Why Life Can’t Be Simpler

It doesn't work if you normally don't let your cat choose their meal times. But cats do develop food intelligence unlike dogs and will only eat what they need - the key is they have to have a reliable expectation that food is always available.

An automatic feeder helps - since getting one there's always good in my cats bowl but she only eats a little at a time.

Ahem, my dog will not eat and save his food for later when he's had too much food lately - I think that's what you're referring to as food intelligence.

He often does this by burying the chicken drumstick under dirt and leaves, which I think is not uncommon for dogs.

Not unlike dogs. Dogs are the same.
