On Sunday morning, daylight saving time ended meaning we all set our clocks back an hour, theoretically giving everyone an extra hour of sleep. However, as any pet owner knows, animals don’t observe daylights savings time.

Pets are not down with having their meals and walks one hour later than usual and their owners have been documenting their pets’ hilarious reactions to being fed and walked an hour later than their regular time. This content isn’t just relatable to pet owners, these pets show how we all feel about the inconvenience of daylight savings time.

Here are a few of our favorite pet reactions and tweets about pets and daylights savings time.

1. Potato the bulldog

In this video posted by @potato.bulldog on TikTok, Potato sits somberly waiting by the door to go out. Potato’s owner says, “Potato, it’s not 5:30 yet. I know you are confused. I know daylight savings sucks, but we have to wait another hour.” Isn’t that right?

Potato repeatedly hits a button that says “go outside,” eventually slumping over and accepting defeat.
