FAQs

What type of food can I use with this feeder?

This feeder is designed for dry kibble. Please ensure the kibble size is suitable for the dispenser to prevent jams. Wet food, treats, or very large/irregularly shaped kibble are not recommended.

How often do I need to refill the food tank?

The 4.5L tank capacity means it can hold a significant amount of food. Refill frequency depends on your cat's daily portion size, but it can typically last several days to over a week on a single fill.

What happens if the power goes out?

The feeder has a dual power supply system. It operates on AC power and includes a battery backup (3 D-cell batteries, not included) to ensure your pet continues to receive meals without interruption.

How do I clean the feeder?

The food tank and stainless steel bowl are detachable and can be washed with mild soap and water. Wipe the main body of the feeder with a damp cloth. Ensure all parts are thoroughly dry before reassembly.

Can I program multiple meals per day?

Yes, you can customize the feeding schedule to include multiple meals per day, along with specific portion sizes for each meal.

Is assembly difficult?

The feeder requires some basic assembly. The process typically involves attaching the food tank to the base and securing the lid. Instructions are provided to guide you through the steps.

Can this feeder be used for dogs?

Yes, if your dog eats dry kibble and the size is compatible with the feeder's dispensing mechanism, it can be used for small to medium-sized dogs.

Troubleshooting

Feeder does not power on.

Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into the feeder and a working outlet. Check that backup batteries are installed correctly and have sufficient charge.

Food is not dispensing.

Verify that the food tank is not empty. Check for any food jams in the dispenser mechanism and clear them. Ensure the programming is set correctly for dispensing.

Dispensed portions are inconsistent.

Ensure the kibble size is uniform and compatible with the feeder. Check for any obstructions in the dispensing chute. Recalibrate portion settings if possible.

Voice message is not playing.

Ensure the message was recorded correctly and the volume is turned up. Check the playback function.

Feeder door is stuck.

Gently try to open the feeder door manually. Check for obstructions around the door mechanism.
