I live in the UK (London) and have two cats - Basil who is a short-haired tuxedo and Sibyl a long-haired tortoiseshell.
Both were rescued cats and were thought to be approximately 2 years old when they came to me. They've been with me for eleven years but have never learned to do more than tolerate (barely) each other. There's always problems at meal times because Basil is greedy and a bit of a bully and Sibyl a slow, picky eater who is easily pushed off her food if I'm not there to ride shotgun.

Maybe you should try to give them food in seperate rooms. I have 5 cats and 3 of them eat in 3 different rooms because of a special diet. Twice a day we feed the cats, and they know that it is dinertime, so they know they have to eat at that specific time. They also really know which room they need to go to, they are sitting in front of the door until it opens. Try it, and I am sure they know it within 2 weeks. Cats are smart...

Thank you all for the welcome. I'm so pleased I've discovered Cat World.
I have tried feeding my two in different rooms but they won't eat if the doors are closed; it's as if they each feels that the other is getting something else - and better!
