Andy and Dougy are pretty good about waiting for kitty food time. They have no choice! Anyway, as soon as I get back home, they are waiting by the door, meowing and acting like their stomachs are collapsed from lack of food. Sure, they look fat since they are Persians, but they are, in fact, just right for their age and species, according to their veterinarian. Of course, that doesn’t mean they don’t want that kitty food ~ NOW!
Andy’s ready for kitty food.
Dougy’s ready, too!
Dougy waits patiently. Andy hops on his box. It’s by the refrigerator and that’s where the kitty food is!
“Well??? Where’s the kitty food?”
Yes, I fix them their kitty food, then I can do what else I need to do!
those are two cool cats!
Thanks! That they are!
I’ve started putting extra food out at night with the western time zone cat crew. Sometimes they just want me up anyway!
That was worth a try anyway!
I have also note cat stomach clocks are hard wired to the time zone of birth, and Daylight Savings Time at that. Our two cats (long departed now) that moved with us from Connecticut wanted breakfast at 2:00 AM!
Oh dear! Mine are Western Nebraska kitties that still think 1:30 AM is kitty food time. They were born during Daylight Savings Time (July 1st of 2011), but don’t deviate a full hour either way at the start or end of it.
I hate to think what a shift in time zones would do for my kitties, but your experience suggests not too nice consequences! I guess we aren’t relocating to Hawaii any time soon!
FEED ME!! FEED ME NOW!!! ~~dru~~
Your read their lips! LOL!
Would they eat human food . 🙂

I suppose they might, though only things like butter or cheese broken into small pieces. That seems to be the limiting factor with the kitty boys: food needs to be in tiny chunks, a liquid, or is a pate form they can lick up.
they convincingly
look hungry!
may you feel well
& happy today 🙂
Thanks! I tend to be happy, so that’ll be easy. Yes, and what I didn’t mention is they are looking away from the camera (mostly) in these shots because they are looking toward the spot where I feed them…. LOL!
“We’ll believe you are feeding us when we see the plate with food on it. Now, hurry up!”
interesting that they have very similar
thoughts as my old doggies 🙂
I believe it!
They seem fairly patient. Two of mine, Prancie and Phoebe start fighting when they are hungry.
Makes sense to me! LOL!
They are beautiful!
Thanks! They are at their prime now, though they are scheduled for a grooming session (to get a bath and a haircut) Tuesday the 2nd. If they didn’t mat so bad, I’d let them grow out their hair to Persian length, but they mat even with lots of brushing with long hair.
How do they tolerate baths? I can’t imagine having to bathe a cat. My dogs don’t like it very much
They aren’t fans, I guarantee! On the other hand, they tolerate the hand shower used at the groomers or I’d hear about it. They do seem to like the ladies at the groomers, and vice versa, though Athena (his hair stylist….?!) says Andy sometimes gets bored with the hair cut process and protests a wee bit by going on strike.
Hahaha! Well put! 🙂
I guess we’d worry if they didn’t act like they were starving when we got home!
Perhaps not….
MOL….We feel the same way. As soon as mom comes home she should be in the kitchen toiling over our supper. None of this sitting down and having a cuppa tea.

My cats are tyrants when it comes to food….! LOL!
When I have to go to the city I get back later than usual. They are usually pretty good about it but they carry on just like Dougy and Andy.
I believe it!
