Automatic Feeders

Our automatic feeders include timed and portion-controlled dispensers that deliver set meals through the day, helping with routine and weight management. As a buying tip, check the hopper capacity, power options and whether it suits your food type, and always keep a manual feeding backup in case of a power or jam issue.

An automatic feeder dispenses a set portion of dry food at set times, which makes it useful for two quite different situations: keeping a food-motivated pet to a proper portion, and covering a feeding time when nobody is actually home to do it by hand.

What's in this aisle

The Smart App-Controlled Automatic Pet Feeder and the Smart Automatic Pet Feeder with Twin Bowls both let you schedule several small meals a day and, in the app-controlled models, adjust or trigger a feed remotely from your phone. The Dual-Bowl Automatic Cat Feeder is aimed specifically at multi-cat households, letting two cats feed from the same unit on separate schedules.

Simpler models, like the Automatic Dry Food Feeder with Stainless Steel Bowl, work on a basic timer without an app, which suits anyone who wants portion control without needing to manage a phone connection or Wi-Fi setup.

What to check before buying

Hopper capacity matters if you're feeding a larger dog or want to leave a feeder topped up over a weekend away — check how many days' worth of food the hopper actually holds at your pet's normal portion size, not just its total volume. A stainless steel bowl rather than plastic is easier to keep clean and less likely to cause the chin irritation some cats get from plastic.

If you're using a feeder to manage a multi-pet household, check whether the model is genuinely built for it, like the Dual-Bowl Automatic Cat Feeder, rather than trying to run two separate feeding schedules from a single-bowl unit.

Getting the most from one

Introduce an automatic feeder gradually alongside normal hand-feeding for the first few days, so your pet learns what the noise and movement mean rather than being startled by it at an empty house. Battery backup, where a model offers it, is worth having so a short power cut doesn't mean a missed meal.

A feeder is a tool for timing and portion control, not a substitute for checking in on a pet who's home alone — it won't notice if food gets stuck in the hopper or a bowl needs refilling with water.

Common questions

What food works in an automatic feeder?

Most timed feeders are designed for dry kibble of a suitable size; wet or semi-moist food can spoil and clog the mechanism, so check the product details before using it.

Will it keep feeding during a power cut?

Many feeders include battery backup to protect the schedule, but it is wise to confirm this and keep a manual feeding plan in case of a longer outage.

Can I use one to manage my pet's weight?

Yes — portion control helps maintain steady meal sizes, which supports weight management when combined with the right daily amount advised by your vet.
