Having had one for almost our cats' entire lives, I can confirm that they do not.

It also creates something of a pavlovian response; it doesn't matter if there's still food in the dispenser's bowl or he's literally just eaten, the sound of more biscuits dropping is enough to make him absolutely hoof it in the direction of the feeder. Sometimes doesn't even eat anything, just has to run over to it.

Yeah we just keep the feeder on one time for the cats since theres no reason they should suffer for our mistakes.

Humans don't understand DST either tbh

seems it should probably make a feeding time transition instead of shifing it overnight.

my first thought as well, it's so imprinted in my brain now, just like the whiskers bothering bowls

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.

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)

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.

So uh... got a link?
