      Our cat in India knows nothing called Daylight savings. Take your cat to such a place where no daylight savings is done.

          I have a water spray bottle next to me. If the cats see me reaching for it, they bolt out of the room. If fact, it's been so effective they are now really really quiet when they wake up the wife. :laugh:

            Forget the cat - he adjusted easily, how do you adjust your wife? Note: Just because the cat adjusted to the clock change doesn't mean the cat is well adjusted. :laugh:

              Here in the great state of Arizona, we don't do that nonsense. Yet we still had to restart our phones because they had changed anyway.

                All that needs to be adjusted are all the clocks. Then go on living as before. Get up at the same time, feed the cat at the same time. OK, so when you got up yesterday, the clock called it 6am. When you got up at the same time today, the clock called it 7am. That doesn't matter, does it? Well, maybe a few things matters. Do you have flexible working hours? Lots of us do. So we can come to work tomorrow morning at the same time as we did last week. I realize that not everybody has that kind of freedom. Your favorite radio or TV program has been rescheduled one hour earlier - but who uses linear media today, anyway? There may be some small remaining problems, but if you just keep on doing things at the same time as you did them last week, ignoring what the clock calls that time, the problems will be greatly reduced, both for you and your cat.

                    For automated systems like lawn sprinklers, water softeners, etc I set them 30 minutes in the middle of the 2 zones. Close enough!
