I'm local and not British so I guess I'll have to watch out for the British then!

You're going to want to reset that as soon as soon as possible. I know the guy that runs that server, and he's not to be trusted.

It could be that they spell their name a bit different now:

I reluctantly followed the link to find out WTF you lot were talking about, enjoyed the entire thing except the crap music about 2.5 minutes in.

I was just packing Dij the Cat's food for the next week (he gets three pouches a day, alternating manufacturers, with a different flavour at each meal to keep him interested).
And I read the "Feeding Guide" on the pack (yes, I was that bored - it's not a taxing task):
Quote: Cats seldom overeat and will regulate their food intake according to their needs.
Riiiight. That's why there are never pictures of obese cats on t'interwebs, and why Furface would eat continually if you let him get a chance ... and still prey on anything that moves (or might have moved once) and raid the neighbours bins ...
This is clearly not the species Felis Catus Domesticus I am familiar with! Or ... some marketeer is lying ... Hmmm ... which is more likely ...

We thought that about our Cat too, that it would regulate its intake. That cat was so thin. Turned out that the cat had a tapeworm...

All my cats, 6th so far, regulated their food intake.
I'm away for the night, so I can just give Jiji a full bowl and I know she won't eat it all at once

Aaah! One of those responsible cat ownwers...
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Come on, this is Wales, where "responsible" owners let their cats hunt sheep!

Personally I like cats very much and generally they reciprocate it by being very friendly or very much into being cuddled etc...
But with cats there is only one thing that is absolutely certain: they are all unpredictable. The instant you think you know all about one or more of them they will prove without a shadow of doubt you got it all wrong.

In my experience, it depends on the cat. Some cats will eat until the food has run out or they can't stand up whereas others will do exactly what the pouch says: Regulate their own food input and stop eating when no longer hungry.
I currently have six cats (one previously totally feral, three of her feral-born kittens (now grown up), one previously-rejected tomcat, and one previously-living-wild-but-human-fed cat) and all of them stop eating when no longer hungry. They really do self-regulate.
I've had many, many cats (mostly walk-ins of various sorts) and I don't recall any that would just eat and eat. They all seemed to self-regulate their food input. I was always more likely to find food left over than unnecessarily eaten. However, I do know of friends whose cats would just eat non-stop if food was available.
Perhaps I've been lucky with my cats. Or perhaps I unwittingly allow them believe that there is no shortage of food and so there is no need to stuff themselves; they 'just know' that food will be available when needed. I don't know which it is. I'd like to believe it's because I'm a fantastic cat owner/herder.

Not allowed cats as they tend to hunt the local wildlife so we have a couple of Labradors, while they won't pinch food off the bench (anymore) all other protein is fair game, including the vegie patch I no longer grow tomatoes as they never made it to maturity.

There's a lab near that my cat likes, but he can't get close due to an electronic pet fence. Doesn't mean he doesn't hunt; I got a 5x5m garden and he still manages to catch mice and bring them inside.
Cats roaming tend to get hurt, mostly by cars. Goedzo is not going outside my garden, ever.
..and Lab's are friendly and curious dogs. If you wanna own both, a lab is your best bet, with any cat.

Yeah we are on an acreage in a semi rural (jungle) area, the labs are great but we have a 1.5m goanna [^]in the area that would probably find a cat quite tasty. Lots of bird life that would also be in danger from an outside cat and I don't like locking a cat inside the house.
