My Cats Tell Time

That's gotta be it. They will make my life miserable if I'm 15 minutes past their feeding time. Truth is, they do that 15 minutes before feeding time too.

They really do love their routines, don't they? I wouldn't say mine can tell time per se, but at least one of them starts to bug me about half an hour to 45 minutes before feeding time. They also get agitated if I forget to give them their evening treat!

Dorothy starts getting ansy between 6 and 7 AM, I think it's because she gets her thyroid pill at 7, and she's like " Common mom, I need my fix!" They don't get breakfast until 8 or so, and no one bugs me for that, which is odd.. so it must be the drugs. Of course she doesn't bug me for the 7PM pill, just the morning one. Maybe she's just bored too and wants attention.

Between 4:30 and 6am, Dusty jumps up on my bed for loving. Only problem is I don't get up until 6:30am and later on week-ends. If she only would just tap on my face but she actually has her claws out a bit!!! I will cover my ace with the sheet and she will claw at it until she gets it off.

I feed mine at 8PM each day. They start lining up around me about 7:45. If I'm late, they start pointing at their wrists to remind me to check my watch. By 8:30, Scarlett will come up to me and paw at my face gently. If I ignore her by 8:45 the claws come out.

Peanut starts about an hour before feeding time- just little reminders at first, and as we get closer he gets all up in my business. I was thinking about getting an automatic feeder, but he probably wouldn't realize it wasn't me giving him the food since I'd have to take him to the bowl at first- so that might not be a good solution!

LOL! Better than mine!! They start begging at least 3 hours before dinner. Then if I'm late they will try to race me to the kitchen and trip me!!

My friend once rented a room from this girl who's cat would sit at the bottom of the stairs every night and meow and GLARE right at her till she went up to bed!! When the girl would go out of town; my friend had to take over night time duties of going to bed with the CAT said so!

Trout is not so good at telling time. She'll wake us up at any old time

Seems mine start an hour or more before feeding times. I feed three small meals a day. I wish I could go to two feedings, but they seem so hungry most of the time and are always asking for treats from the kitty jar.

They also know if I am late to our interactive play sessions in the evening. We play around 6:30 or 7:00. Any later and the claws start to come out

Mine would always know if I was late coming home from work. And heaven forbid if I sleep in late!
