@CEOofmyhouse56 @Seagoon_ You just reminded me of something thst happened a couple of weeks ago.
When we first adopted our babies, wifey used to often give in and give them scraps from what she's eating. I never did.
Fast forward a couple of years.
I'm eating dinner in the living room, wifey's having dinner in bed.
She was joined by all three cats.
Mewing incessantly.
"Why do they always leave you alone at dinner time, yet always pester me for food?" shd asks.
I reply: "Because you trained them to!"
I say to him "I don't hover around when you're eating".
