For me, feeding my cat is a major bonding event. Because that's like 50% of the reason why she even interacts with me. How does an automatic feeder affect that dynamic for you?

I feed her wet food when I get up and she gets dry food at 6pm and a couple of treats when we play before bed.
It is mainly for indoor cats. They bond with their owner every moment they are at home.
In that dynamic they are gettin out of home, it's reasonable to jave an automatic feeder when you are not home since cats in nature eat very often (but little)
That poor cat was on the verge of starvation and you only felt a little guilty?????
Thanks for the insight, sharkfucker420
It's interesting who can and cannot see lemmy displaynames. This is my Dolphinfucker420 account lol. @Sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml is my main (though this one is my original) but I made all my accounts around the same time a few years ago on different instances. I use displaynames to differentiate them. Some people see them and some don't.
My other accounts are Fishfucker and Crabfucker
It depends on the client. I use Voyager which only displays usernames.
We need a c/RimjobSteve, STAT!
Well, I guess technically we'd need a u/RimjobSteve.... although I bet...... no, I'm wrong. One does not exist, at least on lemmy.world. lol
…yet
How about r/satansmaggotycumfart?
Be the change you want to see in the world
I don't particularly want to see that in the world, just assume that someone does. lol

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh a beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty
Oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness
Oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
