Eating in Bed? Do you eat in bed? When I was a teenager, and a college student, I ate in bed. Crackers. Chips and dip. What else? But, that is a precarious habit, especially since the reappearance of bedbugs, that I assume may be attracted by crumbs left by eating in bed.
Years ago, I used to feed Haiku at the foot of my bed, because she was intimidated by my other cat, Sake. But, after a while, I started feeding them nearby each other, and Haiku ate okay. Not great, but okay.
Over the past few years, sometimes, Haiku would be lying on the top level of the cat tree we have, and cry, so I would feed her there. That is really a safe option, because Taki would not intimidate her.
Most recently, Haiku has been asking to eat in bed again. Because her eating habits are so fragile, I have decided that I will not deprive her of eating in bed, but she will only get dry food. It is too easy to spread the wet food onto the sheets and linens. I may change my mind, but for now, it will be dry food only.
