Yes. 5:00 a.m. is feeding time. 6:00 p.m. in feeding time. 1:30 a.m. - 3:00 a.m. is come-play-with-me time all announced with very loud meow alarms and/or percussive awakening gestures (15 lb. cat walking on human). Doesn't matter what day of the week it is, if it's a holiday or if mom is on vacation. Those times are chiseled in granite and must be obeyed always!
