I've had my feeder for over 15 years and never a problem . Several cats have used it and all have loved it. I generally don't go away for more than three days , I program slightly different times to make it interesting and confirm battery strength before setting it up . It seems to use very little power.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive this automatic pet feeder for my cats from Influencer! The product itself is very nice, once it’s set up. Programming the timing took a bit, but was able to set it up as we needed. The kitties have taken to it quite easily, and we’re excited to try it out on a weekend away. Packaging was a nightmare to get though, as evidenced by the picture taken—please make it easier! Finally, the product does take up quite a bit of space, but I’ll gladly accept that for the convenience of feeding the kitties!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product for free for my honest review. My cat pickle has decided that this cat feeder is a chair to sit on when he eats and drinks water. He was a little scared of it at first but it took him maybe a day or two to get used to it and now he doesn’t mind it! I like how it can keep portions for a few feedings if I’m having to go out of town for a day or two.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pet feeder has made things so much easier when feeding our cat. Sometimes we are not home when it is feeding time, and you can set this to feed exactly when you want. It’s very easy to clean, and I like that there are 5 different slots for food.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This automatic pet feeder is exactly what I needed in my household. My cat needed to go on a diet, and I wanted to give my cat a set schedule. Setting the time schedules was easy, and I was able to set it for every 12 hours. I like knowing I can give my cat a healthy amount of food at any given time. It also helps when i go out of town for the weekend, l I know my cat will be able to follow its feeding schedule.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This programmable portion feeder works exactly as described. The feeder can feed up to 5 one cup portions however you like. The feeder is made of plastic, easy to clean & can be put in the dishwasher.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found this product interesting. It’s pretty easy to program, and it definitely limits my cats’ portions. I think it’s a decent product. The only downfall is needing four D batteries to operate it.

[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.
