My cats get fed twice a day. They know when breakfast happens because they get fed when I get up, which is usually around 8:00am. Sometimes they help wake me up with a paw in the face or a leap onto my stomach, but it's normally around the same time every day. Dinner is a different matter. I always fed them at 6:00pm when I was working because that was the time I usually got home. They knew it was dinner time when I walked through the door. Now that I am retired, I still try to stick with that 6:00 time because it's what they're used to.
A funny thing happened yesterday when daylight savings time ended and the clocks were turned back. My kitty Alexandra started running around the food bowl at 5:00pm...an hour early. But this was actually 6:00pm daylight savings time. So how does she know it's really 6:00pm? I think my cat is actually telling time. Smart kitty! Now if I can just get her to turn all those battery clocks back it would sure save me some time.....
