Yes at any time servers can be down. I certainly know that!
It is not worth risking your pet's well being.
Yet another example of our robotic 'app-addicted' society! How could anyone stay away from their animal all day for hours and hours at a time? It's easier with outdoor/indoor cats....terrible for dogs....and just not advisable really. 10 hours without food won't kill them so long as there is water, but how miserable for them! And I have actually heard that if cats go too long without food it can be dangerous for them.
Animal companions need more than just food anyway to live a good life. They need stimulus, company, the presence of their family members. Depression can be a very real issue with animals. So is neurotic and repetitive behaviour, caused by loneliness and lack of companionship.
