Our feline roommate is trained to respond to the sound of the lid being removed from a pop-top can of cat food. She will meow incessantly until fed.
This clock mechanism loads a fresh can into the breech every time you set the alarm. At the chosen time, a hook pulls the tab on the can.
This wakes the cat, who begins meowing piteously, which will not stop meowing until you rise and feed. No snooze button function.-- normzone, Mar 15 2005 (???) 10 PEOPLE KILLED IN SHORT BUS SHOOTING http://imagescommer...clocgarfield002.jpgMonkeys always... something. [AfroAssault, May 27 2005] meow. meow. meow. meow. meow. <taps [norm] on the shoulder> meow.-- Machiavelli, Mar 15 2005 woof-- po, Mar 15 2005 Are you trying to tell me that this is a real dog of an idea, and it won't get very fur ?-- normzone, Mar 15 2005 Snooze button function: --------------As button is depressed a large anvil is released from it's suspension cables next to the can-opening apparatus.Brought to you by [8th of 7] industries.-- Jinbish, Mar 16 2005 I'm going to have to clean that up, then re-load the anvil ?-- normzone, Mar 16 2005 Where has that trekkie trekked off to, anyways? Someplace no one's gone before?-- RayfordSteele, Mar 16 2005 //Our feline roommate is trained//
This is your first mistake. Assuming you can train a cat.
This is fully baked in the [hazel][jonthegeologist] household. Pete and Dud are very good at waking me up by sitting on my head and purring. Somehow (and rather annoyingly) [jtg] seems to be able to pretend to be asleep better than me so it's always me that gets up and feeds them.-- hazel, Mar 16 2005 //Somehow [jtg] seems to be able to pretend to be asleep//
It's all about "Who wants it more!". You feel that feeding the cats is of higher priority than another 5 minutes in bed. [jtg] knows differently...-- Jinbish, Mar 16 2005 We already got two of these. They seem to be permanently set for 4:30 AM though, and we haven't figured out how to change it yet.-- waugsqueke, Mar 16 2005 random, halfbakery
