I just got an autofeeder for my cats. Wonderful thing. My cats still come to me and sit and scream for food for the hour before each mealtime, and we argue about whether or not they currently need my participation in mealtime, right up until the thing kicks on, then they're off like a shot. It's hilarious.

We have the autofeeder and litter box in the garage. There's a cat flap in the wall between there and the rest of the house. This damn cat will yell to have us open the door for him. We finally figured out why, it's because the other one will occasionally pounce on him when he sticks his nose through, and that's the last thing you want when you're clenching your sphincters. So we open the door for him.
