Why?!

For some reason yesterday lunchtime my cleaner decided to feed my six month old kitten a big bowlful of dried food.

I have never asked her to feed the cat. The cat was fed before I went to work. And really unfortunately she fed coolacat a big bowlful of a NEW dried food that I hadn't even begun to introduce.

So DH and I come home from work to a cat with the skitters. Litter tray was grim.

Cleaned it out before bed and got up this morning to a dirty litter tray again so I was cleaning that out at six am.

Coolacat is fastidious about only using a clean tray, so then I had the pleasure of discovering that she had weed in every corner of a large plastic storage box that I had cleaned out to use today.

I can't help thinking that this week my lovely cleaner has made my life harder rather than easier

Reading that back it sounds like I didn't clean the tray when I got home - I did, then again at bedtime.

That's annoying, poor cat. you'll just have to have a word with her when you next see her asking her not to feed the cat, or leave her a note. She obviously meant well and perhaps the cat was doing that weaving round the legs thing they do. The cleaner saw the empty bowl, put two and two together and came up with five.

I am surprised that the dry food would have effected the cat so badly, which brand was it?

It's James Wellbeloved. She always reacts badly to a change in her diet, I have to introduce new food very slowly over days a tiny bit at a time.
