Please please share any diet tips for one chubby cat in a 3 cat household. They measure horses in "hands" and Spence is 2.5 hands wide.

@Alohakim18 feed them all in separate rooms at the same time and don’t leave uneaten portions laying around. My fattie will eat the leftovers of the skinnies if I leave them out. Fatty whines all the time between meals and i ignore him.

@Amyfb this is my exact life! Spence literally whines ALL day.

@Alohakim18 I whine right back at my Smoodge (the fatty). Eventually he wanders off and takes a nap for a while before starting up again. Occasionally I can distract him with a nice brush down, or a wrestle with his catnip toy.

I remember how much I whine when I'm on a diet, and it helps a little to tolerate his grumpiness.

@Amyfb ok, it makes me feel better that you have similar challenges, lol. I do the catnip redirect, I open the door to the forbidden room and will grab a toy to wave around in the background while on a teams meeting. I'll keep the faith!
