Loki's a food hog. He'll eat his in record time and then go hover next to Gracie until she gives up and walks away so he can have her food too so I tend to stick close during breakfast and dinner, when wet food is served. When I see he's finished, I'll cozy up to him and distract him with pets and conversation until Gracie is done and walks away on her own.

Well, Loki got shut up in the bathroom this morning (they periodically follow me in the bathroom and play hide and seek in the tub) and when I noticed, I decided to give Gracie a break. I put down both bowls and loved on her for a second and let her eat.

I'll be darned. She finished her portion and then wandered over to Loki's bowl and worked on his for a while. She almost finished his, much bigger, portion too. I had to put more down for Loki when I let him out and I think Gracie might have a bit of a tummy ache later on, but I really think she enjoyed the peace and quiet while she ate. I might have to do something like that going forward.
