That Darn Cat

Our kitty Santara is the one on the aniexty meds. We were told to try to make her life as stress free as possible, including making sure she had her own food and water dishes. Her world revolves around the bathroom, which is where her happy pheremon plug in is, so that is where we put her dishes. Mind you, the other set of dishes is just on the other side of our bedroom, on the landing of the stairs to keep the dog out of the cat food. The last two nights, Santara woke Mike up in the middle of the night because her food dish is empty (both cats seem to eat the most in the night - I can go to bed and they have plenty of food, but when morning comes, they are low to out of food). So in the night she walks out of the bathroom and across our room to wake up Mike. Now, if I measure, Mike sleeps about 3 feet from the other food dish. Santara will now ignore that bowl, even if it is the only one containing food, and cry for the new dish to be filled. And Mike, will get up and do what she wants. She certainly has him trained.
