This would hopefully avoid the need for the owner to have to get out of bed from the constant pawing and licks to the face just to go and point to the feeder at 4am!

If you or your pet aren't 100% satisfied with a new food, we'll give you a full refund and you can keep the bag! I will only use my cat feeder if I go off for the day and I have pre-set 4 feeding times (1) 8:30: (2) 12:30, (3) 18:00 and (4) 22:30.Mallory Crusta, our Head of Content, tested the Cat Mate C500 Automatic Pet Feeder in October of 2021, and I tested it myself this year. While the Cat Mate C500 Automatic Pet Feeder may not have all the whistles and bells you might find in other programmable feeders, it has its upsides. Here’s a review from someone in a similar position to you: “For the most part, this is a great feeder while we are traveling and have sitter come once per day. Not all automatic feeders are created equal since some can only dispense dry food while others can handle wet food. Our Barnabys product range is shipped via a third party and is usually handled by DPD on a free next day service, again this cannot be guaranteed and can take a few days to be processed.

The Cat Mate C500 Automated Pet Feeder is designed to ensure your pet receives their daily food intake. My cat Mate C500 is currently in storage, and I can’t check to get the exact depth of the cooler compartment, but I believe a 1 3/8″ thick ice pack would be too thick.

As previously mentioned, it has two ice pack compartments built in under the feeding area to add the included ice packs. For easy, quick and thorough cleaning, the top of the automatic feeder can be removed, as can the bowls. This automatic cat food dispenser from Closer Pets will serve meals at various pre-programmed times, leaving you to wake up fresh and rejuvenated after a well-earned lie-in – plus it’s also handy if you’re planning to go out at your critter’s normal mealtime.
