8.   Get amused by the cat following you around.
9.   Carry the bag into the TV room to show Mom how she follows the bag of
food! LOL
10.   Decide the food goes in the master bath closet.
11.  Watch the cat try to open the closet door.
12.  Feed the cat 1/2 a can of chicken c/d and watch her scarf it down.
13.  Watch the cat try to open the closet door.
14.  Make note:  buy a plasticbinto store the dry c/d in.

I have a simlar experience the other day.

Rusty just starts eating dry Gastro food after years of canned food.
Gastro canned
hasn't come out yet. I put the bag inside a metal canister. I came
home one day to find the canister opened with a big hole in the bag
of food. I thought I probably
forgot to put the lid back on and Rusty likes the food so much he
helps himself.
I suspect he gorged himself as he lost his appetite for a day
afterwards.

Later I heard a big crash while I was on the computer. I rushed to
find Rusty had flipped the lid on the floor to get to the food again.
Then I put a jug of cat litter on top of the canister to weigh it
down. Still found Rusty sniffing around it. He must really likes the
food. I probably will have to put the canister in a room and close
the door.
Good thing Rusty only knows how to open sliding door and the cabinet
door under the kitchen sink.
Anyway, I am just amazed Rusty knows how to flip the lid off the
canister.
