Ten.Ten.'s hungry pet journal #1

I have two Pico pet's; Yukiko my white puppy and Pinpan my pink panda. I've been noticing recently that they are always hungry whenever I log in. When I first bought Yukiko it was pretty obvious that she was only hungry once per reset however back then I only logged in once a day, maybe twice. 


Now, I've found myself not only logging in more frequently per reset but I've also been noticing that my pets are increasingly hungry. I've had more than one Pico berate me for not feeding my pets but what they've failed to notice -not that they would- is that I've fed them twice that day already. It was getting so bad that I started going to the pet hotels that set out pet food for the needy because I was feeding my pets so much and running out of food.  Even the pet hotels are having a hard time staying open because so many picos are feeding their pets more frequently. More than once per reset.


So I either want to figure out their eating habits and/or help the situation by creating another pico that I will use to run a pet hotel. 


Though there are quite a few variables that I don't quite understand. first, does the musical symbols have any effect on hunger. Meaning the more musical symbols you have filled means the longer your pet will be full. Also, does time have any effect on your pets hunger. Meaning is their hunger notification programmed to pop up at certain times of the day regardless if you've just fed them, just logged in, or have 5 music symbols.


Hmmm so my first approach would be to log in once per hour. I'll try this at first. I guess I won't be able to do it during the middle of the night -I need my beauty rest- but we'll see how this approach works! Let's figure these pets out!
