 It does the job wellJan 02, 2004
I've had this automatic feeder for 2 years. It works great and has eliminated the screaming my cat used to do before meals. Now she just sits in front of the feeder and waits for it to go off. It holds 6 meals (but one is exposed so it really only has 5 meals). The cover rotates to expose a new meal every 6, 12, or 24 hours. My cat has been very abusive to the machine (because she can smell the food in it) however she has not been able to break the cover or get to any of the other food compartments. If you do force the machine to go backwards the motor will kick on and rotate the cover back to the correct position. My only real problem with the feeder is that the motor is quite loud and drains the battery very quickly. Also as a note, there is no way to set the hour on the feeder, it just goes off 6,12, or 24 hours after you turned it on. So if you want it to always go off at 7am you would need to turn the power on at 7am/pm the first time.

 My cats broke into this in no timeFeb 22, 2006
By Matthew Pearson
This product has such severe design flaws that I am surprised Amazon is willing to sell it.
I have two housecats and they figured out how to break into this feeder within six hours. It consists of basically three parts: an outer gray tray which is broken into six small dishes; a rotating lid; and a central core that takes a 9V battery and rotates every 6, 12 or 24 hours. The trouble is, the central piece only loosely snaps into the base. You can work it lose with one finger (or paw) prying at the perimeter of the dish. Like I said, one of my cats figured this out very quickly.
In addition the build quality is poor, the lid does not line up very well with the feed trays so a determined cat can work her nose into the next dish, and the nine volt battery lead was so short it took a long time to get the thing plugged in.
My cats are not particularly big or strong. The packaging has a photo of a dog eating out of this tray; I find it hard to believe the manufacturer ever tested it with a dog, if cats can break it I can imagine a dog would make short work of it.
Shipping and handling cost over 25% of the price, and now that it's been broken by my cats there's not much point in waiting on hold to return it (the vendor does not have an email form to get an RMA number).
Buyer beware. Thought I'd post a review so that other people don't make the mistake I did.

It's OkayMay 02, 2003
By James H Drury
It works fine and has ice packs that can be frozen and placed in the bottom. It has 6 compartments, but one is always exposed so the first one is wasted right when you put the food out. My cat likes to eat twice a day so it's only good for about 2 1/2 days. The ice packs don't chill the food very long so I've noticed that the last compartment or two the food is untouched because the wet food was spoiled.

Not cat proof! But it can be salvaged......May 13, 2007
By Michelle
I bought this automatic feeder because my cat requires medicine every 12hrs, which makes vacations and special events difficult. I decided to test my cat's strength and resolve andplaced wet food (without meds) in the feeder. My cat tore the lid off in under 5 minutes!!! As it is, its totally useless, it is held together by plastic snap notches!
HOWEVER, when I took it apart I figured out a way to MAKE IT totally cat proof-I removed from the bottom piece the screws that hold the plastic notches in place. This leaves 4 holes that correspond to 4 holes at the bottom of the motor (where it used to snap into place. If you run screws/washers through these holes, and use bolts on the bottom---NO CAT WILL BE ABLE TO OPEN IT!!!! Well, unless he is able to rip thick plastic apart itself. But my cat hasn't been able to do that yet. After about 10 minutes of pawing biting, and growling at the feeder he gets bored and just waits for the feeding time!
Good luck!!!

 Pet weight control dream machineMar 06, 2005
By A. Platinum
"OTR Driver"
I've owned this for at least three years now. I've found I need to change the batteries about every four months but I keep it set to feed every 12 hours so this is acceptable to me. My cat's biggest complaint is that her owner sometimes neglects to fill it often enough but she has discovered that biting her stupid sleeping human will prompt the lazy human into action. LOL
That aside this device has enabled me to get my overweight cat down to a healthy weight. I use only dry food so I didn't fill the included water bottles at first but I've found that filling them helps add weight to the unit that keeps it more stable on the floor. (I was very pleased to find they don't leak too!)
This device has gone through some abuse, drops of 6 feet, sustained sub zero temps and triple digit temps as well. It has a few scratches and some gouges but it is still perfectly usable. The unit does run slowly when the batteries are getting low. I use this as a warning to have fresh batteries ready. Battery hatch is screwed in with a small Phillips head screw that I've learned to keep a special small head Phillips screw driver with the cat food to ensure that I can get he thing open. Getting the battery to make good contact is sometimes a challenge but so far I've always succeeded. I've considered getting a second unit and setting both to open at 24 hr intervals... 12 hours apart from each other. Then I really could go 6 days without having to fill it but then as my cat has convinced me I'm a bit lazy!
