Eating more?
-
Thursday, February 05, 2015 4:15 AM
So I've realized my boys are starting to eat a lot more then normal. Normally I fill the bowl every 2-3 days. But here in the last week I'm filling it every day. Any ideas? I thought maybe it's because they now have more freedom being in their own room and all, but I paid attention on my day off the other day, and honestly, they're still sleeping about as much as they used to.

Maybe they are stashing their food.

hmmm I didn't think of that, it's not something they've ever done before. I cleaned the room the other day and didn't notice anything, but I never looked in their box castle. Thanks for the idea :)

I wouldn't worry about it. It's when they stop or slow down in eating that you need to keep a close eye on them. Do you have cat? Maybe the cat is eating the food. Just suggestion.

Do you monitor their weight? Pandora seems to be binge eating and has gained 6 oz since NOvember. But she's always loved soupies. Could be yours have thir seasons confused sue to their birth dates.

Yes I have a cat, but no I don't think he's eating it. The food bowl is on the top shelf of the cage and honestly.... I think Spunky is to big to even attempt to get up there. I'm not saying the cage is small, but the way I have the shelves and their hammocks and all it would be a very tight fit for the cat LOL UncleJoe, I have no clue when their birthdays are. Nimrod has been family for about... 4 yrs now I think. Maybe 5. And of course he was a rescue. Bandit I rescued 2 yrs ago so he's about 4. Wow.... Nimrod is older then I thought he was now that I'm thinking on it.
