Introducing "Pig Cat!"

Twitter user, @tramL116, has introduced us to what he calls, "Pig Cat." A video of his cats, one of which eats like the world will end tomorrow. Taking giant bites of food, this cat is now being known as the cat version of the classic game, "Hungry Hungry Hippos." 

Twitter users were quick to chime in and write what may be the cause of the cat's behavior. And others simply shared more videos of cats eating like hungry hippos. 

Two things we know for certain: we love cats and we love eating. You do you, Pig Cat. But the owner should consider feeding the two separately so Pig Cat doesn't feel the need to eat so much, so fast.

    Text - Danny Hulse=A @DannyHulse3 the eplant Replying to @tramL116 and @brianbeutler If a cat has been feeding for itself outdoors before it finds ahome, this happens. When they finally get regular food their instincts are to gorge. It causes extreme weight gain. I feed mine in different spots for that very reason. they learn that no one is coming for their food. 3:32 AM · Jun 14, 2020 · Twitter for iPhone 618 Retweets 8.3K Likes >

    Text - Marilyn Bayless @BaylessMarilyn Replying to @DannyHulse3 @tramL116 and @brianbeutler I rescued a dog who was abandoned & nearly starved to death. He acted like this with his food. Heartbreaking. Give him his own bowl in a separate place. No competition ! 3:59 AM · Jun 14, 2020 · Twitter for iPhone 144 Retweets 4.2K Likes >

    Text - Persistent Woman @PixMichelle Replying to @theasscat and @tramL116 I think he's growling because he feels threatened and insecure, afraid someone will take his food away. I have had several kitties who did this after I rescued them, because they were used to fighting for scraps. Once they felt safe and reassured, they stopped being aggressive. 5:23 PM · Jun 14, 2020 · Twitter for iPhone 10 Retweets 541 Likes >

Use 2 bowls & separate the cats to decrease the stress. 3:55 AM · Jun 14, 2020 · Twitter for iPhone 21 Retweets 1.1K Likes Eliza T. NA @lizalove91 · Jun 14 Replying to @BaylessMarilyn @tramL116 and @brianbeutler Yes! Also, control the serving size! That is WAY too much food he's gonna be so sick and gain a lot of weight. Poor baby. 7 27 4 639 >
