I feel like an idiot asking this, but where does your cat eat? Our dog seems to think cat food > dog food, and he'll raid the cat's bowl.
For a few years, the cat has been eating on top of one of our dressers. He can jump up there, but the dog can't. The dog food and water bowl is in the kitchen, in case it matters.
While redoing our bedroom, we found quite the stash of cat food behind the dresser. Even with the bowl being placed in a tray, he still manages to get it everywhere. Obviously, we need to fine a new spot for him to eat, since I don't plan on moving furniture every day to clean up after him.
I'm probably overlooking something extraordinarily simple. Any suggestions?
