However, in good news for anxious cat owners, Professor Miyazaki has also discovered the simple solution. However, when scientists swapped out the sixth bowl for a different type of food, the felines suddenly started eating more – even if the food was less appealing. Use a two–level feeder with a different type of food in the bottom to change the smell. This meant the cats could eat one type of food from the top while smelling the odour of a different type in the bottom. However, according to Professor Miyazaki, this discovery could be the key to boosting your furry companion's appetite when they need it most.
