daylight savings time
turning the clocks back
turned the clocks back
no extra hour of sleep for me
no rest for the wicked
The pets are not accepting daylight savings time

Every morning my cat meowed at 6:50 am for ten minutes until we woke up. 7 am is when we get up for to get ready for school. The cat makes sure I am not late for he breakfast even on weekends.
Now with the time change of setting our clocks back an hour the cat is meowing at 5:50 am for an hour an ten minutes until we wake up. I refuse to get up earlier to feed her and hope she adjusts to this tim change soon. Of course her meowing wakes the puppy up too so she cries as well lol.
We have had the puppy now for one month today. She will be 12 weeks tomorrow. She has to be with us all the time especially me cuddling on my lap. She cries when we go into the bathroom and she can’t. The photo I posted is over her sitting up next to me sleeping you can see she is still pretty tiny.

That's the official or unofficial reason Saskatchewan doesn't go in for the time change: They don't want to confuse the cows.

@shaggin No, Saskatchewan doesn't, and a few communities bordering it don't, either.

Your puppy is so cute!! I guess our pets have to adjust to the time change as well as we do. Our pups seem a little confused too

This totally reminds me of my cat who woke me up every 6 AM - no fail
Well, even I am finding it hard to adjust to DST.

@Theresaaiza yes it is hard for humans to adjust so it really only makes sense that animals will have a hard time as well and not understand what is going on.

Strange that you can adjust to new timings. I am with your cat. I would be like your cat - getting up at the usual time disregarding what the clock would show (lol)

Such a cute puppy! We don't have daylight saving here, so it's pretty interesting to know this. I hope they eventually adjust though!

That is awesome your cats were not effected by the change. Ours have adjusted now thankfully but my son woke up 20 minutes early and went into a rage because I wouldn’t allow him to go downstairs which would wake everyone up. Ugh it’s always something lol!

Yes I know. I feel your pain. My black cat, Lily, meowed at 12am and 2:30am. I usually feed her at 4am. Now she lets me sleep until 3:30am.

@shaggin I work from home and I used to do my work really early. But on Easter I have to get up really early for Sunrise service so I would have to feed her early then.

@m_audrey6788 I’m not sure it can give anyone trouble adjusting to the time change and I guess his internal clock must be sensitive.
