No matter how many Daylight Saving Times I live through, I'm never prepared for when the day actually comes. The time change is confusing for everyone, but for pets, it's completely nonsensical. Their internal clocks don't care what the time on the stove says. If they usually eat at 7 a.m., then they expect to eat at 7 a.m., no questions asked. Trying to explain to a dog that it's "actually" 6 a.m. now? Good luck.

I learned this the hard way while watching my brother's dog during daylight savings. My brother wakes up at 4 a.m. before work to go to the gym (I don't know how we're related), so naturally, his dog is on the same schedule. Which is already a nightmare when you're pet-sitting, but when the time changes it's way worse. His dog was up and ready to go at 3 a.m., and no amount of reasoning could convince him otherwise. So if your pet is demanding food an hour early this week, you're not alone. We're all going to have a hard time adjusting.
