will the food get stuck because I have to go away for a few days and I need it for my cat

Answer by ChewyFeb 12, 2019
This feeder is designed for use with dry food only. It is designed to use gravity to bring the kibble down toward the bowl, with use of the incline.

Which dimension is the height?

Answer by ChewyMar 15, 2019
The X-Small measures 9.25 x 5.5 x 7.75 inches and holds up to 1.5 pounds. The Small measures 11.5 x 6.375 x 8.5 inches and holds up to 3 pounds. The Medium measures 14.5 x 8.625 x 11 inches and holds up to 6 pounds and the Large measures 17.375 x 10.25 x 13.25 inches and holds up to 10 pounds. Dimensions are listed as length x width x height.

Does the top lock on if knocked over?

Answer by ChewyMar 14, 2024
While the top is secure, if knocked over while full of food, the force may dislodge the lid.

I can see the dimensions and capacity of the feeders by size, but am wondering about the dimensions of the bowl itself?

Answer by ChewyJun 27, 2019
The amount of food in the bowl will vary depending on how much food is sitting beneath the storage compartment in the center.

It’s ok.

The lid falls off super easy when refilling and takes some maneuvering to keep shut. The food also tends to fall out of the bowl due to overflow when refilling.

Definitely a hit with my cats PJ and Prince!

I bought this in early august for pj and Prince because I figured it’ll help me lessen the amount of times I fill their other food bowls up, at first they were

I bought this in early august for pj and Prince because I figured it’ll help me lessen the amount of times I fill their other food bowls up, at first they were hesitant about it but they quickly realized that there’s extra food it in and began using it. I think it’s a reasonable price. I’ll definitely get it again if anything happens to the one I have.

helpful

my cats are all fussy eaters. Each one has a favorite dry kibble. I have several drop feeders to accommodate them. Works as expected.

Needed a fourth feeder...

We rescued a fourth kitten, Penny and needed a fourth feeder. I was surprised at how much larger this feeder was compared to our other three (purchased at Menards a few years ago) feeders. The design is basically the same, which is why I opted for this particular feeder. Happy kitties, happy fur momma!!!

BIG

I have one of these on a much smaller scale. This thing is huge, even though the description says it's one cup...

Auto dog feeder

It's smaller than I thought, which just means I failed to really look at the dimensions, but it works well for just him.

He and I both like this feeder although the problem occurs when the bowl gets low on food he makes me come and move it down into the bowl he won't use his own paws

Best gravity feeder

I've tried other feeders and I like this one the best for the ease of filling it and the food feeds down effectively.
