QUESTION: Why do they drag the bowls around? Are they trying to hide it from the others. Is it a tihng they inherited from wild ancestors? Harley does not hide food , but his sister Dee does. She will drag towels off the towel bar, rugs or whatever is handy to cover the food bowl when she is done eating. I have had them both since they were 3 months and before that they were inside cats with their previous owner. They were never wild and forced to hide their food from others. Still she hides it. I think Harley is related to Bengal tigers as he loves the water. ---- Natalie <[email protected]> wrote: > I've been using trays under the water bowls for years - sometimes the water > bowls are dragged clear across a large room....I also place bowls with dry > food into larger flat dishes or trays! > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Beth > Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2011 8:34 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Clumping litter = > > I us Totes too.
