My cat is a 6 year old flamepoint Siamese. He’s very fat (last time I checked 16 pounds) and I have him on a diet and he’s going absolutely nuts about it. He now refuses to let me sleep for even just a few hours without waking me up by running on top of me, scream meowing, banging on things in the house, ripping things up, fighting with the other cat. You name it.
I have him on a very strict schedule with the diet that hasn’t changed in the entire 2 months he’s been on it but for some reason he’s getting a lot crankier about it. He also gets very aggressive about his food now and will bully the other cat off hers if I don’t separate them at feeding time.
He’s driving me nuts. I’m starting a new job soon and absolutely can’t afford for him to be making me sleep deprived every night. He KNOWS he doesn’t get fed at midnight. I never feed him at midnight. But what did he do? Woke me up at midnight begging for food.
I really don’t know what to do. He’s eating 1/3 cup of food daily. I was keeping it at 1/2 but he seemed to just stay at the same weight and never lose so I dropped it down to half the scoop in the morning and half at night.
Am I not feeding him enough? I went by the label on my food container for big cats.
Thanks for your help
