Everything About Feeding Cats in a Multiple Cat Household

Feeding cats, especially in a large multiple cat household, is more than just putting some food in a dish and letting them have at it. How and where you feed your cats is just as important as what you feed them.

Cats are very motivated by food and the competition for it can be fierce! When cats share food, some will gobble it up as fast as possible while others may not even be able to get to the food and be left with nothing. Minimizing the competition for food and feeding them nutritional meals they obviously enjoy will help to promote the bonds of trust and friendship between you and your cats.
