Question 1

How well will this feeder work for two cats? One is a bit greedy.

Accepted Answer

We have had this feeder since Aug 2015 for our 2 small dogs! 1 a 12 lbs poodle and the other a 3 lbs yorkie! This feeder works great for them both had 2 different eating habits and it has tought them they don't have to scarf up there food. That the right amount is in the bowl for both and they have learned tpenjoy eating! they know they will be fed at the same time morning and night! They accually stand at their  dish and have learned to share! They have learned what time it will come out and we don't have to rush home to feed our babies! We just always check 2 a week to make sure that the food container is full & everyday we check to see the batteries are working!

Question 2

As far as the dispensing chute, would a very motivated cat be able to reach their paw up and get food to drop?

Accepted Answer

There's not a ton of room between the bottom of the dispensing part and where the bowl is, so it would probably be difficult for the cat to get a good position to reach up into the chute from underneath. In addition, the conveyer belt that moves the food up has fairly rigid plastic dividers, one of which is always right in front, so that would also block little paws if they managed to get up there somehow.  I haven't had a problem, but my cat also might be too lazy to try. It doesn't seem to me to be as suceptible to break-ins as some of the other feeders I saw when I was looking to buy.

Question 3

How much can the unit hold - if feeding 1/2 cup each day, how many days will the stored food last?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest in this item.  This unit holds 24 cups and can dispense up to 12 meals a day.  If you use 1 cup per day on a 24 cup capacity that would be 24 days. If they use half that amount (1/2 cup) then it would double it to 48 days.

Question 4

How easy is it to tip over?

Accepted Answer

I have a big German Shepherd.  Love this feeder.  He has a dog door so we use this when we're on vaca for up to a week. He has learned he can push it to make a couple of kernerls fall out but he doesn't tip it over and he's an aggressive eater. He's a 125 lbs.
