I work long shifts and I’m out of the house for 14 to 15 hours per day. This is perfect for feeding my 2 cats. I set one for 2 & 4 hours and the other one for 3 & 4 hours so there’s intermittent feeding of all wet food. Sometimes I put mini ice packs underneath the trays to keep it cold. I’ve never changed the batteries and had them for over a year. Using these + one feeding bowl my cats get 3 small meals per day each and I do one more when I get home for 4 small meals/day. It’s also so easy to explain when I have pet sitters and I’m out of town. Makes feeding my cats multiple times a day very easy them.

This is a pretty good deal for feeding the cat in the morning. Even if she is on the bed, she can hear it open and will take off for breakfast.The timer is not accurate to the minute or anything but it opens pretty much on time. It doesn't have a clock. You manually turn the dial to the number of hours until you expect it to open. If it is 8 pm and you want it to open at 6 am, set the timer for 10 hours. I believe it is set up for 15 minute intervals.It is easy to use. The batteries have lasted a long time.This came if very handy while we were on vacation. Family came in once a day, usually in the evening, to feed the cat. They could give her wet food for dinner and set up the feeder with dry food for the morning. It worked out great for them to be able to only come by once a day instead of more often.I do recommend this for a smaller animal. It wouldn't hold enough food for a bigger dog or other animal. Work great for our 15lb cat.

This works for my cat even though she’s very food driven because she’s not athletic or aggressive at all. If you have a young pet or a pet that will try to tear this apart getting to the food, this will not work for you. My cat is quiet, docile, and pretty submissive so this works for us. The biggest downside is it eats batteries very quickly. I’ve had this for a month and have gone through three Aa batteries already. If you’re prepared for paying a small fortune in batteries and your pet won’t destroy this it will work well for you. This is a small minority of pet owners though, so perhaps look at other options.

This feeder is awesome! We have a very skittish stray cat that I feed and this feeder keeps the raccoons from getting it. They tried to steal the entire, full and intact feeder the first couple of nights and I had to go hunting for it. One night it ended up getting drenched by the sprinklers. Silly raccoons. Dried it out and it sprang right back into action.So, after that I drilled a few holes, took a couple zip ties and strapped it to an outdoor table. Works perfectly!I put two full meals in it, so if the raccoons get one, kitty still gets the other. Makes for some entertaining videos. Raccoons are happy, outside kitty is happy, I’m happy. Inside kitties are not so much at watching all that but they’re even more spoiled. They’re just too spoiled to realize it.

I bought this product for a multi-animal household in preparation for a trip I had to take, and man, after coming back and reading the reviews, I am absolutely convinced that they were paid to be written. Where to start:Accuracy: Given the price-point, as one might expect there is an analog dial, powered by a double A battery, for setting up the timed openings in 30 minute increments. This dial is incredibly loosely affixed with a poor "set" mechanism. This means that the dial wobbles left or right of the mark, so you can't tell "is this aligned to 1 hour or 30 minutes?" Even a paltry amount of quality assurance would have uncovered this as problematic if a user needed any degree of accuracy in their timing (in a multi-pet household you wouldnt want one opening first, and then another 30 minutes later).Quality/Sealing: There is essentially no seal to it, so animals can smell that there is food inside. If you have hungry pets, like I do, they will likely try to break it open.Basic Function & Instruction: It is absolutely unclear what determines whether or not the dial/timer will work. The instructions illustrate arrows moving in a counter clockwise motion, but on 2/4 feeders I got, this didnt work, and the timer just stayed where it was.Also, the device is completely silent! Not a click, not anything, so there is no cue for an animal that it might be time to eat. This might be a very minor nit as many might argue "well if theyre hungry they'll just get up and look for food!" but again, just simple QA would have uncovered this as a weird omission.

Worked fairly well for about a month, then was inconsistent in opening one or the other side. Changed batteries (Amazon, which have served me well before,) after a month, then again two weeks later, reapeated in two weeks, again the following week and now neither side opened this last two days. Not sustainable, especially going through that many batteries and it still failed.

It does its job to open at the timing set. Easy to set up and clean. My rabbit knows where to find food when it opens up. Very convenient especially when we went home late and the little will still have his pellets and vegetables opened up to him when it’s feeding time. It makes life easier for both humans and rabbit! This is relatively cheaper compared to the big feeders. Love this!

Great product for timing meals when not at home for pet .. only negative is numbers come off the dial over time and difficult to see the time

Estaba indeciso de sà comprarlo pues vi que varios dueños tuvieron problemas con sus perros. Afortunadamente mi perrita lo ha "respetado", ya van varios dÃas que lo uso para dejarle su comida y al regresar veo que sà abrió normal.El funcionamiento es sencillo y práctico, se puede programar hasta 24 horas.

I have three of these i used when i go one holidays . Only problem the corners the cat licks the food into the corners and it is wasted would like to see more rounded product. Otherwise work well.
