Can I really use wet food in this feeder?
Yes! Unlike tower feeders that clog with moisture, our six-grid design features independent compartments. You can place wet food, treats, or dry kibble in each tray. We recommend using wet food for meals scheduled within 24 hours to ensure freshness.
How do the "Music" reminders work?
You can set a musical alert that plays when the tray rotates to the next meal. This creates a positive association for your pet, letting them know it's time to eat even if you aren't in the room.
What is the maximum number of meals per day?
The feeder has 6 separate grids. You can program it to provide 6 meals over 6 days, or 3 meals a day for 2 days—the choice is yours! The digital timer is highly flexible for your pet's specific routine.
Is it safe for my pet's paws?
Absolutely. The rotating mechanism is designed with safety sensors to ensure it won't rotate if it detects resistance, protecting curious paws from getting pinched or stuck.
Does it require batteries or a plug?
This model is designed for maximum portability and safety (no cords to chew!) and typically runs on 3 AA batteries. This allows you to place the feeder anywhere in your home without worrying about being near an outlet.
