Tips for feeding cats a different diet

(I believe Laurence posted something likewise a year or so back on this forum. I always held this in mind and this is what I made of it recenty.)

Bink has a bladder problem which makes it neccesary for him to eat a different kind of food than the other cats. Well I allways have kibble standing ready for all cats because they walk in and out as they please. So that was a problem. It was not good for Bink to eat the normal kibble. And restricting all cats to a certain feeding time or let all cats just eat Bink's dietfood did not feel right. So it was neccesary for all cats to have their own dinner room. And if possible something that does not bite my interior so much.

Anke and Michel are not the only ones who have been working very hard this spring.This is what I made:
I bought a wooden blanket box which looks nice and a nice green little old bench with a lid where you could put stuff in. I cut holes in it with a saw and put flyscreen mesh behind it, painted it, put a hygenic floor in it and a little light. And I bought some petdoors that reads the cats subcutanous identification chip, Petporte. They are installed in the box and bench. Bink has his restaurant in the wooden box and the rest eat their dinner in two different compartiments in the bench. It works very well and I do not have to worry about Bink eating the wrong food.

C'est ingénieux, c'est aussi esthétique. Une bien belle cantine.
