Unless it's within two hours in either direction of the cats feeding time, in which case "I wuv u, have u noticed ur poor kitty is starving and the food bowl is empty? Here let me get all up in your face in case you've forgotten about me..."
Also, hey hello, now look at my butthole.
Apparently that's due to their mothers licking the buttholes to clean them when they were little
So they are going, "You're my parent now, get to cleaning"
TIL: I have a perpetually disappointed cat.
Hey that cat is from Ohio
My cat rarely bothers us about food. But if we've not played with him, or toured the (exterior, communal building) hallway in the last few hours...he doth scream.
And I'm pretty sure he uses his abs when meowing because the boi can project!
Meanwhile their bowl has plenty of food in it, but because the bottom is visible, the rest no longer exists
I've heard that the issue for some cats isn't that they can see the bottom, but that their whiskers hit the side of the bowl and that's uncomfortable.
Yeah you're supposed to put their food on plates, that's also why they often won't drink from water bowls, hence the market for little fountains for them to drink from.
Cats would literally rather die than rub their whiskers against something. I can almost relate.
