.
Cats. Either they're fucking with us for some great alien lab test, or they're just fucking with us.
