Why don't you just post this every night at 8pm, (9 eastern), because my cats eat at 5:30 and I don't usually eat until about 7:30 to 8?

No. Of course not. Cats can tell time.

They have their own time/space continuum.
Besides, they would make me insane for two hours if I tried to wait that long. I feed them first in the morning, then I eat a later breakfast, and supper must happen before the womenfolk get home and release the dragons, er, dogs. So it must be about 5:30pm.

Seb started having seizures at age 4, and had to have meds 2 times a day. I took my pills when he did. Miss you, Sebbie!
