Love to help, Bee, but a few clues in your message indicate you're a few thousand miles away.

I'm wanting advice from any of you feline shrinks about what to do with our cat, who will hardly ever eat cat food when I'm around (because she expects better from me in the way of scraps). She follows me everywhere, looking as cute and pleading as possible, and when I fill her bowl with really good quality cat food she looks at it disdainfully and walks off. And she's really thin, too. If I'm away, she'll eat whatever my husband puts down for her, and yesterday she must have been ravenous because she ate four pouches of cat food. Today, though, we're back to the "What have you given that to me for? Do you think I'm a cat?" expression.

Oh, and to add insult to injury, we appear to have some rodents who are stealing her food from her bowl. Does she hunt them? Hah. ("Do you think I'm a cat? Hunt them yourself.")
