[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good product, and I like it, but there are some things that could make it either the right product for you or not the right product for you and I feel like you should know them before you buy! I have a cat who is 10 years old. I work a night shift, and I feed him when I get home in the morning. However, on my days off, I am asleep at the time that I usually get home. And this cat thinks that the best way to get fed in the morning is to tap my face with his paw.. and when I don’t wake up right away, he will put his claws out a little bit and tap my eye and generally be literally the most annoying cat ever. When I got the chance to try this pet feeder I was super psyched because I thought maybe this could solve my 7 AM face tap issue! This product was gifted to me by influenster and Petsafe in exchange for my honest review. Good things about this product- It’s lightweight and low profile and can fit almost anywhere. it holds five servings of food. I set it to run just once a day in the morning at 7 am, because that’s when I need it. It was really easy to program… similar to programming a digital clock. It’s cordless. It’s relatively inexpensive compared to some other automatic feeders. There are some things about this product that could be issues for you, depending on your needs. To me they don’t really matter very much, but I feel like they could matter a lot to certain people. First, it runs on four D batteries. So I did have to run out and buy batteries when I got it. They are not included. Most things nowadays are rechargeable so this was kind of a surprise. However, no cord to lose, no waiting for it to charge. There is no indicator light or way as far as I can see to tell when the batteries need to be changed… So I have no idea how long they will last. Will the cost of replacing 4 D batteries be worth it? This could be a real problem, but I am just using this as a supplementary feeder so I’m not too worried about it. My second issue is that the display and buttons are very small when it comes to setting it. Someone with diminished vision or fine motor control could have a problem setting this thing. The display isn’t illuminated and could be hard to see. There’s no app or alternative way to set it. The cost of this feeder is lower than other automated pet feeders… But I feel like the simplicity of the design is one of the things that contributes to that cost savings. However, you have to determine if those features are needed for you. If you don’t need bells and whistles and don’t mind replacing batteries, this could be the perfect little feeder for you. My cat has no problem eating out of this and does eat the kibble. He still taps my face on my day off, but I feel like that’s an issue with my cat, not the feeder- and influenster hasn’t asked me to review the cat. I’ve only had the feeder for about a month, so who knows… maybe he will catch on, or maybe he just likes annoying me! I feel like depending on your needs, this could be a 2 star product or a five star, so I settled on 4, since it works for me, but I really wish there was some kind of battery indicator.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had to put our cat on a diet. He was a bit overweight the automatic feeder made it so easy to portion his meals for the week!! Five compartments, easy to program, but it takes 4 D batteries

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have different programming options easy to clean durable. The portion control is amazing never overfeed. It’s very quiet. My cat is always fed on time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got my hands on the product! My first thought was, ‘How will my cat react to it?’ I’m a big fan of the spinning mechanism. I’ve cleaned it and put in the batteries so far, so it looks good. The only thing I’m a bit worried about is the control. My cat is a tabby, and he loves to eat. So, I’m not sure how he’ll take to it. But hey, I’m excited to see how it goes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super easy to use and program. Very hearty and durable. Color is neutral so easy on the eyes and able to go with a wide variety of decor. My only complaint is how loud it is when it advances, but only because my cat is very skittish.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been trying the PetSafe 5 Meal Pet Feeder for a little while now, and it’s definitely made feeding my pet a bit easier. With a busy schedule, I often worry about missing feeding times, but this automatic feeder makes sure my pet gets their meals on time. I like that I can schedule 1-5 meals a day with the digital clock and set the exact time for each meal. The removable tray holds up to 1 cup of food per section, which is ideal for dry or semi-moist food. The tray rotates automatically when it’s time for the next meal, so my pet always has access to food. It’s also easy to clean, as the tray is dishwasher safe. Overall, the PetSafe 5 Meal Pet Feeder is a solid option for anyone looking to simplify feeding times for their pets. It’s practical and does the job well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The idea of this is wonderful. I have a very fat cat who needs portion control. It’s nicely made easy to clean and pretty straightforward instructions. Unfortunately, my cat is so afraid of it, but he won’t go near it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] my cats love this product! they’re a little on the bigger side & this helps them eat normal portions throughout the day instead of them sitting and eating a whole bowl in one sitting. it’s easy to put together & clean, with simple instructions.
