Not that easy when they are climbing all over you and your keyboard, screaming the house down because they are ‘starving to death’ having not eaten in the last 2 hours…
yeah, they can, and just as with a human, behavioural work is required. a cat destroying things because it wants food is not just a normal quirky thing.
Sorry, I think something has got lost in translation. I didn’t say she destroyed stuff.
When it gets close to food time, she will sit in front of me (usually on my keyboard as I WFH) and shout for attention, but if I try to cuddle or play she will walk off towards her food bowls.
She had a thing with her mouth when she was young (before I adopted her) and I think she worries about not getting fed, but she has been consistently fed the same diet for the last 2 years. If we feed her any more she gains weight, she would eat endlessly if given the chance.
It is hard because it is sad to see her begging for food, so keeping her on a good diet isn’t easy. I was just pointing out that giving cats less food isn’t always an easy thing to do.

But I agree with the principle 😂.
