Does my tail look big in this? Quite possibly, because animals are emotional eaters.
A study has found that animals are prone to emotional eating, often consuming more food than they actually need in an attempt to get rid of any stressful emotions they are feeling. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?
This new information from the Western University of Health Sciences in California could be instrumental to the happiness of household pets around the world. Not only does it allow owners to be more aware as to why their Chihuahua has suddenly acquired the appetite of a Wolf, it is also an outward demonstration of an inward problem, which would otherwise go unnoticed. This could pave the way for any potential pet psychiatrists out there; let the world know why Sally the Sausage Dog has devoured so much Kibble recently. Now is your time to shine.
So next time it’s been a hard day for the family Labrador, or your Cat is meowing mournfully into its empty food bowl, remember this might be more than just pure greed. Maybe the dog’s favourite ball is lying at the bottom of a pond, or the cat’s favourite patch to prowl has been tarmacked. Try to imagine your own distress if someone always locked the fridge door after dinner. Simply devastating.
We all know the answer doesn’t lie in stuffing your face, but an extra bit of food is a far more satisfying response when you’re feeling low than someone throwing a stick across the garden for you to chase. Especially when you wish it was the ball.
