Not exactly. I think Loki gets so wound up because it's been a long time between dinner and breakfast and he's still learning how to stretch the dry food from lunch all the way through. Most of the vets I talked to recommended a total wet food diet for them for moisture content but I think they both like the crunch of dry. It's satisfying to them so I make sure they get both.

On a related note, I'm whittling down Loki's calorie intake and maybe that has something to do with his newfound spryness. Maybe he's losing weight. It's hard to tell with him. He would be a giant cat if he was emaciated. I think if I can get him between 13-14 lbs, he'll be good. I'll confirm with the vet at the next visit but I'm pretty sure that would be a good weight for him.

He's still crazy obsessed with food and that's probably going to be a lifelong thing but once he gets to playing or I run them with the laser pointer, he doesn't think about it so much, so I'm doing that as well.
