This. I bought an auto feeder for my girlfriend’s cat specifically so kitty could get fed more often and my girlfriend could actually get a full night’s sleep instead of getting woken up daily at 3am. I ended up setting 5 smaller feedings throughout the day and kitty is much happier and not screeching about starving nearly as much.
Feed your cats in the evening instead of in the morning
Or smaller amounts many times a day, if you can.
I do one dose at noon or right before leaving for work, another a couple hours before bed.
Never first thing the morning.
