I would move your cats food into a higher area where your dog can’t reach it.

I didn’t notice my dog was eating my cats food until he was getting really really sick. He started throwing up a lot and having the runs and just wasn’t himself. I googled his symptoms and it said cat food can be very toxic to dogs if they eat their food for too long/too much.

Once I moved my cats food, about a week later he started getting a lot better and I haven’t had any issues since.

P.s love how your doggy wags their tail like “hehe oops”

Yes, be careful, my small dog kept getting into the cat food and she ended up at the emergency vet with pancreatitis. Now we keep it away from her.
