Automatic Wet Food Feeders for Kittens

My kittens love wet food and are always at the bowls. I needed a way to keep it fresh while I’m away.

How the Feeder Works

The automatic wet food dispenser has six compartments that open one by one at preset times. It can provide a maximum of six meals in 24 hours, or as little as one. I bought two feeders, one for each kitten, and they provide four meals of fresh wet food in 24 hours. The feeder makes a subtle noise as it turns the top cover, revealing the next food-filled compartment, followed by a gentle beep. It keeps wet food fresh for just over 24 hours. There is a place to put coolers below the food bowl compartment to keep the food from spoiling.

What the Kittens Think

The kittens got used to the feeder instantly and still visit it even when it is not in use. They love wet food and are always present at the bowls. Minnie is a quick eater and goes from one bowl to the other, while Miki’s preference for wet food is unpredictable and changes from day to day. Miki prefers an abundance of dry food in multiple locations around the house and chooses the attic as his favorite spot to rest and eat. He also loves using the water fountains and drinks more than the kittens.

Key takeaways

  • The feeder has six compartments that open at preset times.
