5 out of 5 stars My cats will be taken cared of.   August 21, 2008
Gotta love this pet feeder. Super easy to set up. I don't know what some of these other folks are complaining about. I also followed another reviewer's suggestion to insert a barrier between the top and bottom with a smaller hole for my cats' small kibbles. I'll be leaving my cats for 3 days. I've tested this unit for a few days now and I'm confident they'll be fed properly.

In my view, the only thing they could have improved on was to include 3 D batteries with my order. Aside from that, I'm very happy with my purchase.



2 out of 5 stars inconsistent   August 20, 2008
I've been messing with this thing for a couple of weeks now trying to figure out how much food it will distribute. The first time I set it for half a cup, it doled out a cup and a half. It's gotten better, but I do set it for a quarter cup less than what actually comes out. It also still scares my cats (and me too!).


4 out of 5 stars Don't forget   August 14, 2008
Don't forget to buy D batteries for this thing (which I did and am now extremely annoyed)! They also have to option of using a DC adapter, but do not include it.


2 out of 5 stars Doesn't measure food correctly   August 13, 2008
We purchased this for our three cats, set to dispense 3/4 of a cup 3 times a day. After watching it dispense, we discovered it dispenses the wrong amount. The 1/4 cup setting dispenses a little more than 1/4 cup, the 1/2 cup setting dispenses nearly 1 cup, and 3/4 cup setting dispenses over 1.5 cups. It's possible that this is because our cat food is pellets that are pretty small, but either way - if you buy this, be sure to check to see how much it's *actually* dispensing!


5 out of 5 stars Changed My Cat's Life and Ours!   August 13, 2008
We are extremely happy that we purchased this for our cat. It took only 5 minutes to set up. I set it up to serve 1/4 cup twice a day for our 13lb cat. I also tested it, and it really does serve 1/4 cup. I used Hill's Prescription R/D until I read some negative information about the ingredients, so switched to Natural Balance cat food. Both types of food worked perfectly in the automatic feeder. We have had the feeder for a little over a month, and noticed the positive changes immediately (before changing the food). My cat has gone from a 13lb cat that mostly slept, and not much anything else to a playful kitten! She's 8 years old and is acting like a kitten all over again. She also looks like she's lost a little weight. Plus, I don't have to get up at 6am on the weekends to feed her and she doesn't associate us with food. We fed her twice a day everyday, but it would vary by an hour or so before we got the feeder. I guess cats like exact routine because it has made a big difference for her and us!
