Are your pets mentally stable?

[OumaFan]

I have a dog who after 14 years of life (a life completely devoted to finding food, whether it be dog food, (preferably) human food, dead squirrels and other small animals, or even, it has to be said, various forms of shit) now refuses to eat food out of a bowl or a plate.

She hasn't been eating her food for like a week. I started to worry that she's sick, after all she is old. But she goes nuts every time she's withing smelling distance of human food, so its not like she's disgusted by the thought of food. So tonight, I decide to sit outside with her while she (doesn't) eat, mainly because I wanted to keep my other younger kind of morbidly obese dog from eating her food which is what's been going on for the last week. So, instead of eating her food, she waits until the other dog has eaten and then licks the empty bowl. In the meantime I tried to move her food towards her and a bit of food fell out. She pounced on it.

So, I thought, is there something wrong with the bowl? So I moved her food to the other dogs empty bowl, nothing happened. I even went and got a plate, moved the food to that plate. Nothing happened. I dumped the food out on the ground and she went after it like she hadn't eaten in months.

Batshit crazy.
