"Cats don't believe in Daylight Savings Time"

“Dogs do not believe in Daylight Savings Time” (or “Cats don’t believe in Daylight Savings Time”) is a saying that has been printed on many images. Pets want to be fed at the same time, and do not realize that the clock has been set an hour forward or backward.

Wikipedia: Daylight saving time
Daylight saving time (DST), also referred to as daylight saving(s), daylight savings time, daylight time (United States and Canada), or summer time (United Kingdom, European Union, and others), is the practice of advancing clocks to make better use of the longer daylight available during summer so that darkness falls at a later clock time. The typical implementation of DST is to set clocks forward by one hour in spring or late winter, and to set clocks back by one hour to standard time in the autumn (or fall in North American English, hence the mnemonic: “spring forward and fall back”).
