Miss Happy is being weird lately. For the last 2 weeks, every day, she doesn't eat in the morning. Anyone who knows Happy knows that her whole existence kind of revolves around food, so this is odd for her.
Thing is, she does eat it eventually. If it's offered to her again in a couple hours, she'll eat it. And dinner is never an issue. But in the morning she goes through her whole "OMG BREAKFAST FOOD YES" routine, and then just... walks away from it. She runs up the stairs, whines, tap dances all over the kitchen and begs intensely like she's been starved her whole life, and then you put the food down and she sniffs it and walks away. Why do you freak out and beg for it if you're not going to eat!!
She's "normal" otherwise. Like I have no reason to believe there's an illness. Is she just... losing her mind? For the most part she seems to have her wits about her in other situations, although she does get lost in the backyard sometimes.
Mostly just curious if this is some sort of common senior problem that others have experienced. I'm not really worried about it.
