I feed my cats at 6pm. I knew daylight savings time would be ending soon so for the past month I've been feeding my cats earlier and earlier. Today when they wanted dinner at 4pm I realized I'd been adjusting the wrong way
I’m praying that you are still alive and well. We all know a cat can hold a serious grudge. And multiple?
Stay safe.
Well, yeah, it does. If you don't change the time you feed them, they won't be eating at the same time.
Don't give me that look.
You think we are changing clock? No! We are changing time! We keep the clock the same. Only rich people can afford to change all their clock twice a year!
I like how everyone is basically. They can wait an hour. I don’t even get my meals at the same time every day.
It's not like the dog has to get up for work and this has made him late for his commute. Plus he gets super delighted when daylight savings starts and he gets fed an hour early for some wonderful reason!
My dogs usually wake me up at 4 am.
Today they woke me up at 4 am when it was 3 am.
They can wait a little bit for their food.
The time on my cat's auto feeder will not be adjusted. Makes no sense to make him adhere to this arbitrary convention humans came up with
Exactly yesterday they got fed at 9am and 8pm. They will get fed at 9am and 8pm today even if it is actually an hour later than yesterday.
My dog doesn't know what time is and doubt he'll ever understand "o'clock" or the common human timekeeping convention.
He gets food when I get out of bed and around when the sun is going away or gone. If he gets "dinner" earlier than that, he know we're going out somewhere soon. If dogs have a circadian rhythm, that.
My dog understands the phrase, "it's nine o'clock" to be a synonym for, "it's time for last outside." That is when we wind them up just before quiet time and send them charging outside to do their business one last time. He also understands, somehow, when the credits play just before or after that time and sometimes will wait patiently for a few minutes past 9 to see if we will send them out.
My pup sure knew. I have auto feeders for my dogs and my Aussie Shepherd was staring at me and pawing at me for the entire hour before feeding time.
Whoever spent the time to make this image has too much time onbtheir hands.
There is no damage in your dog eating an hour later for one day, fuck even 25 hours late isn't gonna hurt it
The cat is far more adamant about feeding time than the dogs, at least at my house. But I guess it makes sense since she's basically in charge and the dogs are her lackeys.
I swear they have a built-in clock that marks nothing but feeding time. It's kind of nuts. (And another that randomly goes off that also marks feeding time every time 😹)
We slowly adjust around here 30 min for the next few days then 15 then new time.
If only there was some way to automatically spread that adjustment over the whole year!
I hate trying to explain our silly useless tradition to my red heeler.
My dog just always has food and eats whenever he wants (usually at least once at 2am).
Yeah, I'm getting to the new time slowly.
I feel like this dog is expressing the opposite of the intended message.
Nice. Another Community to block, haha.
Nice, another useless comment I've written. But someone else now knows my opinion! :)
You must have the majority of lemmy blocked.
haha.
