    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

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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 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.

    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 😹)

    There is no damage in your dog eating an hour later for one day, fuck even 25 hours late isn’t gonna hurt it

      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.
