I've had four cats in my life, and two of them were always hungry (supposedly, but they so weren't), from what I've heard from a breeder, most cats don't have impulse control with food, they will eat everything you put in front of them, and more. And it's up to the owner to be responsible for limiting the food to a normal healthy amount.

I don't know about dogs, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same, because I do see a lot of fat dogs at the vets.

The breed of cat I own is prone to obesity, just because most of them love their food, but so far I've had a picky cat, and my vet says I'm fairly luck with that.

	Same with dogs, that's why people shouldn't feed their dogs from the table. The dogs smells that there's food and will beg, but you shouldn't give them any. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Yeah, I also heard that's sensible because of the pack order, if you want your dog to know that it isn't your boss, you should feed it after the family (the human family) and then feed it separately.

It's definitely the same with dogs. Oh, man, is it the same. It's in their set of rarely-used "wild" instincts to eat whatever is available in the largest available quantities. My dog doesn't know whether she's being fed a lot or not so much because, when she's done, she immediately looks for more. If anything at all smells like food, it must be eaten. For my dog, this has included an entire tube of hydrocortisone cream.

Yeah. She's not the brightest.

Anyway, the food obsession depends primarily on breed and personality, from what I've seen. Some dogs do not care so much about food. Others, like mine, though she has never received table food, will put their enormous, drooling heads in your lap while you're eating.
