I will post one more pic as to how I cut it etc. I use the bottoms of pudding cups like cookie cutters on 1/2" slices of the foam. As long as you keep the foam wet it will keep fresh. As to how often you have to replace depends on the appetite of the cat. I usually don't replace but twice a day morn & evening. You get a feel for how much to put in there as they start to eat. The larger they get the more they eat, so start with one or two leaves if they are little. One more thing, don't move the cat if they are still, like on a stem. They will not eat as they shed skin so add clippings the next day. |
