I, too, often dissociate around 11:58.

Hey ! He his holding on the braincell for a whole 5 minutes! Other orange cats need it !

The cat needs something to occupy it before feed time

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

need to setup a moving laser pointer on another clock 40 minutes before the feed time so he can go stare at that for 4 minutes.

A watched clock never boils!

My cat just attacks the feeder

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

it would be hilarious is someone made the clock run five minutes late.

My automatic cat feeder was cheap and runs a few seconds earlier everyday. It's now a full hour and half ahead of schedule (I never updated it for daylight savings time, I figured by the time the hours are set back I can tune the clock back to the right time)

Did this with my car this year. 😆

I just got the exact same feeder! Like, genuinely ten minutes ago. Except it's white. Ended up going with this one based on some good reviews and a homeassistant integration.

In my experience, you can get away with going really cheap for dry feeders though. They really aren't that complex. I got like the second cheapest one I found on Amazon and it has been working great for the 6 months since I got it.

[–] iamthetot@piefed.ca 4 points 1 month ago

I mean, I do think this one was fairly cheap. And home assistant integration was a must for me.

Looks like a PetLibro product. I have 2 of their dispensers and one of their water fountains and they're all great.

i really love that you put a clock there for them. +1

I did wait with him... hey, that's not gif nor mp4 file...

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Just like workplace clockwatchers

[–] myotheraccount@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I sure hope that's not the doomsday clock!
