Tango is obsessed with food. The second I walk into the garden, he chases Finx away and stretches on his back legs in case I've brought them something. He eats anything i give him in one sitting, and then takes anything Finx has left. He has even taken things off her mid-chew (although she doesn't always stand for that). She doesn't seem too stressed about it, but she's always liked to graze and pop back later, and now she can't.
A recent vet check showed, not suprisingly, that Finx had lost weight and Tango has put some on. My vet was still happy with Finx, who was probably a little podgy before, but said Tango needs his pellets cut down. I posted on here about it, and found what works best is cutting their evening portion down, and hand feeding Finx an extra portion during the day while Tango snacks on greens.
But he's so greedy!! I think I'm going to have to keep up this routine even when he's back to a good weight aren't I? :roll:
