About this item
- Key Benefits: Prevents food stealing and stress at mealtimes in multi-pet homes, keeps your pets healthier by controlling portions and helping to keep weight under control, saves money by not overfeeding expensive prescription foods and helping to avoid vet bills related to pet health conditions.
- Great for Pets on Prescription Diets: Holds 13.5 fl. oz, wet or dry pet food. The lid closes to form a seal with the neoprene lip, helping to retain moisture and to keep food fresher longer.
- Microchip Compatibility: Works with 9 (Avid Secure), 10 (FDXA) and 15 (FDXB) digit microchip numbers; if unsure of your pet’s microchip number, you can check with your veterinarian, pet shelter or animal rescue. Automatic Cat Feeder opens when the assigned pet microchip ID approaches, and closes when it moves away. Simple one button programming.
- Three Year Warranty. Veterinarian Recommended.
- Do you have a houseful of pets? Does one cat steal the other’s cat food? Does your dog steal the cat’s food? Stressful Feeding times? The Microchip Pet Feeder makes feeding times so much easier! It uses the pet’s Microchip ID or by wearing a lightweight RFID collar tag to communicate with the feeder to open for that specific pet. All feeders come standard with one tag (unit stores 32 ID’s); additional collar tags can be purchased separately if necessary. Ideally one feeder per pet.

They include a second, divided bowl, a silicone mat for the ramp at the front, and an RFID collar tag in case your cat isn’t microchipped. Mine are, but it’s worth mentioning that the tag is quite small and light compared to the tags sold with other feeders; I wouldn’t feel too badly about putting this one on my cat’s collars if needed. Everything is attractive, well made, and easy to operate and clean.
I have used these both with my pet's subcutaneous microchip and with the collar tag microchips, both work great (as long as their subcu microchip is near one of their front shoulders). Easy to set up, the batteries (4 x Cs) actually last a very long time even with frequent use; in my experience, the better part of a year.
I love that each one comes with collar microchips (so you don't need to buy a separate set, like I first thought), and with two different types of bowl. The bowls simply lift out and are easy to clean. I have even heated wet cat food up in the microwave in them with no issues.
One thing to make note of; the clear sliding lid can be broken into by the cats if you don't make sure to slide the locking switch into the "locked" position after you've reassembled after cleaning. I did not discover this fact until I was about fed up with my cats breaking into each others' bowls (which still took them quite a while to figure out). Now that I know, they have not been able to break in.
The main con is that the overall feeder can be a pain to clean because of the hinge and various nooks and crannies, but this is in no way a dealbreaker, and is in fact a very minor complaint of mine. The gray rubber mats on the front of the feeder are removeable for easy cleaning.
The feeders are a bit bulky I suppose (see cat in picture for scale), but I don't mind this. They have a sleek design that looks very modern and aesthetically pleasing. My cats took to them almost immediately, with little to no introductory training needed.
No other automatic pet feeder on the market even comes close to these, and hasn't for years. I recommend these to all my friends that have cats on prescription foods, or cats that fight over food or are picky eaters. Worth the money!

My story: I have one young Maine coon-mix, hyperactive cat which is a grazer and doesn't eat much at one time and another senior, alpha kitty which can eat a buffalo and still be hungry. I give them canned food (1/2 of 3oz can each) for both breakfast and dinner and used to leave them 1/4 cup high-quality dry food in separate bowls for them to munch through the day while I am gone for work. However my senior kitty (she is a bully) would eat most of the food and started getting really fat. So I got this for the younger grazer so that he can munch to his will all day.
Pros: 1) it can read both microchip and RFID chip which it comes with.
2) it comes with two bowls and since it becomes airtight, one can leave canned food in it instead of dry food if you need to.
3) it can hold 2 cups of dry food which can last for at least 2-4 days depending on if you supplement with wet food.
4) you can lock out your other cat so it works great for households with multiple cats or dogs where you need to feed one or more cat more or a prescription diet.
5) It has a learning program in it to use to train your cat. My cat learnt to eat from it very easily, almost in the first attempt. But then my cats are freakishly smart sometimes so I don't know if other cats will learn it this fast or not.
Cons:
1) it doesn't have a hood of any kind which is stupid as the other cat learnt to eat from the other side again at the first attempt. (Told you my cats are freakishly smart). I solved this by putting it between stuff so that the only way to go near it is the front, like the pic I shared (I am smart too.. Haha).
2) Doesn't hold enough food if you need to leave your cats for a long weekend trip. Not really a huge problem but I don't know why this thing doesn't come with a food storage attached, as that would solve the open backside thing too.
3) The cat which is allowed to eat can eat too much if he's in the mood. Sometimes he will eat so much that he won't eat the wet food anymore.
Specific problems I had with my unit:
1) I think my product was defective or something because it didn't recognize my younger cat's microchip. However, it did recognize my fat cat's microchip so I didn't understand what the issue was. Also, it recognized the RFID chip so I used it for my younger, grazer cat.
2) the unit started malfunctioning a bit within a few days and would not open on time sometimes and my cat would sit in front of it confused.
It's so expensive that I didn't want to risk it anymore so I returned it.
I ended up buying another RFID feeder called Wireless Whiskers (I bought a used one from eBay so it was much cheaper than the original price). It had all the pros except that I can't use it with wet food but it also solved all the cons as both cats can use it and I can allot a time for either of them and no one eats too much. And it's working great for the last 3 months.

We bought it so Cat A (big urgent appetite) could not raid the food of Cat B (slow grazer). This was especially important as Cat B is diabetic so we need to know what he is actually eating. The feeder has turned out to be an excellent choice. Cat B learned very quickly how to open it and Cat A has given up trying to get to the food. It also prevents our new puppy from nibbling cat food.
It was expensive but, spread over the years, it is effective enough to be well worth the price. Various vet friends have been impressed that this feeder works so well for both wet and dried food. It comes with two food dishes so you can clean one while the cat eats from the other. It is very easy to wipe clean. And the batteries (no cord) last many months.
One note: The feeder arrives with a microchip tag for the cat's collar but no need to use that if your cat is microchipped; the feeder reads the one implanted in the cat very well.
Le mécanisme est fiable avec des réglages intelligents et utiles. Le nettoyage est aisée grâce aux diverses parties amovibles.
Je trouve de plus l'esthétisme plutôt réussi.
Si je devais faire une petite réserve ce serait sur la largeur "du berceau" qui sert de poignée. L'un de mes chats est très grand et est visiblement gêné par le frottement de ses moustaches sur les cotés. Il a pris l'habitude de sortir les croquettes avec ses pattes. Il en laisse parfois sur le tapis devant, ce que n'a pas manqué remarquer l'autre minette très gourmande ! :-D ...
Je recommande très vivement ce produit qui a mis fin à une prise de tête.
