Bad Kitty

I put Katie on a diet about 2 years ago. What good has it done though? She gets the recommended diet portion of Iam's weight control. But she always seems to be begging for food and has put on more weight. During the summer I attributed the weight gain to her supplemental diet of birds, mice and the neighbors cat's food. Now that it's winter and she doesn't go out much she has found ways to sneak more food.

I came home late last night to this mess in my kitchen. About a week ago she figured out how to get into the cat food bag. I haven't had time to get a cat proof container so I thought putting the food on the counter behind some cookbooks would keep her out. Nope. Here's Katie impressed with her handy work. I swear that cat is like a dog. Had I not cleaned up her mess I'm sure she would have eaten everything and licked the floor clean before I left for work this morning.

    Our cat Kiki was the same way. Except she'd throw it all up later and go back for more. We finally had to put a lock on the cabinet that we kept the food in. Both cats would chew through the bag. We couldn't leave any food out, not even bread. That's why I go with fish. They can't wake you up, make a mesh out side of their tank, and you only have to clean up after them once a week or so.

    That is so funny. I am so sorry Ashley. Life would be so boring with out Katie. She is a piece of work. Hope you had fun at the play last night.

    Katie, Katie, Katie. CONTROL YOURSELF. You need to embrace her weight Ashley - start worrying when she looks like Heath! :)
