Lol my cat pulled that same “tiny burglar” move once—ripped open a brand-new kibble bag and sat in the middle of it like she’d won a prize. After she nearly ate herself into a food coma, I had to get serious about portions. What helped was switching to an
automatic pet feeder — it drops small amounts on schedule so she can’t sneak-binge anymore. Ever since, she’s calmer, my cupboards stay intact, and I no longer come home to crime-scene kibble explosions.
