Cat Mate Five-Meal Automatic Feeder with Stainless Steel Bowl Inserts and Ice Packs (C500)

Génial. Basic. Fait bien le job. Mon chat l’a vite adopté. Je pense reprendre des packs de glace car je l’utilise h24 et ça n’a pas le temps de se refroidir dans le congélateur.

Świetny automat dla kota, używam go tylko do mokrej karmy. Kotkowi 2 dni zajęło przyzwyczajenie się do niego, jak słyszy dźwięk obracających się talerzy od razu przybiega bo wie że będzie dla niego jedzenie. Kotek zadowolony jak mnie nie ma w domu bo jest teraz w końcu najedzony. Miski metalowe rewelacyjne. Ogólnie polecam.

What a fantastic device this is. Our three year old Bengal boy has become a night cat, and demands his food in the very early hours, meaning an often broken sleep for my wife (chief feeder, in separate room) . We can now load the feeder up before bed, and time his meals to not only spread them out, but to avoid prolonged pestering through the night. It took a few days for him to get used to it, but now he knows the food is there, and coming soon. The noise it makes, and movement, hasn’t been an issue. He barely flinched. My wife no longer has to get up at 3am every day and is now sleeping much better. I have zero negatives for the feeder. He seems to make less mess with this than his bowls, it’s easier to clean, and simple to use. We don’t bother aligning the zeros as we always know exactly which meals are next and in which order. I recommend ordering a spare pair of ice packs so you can swap them over each day. We’ll load up his next four meals today for the usual times whilst we’re out. No more asking for help feeding or feeding outside of his usual routine. It’s honestly great and been a revelation for us.

Bit fiddly to set up .Contacted customer service first day and they still have not responded after approx a month.Figured it out eventually. The individually trays are small they could be a big bigger to allow the cat to get the food when the food moves to the walk of the tray. Use the ice packs during this summer as get home late on ocassions.Works good. I will use the icepacks and also freeze the wet food so it can thaw out and keep fresh. for the day. The individual trays are very convenient.Great little purchase but felt price a bit high.

This works perfectly for our needs! We use it to leave wet food for our cat's lunch while we are at work, and occasionally her wet food dinner if we're going to be away for the evening. Reviews that mention that the ice packs don't stay cold very long are correct; I wouldn't leave wet food in there for any longer than 24 hours. Like if I was going on an overnight trip, I would use it, but not if I was going to be gone more than one night. It's loud, but we like that because it cues us on weekends and evenings that it's lunch/dinner time. It REALLY helps our very regimented cat stay on her schedule that she is quite devoted to. I'm still using the same batteries I put in back on August, so battery life seems good to me, too. One thing I really love is the removable stainless steel bowls. I pre measure her wet food servings during the week and put the bowls in the fridge with fabric bowl covers. There is no smell seepage and it's super convenient to just pull it out of the fridge and pop a premade serving in the feeder when we leave for work soooo early. This also is why we don't really need to depend on the ice packs.
