Cat Mate C500 Automatic Pet Feeder Cat or Small Dog Bowl with Digital Timer For Wet or Dry Pet Food, 5 Meal Carousel, up to 330g in each, with Twin Ice Packs for Food Freshness

Product Information

Designed to be tamper resistant to pets, the C500 may be easily fastened to a wooden board for extra stability, if required.

The majority of users love the timer, praising it for it simplicity, but some (conversely) found it slightly too complicated. No consensus there, then, but it does appear to work reliably. The mechanics, perhaps not so much, again depending on who you ask. A few users have found their C500s went a little rogue, rotating the platters incessantly or misaligning the food trays; some of these tales sound like user error more than any great fault with the hardware, but they should offer something to think about if you're planning to use this to feed your cats while you're away for a little while. Our C500 5 Automatic Bowl Feeder allows you to set down a meal, with 4 more bowls hidden, to be presented at the time you choose Missed Feedings– If for some reason your pet doesn’t eat a meal before it advances to the next feeding, your cat will miss that feeding.

The feeder is no longer exactly under the top lid. You see 2x half a feeder. The cat cannot reach it. Five large food compartments each hold 330g (3/4 lb) of food (or the equivalent volume of dried food) – enough for two cats or a small dog This automatic feeder is primarily designed for indoor use. You may be able to use it outdoors in a covered shaded area but it won’t be able to keep the food fresh for as long, plus it may attract other animals, critters and bugs.

Cat Proof– It doesn’t take much for most cats to break into a feeder but this one is as cat proof as they get. Easy-to-use digital timer allows you to programme up to four individual mealtimes with one bowl available immediately.Great product and easy to use. It stood up to the cat trying to get to the food the first time we used it, she is a hunter and could smell the food inside! Worthy of consideration if you need an automatic pet feeder that can be used with wet food. It really is the best option. If you don’t need 5 servings per day Cat Mate also makes a similar 3 Meal Pet Feeder and 2 Bowl Pet Feeder. Although a 5 day feeder, the carousel revolves underneath a lid that has an opening, and as there are only 5 compartments 1 meal is available as soon as the feeder is placed on the ground, so really its only 4 away days.
