"Very reliable and perfect for feeding my bunny pellets without making her wait."
·
"I have this one. Runs on batteries, and my cats can't open it. 5 feeding spots."
·
"I’ve used this one for almost 4 years now and it’s still going strong. My cat hasn’t been able to get it open (he’s tried a lot). You don’t have to refill it very often and it’s been reliable."
·
"The food storage is locked so the cats or bugs wouldn’t get in."
·
"PetSafe Healthy pet is a good one if you want protection from the bugs."

Fish Mate

"This one lets you portion it out, kind of like one of those prescription pill organizers."
·
"It does its job perfectly every time."
·
"I like the fish mate automatic feeder, it has a little wheel of compartments so you can pre portion out how much you want to feed at each meal."
·
"It's much safer and reliable than a feeder that dispenses a random amount of those tiny pellets."
·
"I use this one regularly, it disperses the food over two hours, and only disperses the amount of food you put in the little section."

Amazon

"I recommend buying a set of two child locks to ensure kitty does not open the top."
·
"The opening is still quite big and would drop too many pellets for my fish so I made it smaller using some tape."
·
"This is the updated version of the feeder that works well."
·
"This feeder is great for my aggressive cat who can open doors and cabinets."
·
"The feeder seems inefficient for keeping greens since it relies on an ice pack."

"Most cat feeders work fine with rabbit pellets."
·
"I have been using this one since September with no problems. You are able to change portion sizes."

Eheim

"The Eheim auto-feeder is great for daily feeding, but be careful with the opening size."
·
"Eheim is my go-to for basic auto feeders. It might take a little bit to balance correctly on the evo's hood and might spill a bit off and down the sides, but it'll work fine."

Casfuy

"I bought the Casfuy feeder off Amazon because it plugs in but also has battery backup in case the power goes out while you’re away. You can also record your voice to tell the cat/dog it’s time to eat."

"The plate is large enough to hold plenty of food and gives my cat enough space that his long whiskers don't get in his way."

"I highly recommend this feeder! I've had it for a little over a year and it has been consistent."

"They work great! I would definitely recommend propping them up though, because condensation can potentially jam the feeder."

"I was able to use it on my cat while overseas - it shows how much they eat, you can schedule feedings, and you can dispense small amounts if needed."
