My cats are such pigs
The foodbank was out of dry catfood this week so I relied on my backup a bunch of canned catfood that I saved just for this reason.

I give them a can in the morning. I know it's enough because after all three have had their turn on the dish there is some left, and they snack away the rest of it.

Then I give them a can at night, and I am sure it's enough. Again, because there are leftovers when all three have had their fill.

But NOOOOOO!!! between 12PM and 2PM they want to be fed again!!!

If it wasn't so bad on their teeth, I would consider giving them canned all the time.

1. actually according to my vet...
Wet food is BETTER for their teeth than dry food...She compares dry food to candy for kitties... You would do well to give them more wet food and less dry food.
However it seems like your kitties are freshness snobs..if it ain't fresh out of the can, they don't want it! Even my greedy brats do that sometimes!

2. Well, that makes sense
My elderly kitty has to work hard to eat hard food, but she does it. Maybe I will consider mixing their diet up a bit.
