My cat is growing accustomed to it's new Machine God (the automated feeder).
I think she's figuring out the rituals for getting it to dispence food (there are none).
She happened to be rubbing up against a cabinet around when the timer went off and I could see her think "Whoa, did I do that?".
Hopefully she will soon learn the humies are no longer in control of her feeding times.
I think she doesn't understand that we know it already fed her in the morning even if we didn't witness it.
@mauve Mine sits vigil over the feeder for hours before dawn, just in case.
Oh, and starts hassling me to fill it hours before the appointed time, just for good measure. 🙄
@natknight Oh jeeze. 😂 That does not bode well.
Mine's on day three still and it seems at least her early morning feeding has resulted in less complaints.
In the evening she gets up in everyone's face after her afternoon nap (usually 30m to 1h to feeding)
@natknight But to be fair to the cays, we're prpbably as incomprehensible as any sort lf alien being could be so they're probably trying literally any random thing that worked in the past to solve their problem (wanting food or treats).
My previous pair lf cats had a gravity feeder and generally only complained a little bit when they got wet food.
This one needs food portioning sadly due to trauma leading to drastically overeating. 🥲
