PETLIBRO RFID Multiple Cats Feeder 2 Packs, Tag Activated Exclusive Meals, 5G&2.4G Wi-Fi Auto Food Dispenser for Pets with Different Diets and Stop Food Stealing

Got this for both my cats since they needed to go on different diets and it’s worked great so far. I do wish the lids closed a bit faster cause my chunky cat can steal sneak in to her sisters and steal a bite but overall they work well and were easy to set up.

These are absolutely amazing when you have to control portions for multiple cat. Just by being able to control my cats' portions, my overweight cat is no longer overeating (lost a pound so far), and my other cat is free to graze throughout the day whenever he pleases. At first, one of my cat was terrified of the bowl, even though it's not loud. After a few days putting food closer and closer to it, she got used to the noise and now is back to eating normally. The app setup and assembly are easy to do. You can set the time and number of portion dispensed. The overweight cat used to eat her food too quickly and then would vomit it immediately, so I feed her small portions, but more often. It comes with the cord and plug, and you may put batteries as a backup if you want, but it's not necessary. I recommend these bowl if you have multiple cats with different food type or if one overeats.

Update, 1.5 months after use: If I could return this device, I would. This has been a massive waste of money. The door is now getting stuck open, the time delay to close the door after the cat walks away does not work, constantly get errors on the door. This device was not properly tested in a real world environment. If you have more than one cat, find another product, this device is just not ideal. Original review: I bought this feeder because I have two cats on different dry food diets. I needed a solution that would allow each cat to access only their designated food. Unfortunately, this feeder falls short. The main issue is with the door mechanism. It doesn’t close if both cats are present—meaning the cat who shouldn’t be eating the food can still sneak in alongside the correct cat. Ideally, the door should only remain open when the authorized cat is eating alone. This is a significant design flaw that could potentially be resolved with a software update. Another problem is the RFID sensor placement. If you have a smaller cat, their tag may hang into the metal tray and block the signal, causing the door to close prematurely. A better design would have included multiple sensor locations to account for tag movement and different cat sizes. The feeder door also doesn’t open fully—it blocks roughly 20% of the tray, forcing the cats to use their paws to reach food. On top of that, the tray is shallow, rectangular, and has tight corners, which makes it hard for the cats to reach food with their mouths. There’s a reason most pet bowls are round and concave: they funnel food toward the center for easier access. Lastly, the motor that controls the door is weak. My cats have already figured out that they can force the door back open if they push hard enough while it’s closing. The software that controls the feeder is effective and easy to use. It allows you to schedule feedings in 1/12-cup increments and supports multiple feeding times throughout the day.

These feeders are working well and giving my cats what they need with some irritations surrounding the dispensed amounts. Pros: - Arrived quickly - Easy to put together - Easy to setup - Works well - Love the phone app! Cons: - The smallest dispensed amount shows as 1/12 cup which would be perfect if it was truly 1/12 of a cup. I originally set it up for 6 feedings per day which would have been a half cup of food per day for each cat. Perfect. Except the "1/12" cup is really closer to 1/4 to 1/3 cup by volume so I was way overfeeding my cats! Luckily I realized it pretty early on so I changed the feeding schedule to twice per day. One cat always has food in her dish but the one I have to watch for obesity is always looking for more food. I would prefer to give him smaller meals 4-6 times per day but the feeder will not dispense a smaller amount. This is the reason for the 4 star review. This is really disappointing. I think he'd be happier "grazing" several times per day if I could do this with this feeder. - The feeders are expensive - The collars that come with the device are terrible. I replaced them with breakaway collars I purchased. I just put the sensor on the new collars - the feed doors are slow to close so if you have a sneaky cat or dog hanging around nearby, they may be able to snatch a few bites before the door closes. - this feeder requires a collar sensor. I find myself wishing I could have found one that works by sensing the cat's microchip. All in all these feeders are doing what I needed which was to feed different food to each cat without my dog stealing it. In this they are working. I just wish they would dispense smaller amounts so I could feed more times per day. I attached a picture of a 1/3 measuring cup. It is hard to see but that cup is nearly full. It is dispensing way more than 1/12 of a cup.
