Cat loudly woke me up at 4:00 this morning because his dry food bowl was empty.
Don’t feed your pets as soon as you wake up.
You’ve trained them that waking you up means food
You get up to pee, you pay the snack tax. Similar to the troll toll.
Me: up at 330 am, making coffee and breakfast, doing dishes, in and out of my room while showering and dressing. My dog: it’s too early for a walk, keep it down!
An automatic food dispenser has been an absolute lifesaver. The cat still doesn’t get fed at 3:30 am, but he’s mostly learned the schedule and no longer sees us as a source of food. He still begs for the wet food, but he’s learned that schedule too.
Being able to sleep again is great
I’ve been told I’m lazy for having a auto feeder but this is exactly how I look at it. Before when I worked late and dinner was subsequently late they’d scarf it down and puke. They don’t do that anymore
My dog protects my sleep.
2 kitten boys who want to be played with and fed WHENEVER THE FUCK THEY PLEASE, but the big scary snore monster under the blankets keeps them away.
I do not look forward to the day when they discover he is the snore monster, because they love their big funny looking cat brother otherwise.
afaik they like to eat a little amount frequently, so i just give them a handful in similar situations
Why did I read that in Smegals voice?
My cat does not care. She’ll just wake you up at 3:30.
Playtime!
