I use quality foods for each pet and they constantly sneak in and eat eachothers food. My dog has a special food for joint disease and my cat has food for nursing mothers. I mean what is the point of paying all the money for specialty foods if they arent going to eat their own?

We have the same problem. They always think they are missing something better. The only thing you can do is put the cat food where the dog can not get to it and feed the dog when the cat can not get to it. Good Luck!!!!

They just always want something different than theyre used to eating all the time.

Many times animals get tired of the taste of only one food and they switch to the other pets food for variety. Try buying different flavors of the pet-appropriate food and see if that helps. From personal experience, my cat would climb into the ferrets cage and eat their food: pricey at about $5 for a box! Then the ferrets would only eat the cat food and ignore their own. I finally gave up and bought only cat food for everyone. Worked well and saved a lot of money. Only one that lost out was the cat since he didnt get his "treats" anymore! LOL

My cats and dogs do the same thing. I guess it is just something different. However, was told by a veterinarian that it isnt good for a dog to eat the dry cat food. Some dry cat foods contain different minerals than do the dog food. It could cause problems in the dogs urinary tract. So I keep all dry cat foods away from the dogs as much as possible.

This doesnt actually answer the question, but I read a long time ago that cat food is always higher in nutrition than dog food. So, its all right for the dog to eat cat food, but not good for the cat to eat dog food. If you can find a way to keep the cat out of the dog food that would be good.

Seperate them when they are eating.

I found that I had to put the cat food up on a low book case to keep the dog from eating it. After doing that, they went back to eating their own food. My parents put their cats food on an old desk because they have two old males on special food. The cats can still reach their food, but the dog cant.

My dog is always trying to sneak the cat food, but i dont see the cats eat the dog food very often. Im not sure the reason other than they want it cuz its not theirs. and maybe the dog eats the cat food cuz its smaller bite size pieces. Good question.

My dog(shes a boxer) will love to eat catfood, she just likes a change of food.
Osvaldo
Same thing happens in our family, and it is usually the cats that have trouble swallowing the dogs food.
Darren
My cat and dog used to do that all the time princess just wanted the thing that smelled and tasted like bacon and turkey and boo wanted something that was more like fish but they couldnt have it because it made each other sick so dont let them have the others foods but it would be wise to ask the vet for other flavors and rotate the flavors i mean would you want to be eating bread and wine for the rest of your life? no so try to ask about other flavors
Katharine
Our pets like people want what they cant and shouldnt have. The cat food wont really hurt the dog but be careful with the cat. To much dog food is not good for their kidneys or coat.
Delsie
Put the cats food higher up where the dog cant get to it. like on the washing machine, or counter. We had the same problem, and this is hwta solverd it. The dog cant eat the cat food anymore, and the cat doesnt bother with the dogs because he know his will be there for him when he is hungry. Good luck!
