Good Morning everyone and thank you all for your prayers and positive thoughts for my daughter Carrie. It means so much. No better place to come then GB for comfort and support...a community of caring people! No plans for today except to enjoy a walk in the sunshine and watch a movie. Coffee and tea are ready to go with Connie's breakfast goodies. Have a great day Boomers! Gerry

The days are closing in now, getting dark at 7pm and cold in the morning.
The upside of that is that the dawn chorus outside my bedroom door doesn't start until it gets light at 6:30. I'm no longer treated to door-scratching, not since I threw a slipper at the door a few times, but the howls start quietly and move up to a crescendo as the sun appears over the horizon, until I finally get up. Then it's all innocence and big eyes. Dude knows better. He lets Willow do all the dirty work while he lounges on the couch.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

This is why my friend Kim got automatic feeders. There was no sleeping past 5 am for her, no matter the time of the year! She has one for each cat and can control how much and when it dispenses breakfast, lunch and dinner. I'm taking care of her kitties while they are away camping for a week and a half and all I have to do is clean the litter boxes and give them some lap time! Otherwise she would have to board them.
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

I thought I had ordered one for Willow, but I guess I didn't. More brain fog. I'm not sure it would work for me, anyway. Dude has to have wet food. He doesn't drink water, ever. I have literally never seen him drink in the 11 months since we got him. The vet told me he's a bit dehydrated, so I mix a tablespoon of water into his wet food. And of course, there would be cries of unfair treatment if Willow got fed at 5 am and Dude had to wait. The only time there's any real friction between them is when they're hangry.

Maybe you could do like Kim does and just have a very small amount drop for her one cat that has weight control issues?

I actually found one on Amazon that delivers wet food and has cooling packs for overnight. I ordered two of them. Apparently you can record a message for the cats, too.
Willow will catch on quickly -- she's really good at solving those food puzzles -- but Dude might have some trouble at first because he's skittish and really cautious around new things. He's pretty smart, though. Once he watches Willow using hers he'll probably catch on.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I didn't know there was such a thing! Now you can be gone overnight and no one will starve!

Hopefully the feeders will do the trick.
Of course, if they get fed at 5 am, they'll be clamouring for food at 4 in the afternoon. Dude just starts peeping at me, but Willow puts on a full-on charm offensive, rolling on her back at my feet, reaching up and patting me on the leg, and nipping my ankles.

LOL! I can just see that! Just set the feeders up to feed them again at 4! Of course, then you'd miss the charm offensive!

The charm offensive is adorable for about five minutes. And I've started calling Dude "Mr. Peeps" because he has such an odd little meow. It's a two-note affair, low-high, low-high, low-high, sounding rather like a small kazoo. Exactly that, three times. Again, cute for about five minutes. It's a good thing they've really started to play together; they do keep each other busy on and of through the day.

Nice to have their company, though, hagatha ?? Whether there's a charm offensive going or not
