This one has served as well and the lid fits tight. But it is the backup bin. We have a much larger food bin that is the default. 12 cats go through a lot of food. And sometimes we get a lot of donations at once. In fact, this week I think we picked up close to 200 pounds. If someone in one of the local Facebook groups posts that they need cat food we have a bag for them.

Whoa whoa whoa! Hol up a minute! TWELVE CATS??? Ok......ok, lets just settle down. I'm going to tell you what I told my ex girlfriend when we first moved in together, and she wanted to know if we should get a cat. I said: "Yes, obviously we're going to adopt a cat. But here's how it goes on the scale of how to adopt.... 0 cats? You need a cat in your life. 1 cat? Your cat needs a friend. 2 cats? Yes. This is the perfect number of cats. You can stop adopting now. 3 cats? It's a bit much, and you're pushing the boundries of what's acceptable, but still within the legal levels of still sane. Just don't get anymore cats. 4 cats? That's simply too many cats. Why do you need 4 cats? You can't pet 4 cats at once. You're not Ganesha the hindu god, or Goro the Mortal Kombat boss who hasn't been defeated in 500 years. 5 cats? WHAT??? You got ANOTHER cat??? 6 cats???? DUDE!!!! STOP ADOPTING CATS!!!! 7 cats? WHAT THE HELL??? 8 cats? Ya know what? You're officially a crazy cat lady. Theres no reason to have 8 cats unless you're filming a reality show like big brother, except instead of humans it's 8 cats living together. 9 cats???? What is wrong with you??? You have a problem!!!! 10 cats??? This is unheard of!!! Double digits??? STOP COLLECTING CATS!!! THEY AREN'T FUNKO POPS! 11 cats??? Now I'm just under the assumption that these cats have kidnapped your family, and are holding them hostage at gunpoint. The only way they'll release your family is if you adopt all the cats from all the kill shelters. 12 cats??? At this point I've called social services. I'm fairly sure you have dementia, and just go adopt a new cat every day. They probably greet you by name when you come in. "Oh, hi Mr Thompkins! Good morning! Hows Mr Whiskers doing?" to which you get confused how they know your name. And then when you leave, rumors start swirling that you're doing mad scientist experiments on cats, trying to create one mega super voltron cat. Which would still only be like 2 feet tall.....but logic fell out of this conversation 8 cats ago. Now you just need an aide from the state to help in your assisted living facility. We're going to get you the help you need. Everything's going to be ok....
