I have a 6 month old Maine coon kitten and he is so full of personality and craves attention (which he gets plenty of, there’s someone home 24/7).
He’s developed a behaviour where he will steal food. I mean rooting through the bin for scraps, persistently trying to eat off our and our toddlers plates (resulting in scratches) and even stealing snacks right next to us. We never let him actually get the food trying not to reinforce it.
He’s fed on purrform raw food, based on weight recommended by his breeder twice a day. He also had access to Purina dry food and fresh water all day. He has a LOT of play time to alleviate boredom and we’re at a loss why he does it and how we can reduce it. Anyone had this and any success in stopping it? TIA
