Auto pet feeders
Who makes the best auto pet feeder? I bought one about 2 years ago from
Fosters but it just dispenses food at a given time of day for a given increment of time and I found this to put out irregular amounts especially after the cat figured out how to reach behind the little flapper and make more come out. Then when the next timer went off the little auger was about empty from him picking at it and would only drop out about a dozen morsels. I just bought an eight day feeder that has 8 separate containers and you can put exact amounts in each, you can also record a message for your cat to hear each feeding. The only problem with this unit is that only 7 of the compartments are covered at a time so I guess it is really only a 7 day feeder. Another wards if I have the thing set to feed at 5PM and want to fill all the containers up at noon he will be able to eat one container right away and then he will get another at 5PM when the timer goes off. The other thing I do not like is that the top turns and so some of the containers are towards the back if you have it against the wall it makes it awkward for the pet to reach and eat out of. |
