I'd rather not have cat poop in my houses air.

Dogs poop in the house sometimes too. Anything living will poop in your house if you let it in for long enough. It's nice they are considerate enough to go in a box and not in the floor

But human poop is perfectly fine? You saw that one Mythbusters episode, right? Feces is everywhere.

Y'all in this thread need to get yourselves automatic feeders and start putting out wet food during awake times and not the crack of dawn.

[–] Tinks@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I will never understand letting your pets dictate wakeup hours, except in the special circumstance that it's a puppy because they can't hold their bladder. My cats have never woken me up for food. In fact my cats and dogs have always known that if they annoy me, I will stay in bed longer out of spite. I will wake up and lay in bed until I am ready to get up, and no pet is going to annoy me into feeding them. The closest I've ever had to a pet waking me up is my current golden who doesn't wake me up for food, he wakes me up to cuddle, but is fine if I go back to sleep.

It's not about what you feed them or when, it's about setting boundaries. We feed canned food morning and night. Our pets sleep on the bed, and know they will get their food when I'm ready to be awake.

My cat knows she only gets food when I get up.

Once she gets hungry she doesn't give a fuck about that and starts messing with everything next to the bed. I never give in to that and just put her outside the bedroom, but next time she will try doing it again anyway. She's determined to get her food, even if her ways have never worked. She might just be doing it out of spite tbh.

As far as my cats are concerned, any time there's not wet food available is awake time.

[–] Echolynx@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago

They make auto wet feeders now too, apparently...

I wish, as soon as the sun comes up that little fucker is punching me in the face to fill up his food bowl.

[–] myotheraccount@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He waits until the sun comes up?

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Yeah, prime time seems to be about 40 minutes before sunrise, regardless of the time of year.

Yeah I'm a cat person and when I go outside in the snow I want to go alone. No brown or yellow snow, no wimpering because their paws are too cold. Just me and some crisp solitude.

No brown or yellow snow

you're really missing out. can't let the dogs have all the fun

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You do you boo. One of my best memories is seeing my puppy frolick in the show for the first time. Just getting up the mountain is a bitch with him in the car.

That cat looks like they are trying to escape.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 9 points 3 days ago

Normal cat look

My dog happily jumps into my bed to cuddle as soon as he realizes I'm awake. Only when we're both sufficiently cuddled, we go on our merry way.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Yep, and my cat is named: Winter.

Winter
