you never told me how much they can eat ,
i open the can i give her some and him some ,
he eats his then he eats hers then i give him more
and he eats that , then i give him more and he eats
that so for breakfast he's eating about ,
one whole can of food

He's a growing boy :-) An adolescent, even.

I feed my cats dry. I used to feed them individually,
especially when I had kittens and a cat with a food
allergy. Now I just put down a big bowl of food and
they each eat however much they want.

i put out dry so its available ,
they pick at it throughout the day

Maybe he really likes the wet food even if he's not so
hungry as to need a whole can.

they both prefer the wet stuff and she likes a bit of milk
sometimes , i think they like the wet more because they get
their moisture from it , and now the air is getting dryer
because its getting colder

That can be. A lot of cats don't drink enough.

my guys have lots of water available ,
i catch them drinking it sometimes ,
but you're right they don't seem to really drink ,
as much as you might think they should

I change my cat's water bowl out every day, so she's always got fresh
stuff just sitting there. But it still seems to taste better when I
flush things after taking a leak because I always catch her in there
right afterwards. Gross ***** cat.
