How to Choose the Right Cat Feeder?

When I started raising cats, before there was no automatic feeder, I didn’t dare to go far and dare not spend the night outside. I was afraid that no one would feed me, and I was worried that she would not eat or drink at home. Cat food is damp or something. If you really want to travel far, you have to send your dog to a nearby pet shop for foster care, but you dare not go out for too long.

Therefore, it is necessary to prepare an automatic feeder at home in advance, which can prevent some unexpected situations of business trips/tourism/Chinese New Year/short-term travel!

Due to the relatively short digestive tract of cats, the food intake per meal will be relatively small. Sometimes a meal may be "full" with only a few mouthfuls of cat food, and it may take more than a dozen meals in a day. If you put a lot of food in an ordinary cat bowl and leave it for a long time, it will be damp and deteriorate. There is no guarantee that there will be fresh cat food at any time. The automatic feeder can control the cat’s eating habits and prevent it from being hungry or full, or from overeating. In good health.

So how to choose among so many automatic feeders on the market?

1. How to choose an automatic pet feeder
1. Look at the tightness
Sealing is the most important and basic point in choosing an automatic feeder. Be sure to choose feeders that have double or even triple lock technology to keep pet food dry. Especially in such sweltering weather, good sealing performance slows down the oxidation of grains, and the taste period can be extended longer.

2. Look at the capacity
It doesn't matter if you can fill up the food in time when you go to and from get off work. When you go out for a long time such as business trip or travel, you have to consider the capacity of the feeder. Most of the feeders on the market have a capacity between 2L-6L. Friends who don’t know how much capacity to buy can refer to the food consumption of cats at home for a month.

If a cat weighing less than 10 catties can eat about 3 catties in a month, then it is enough to buy a feeder with a size of 1.5kg-4kg.

3. See if there will be food jams
Different automatic feeders have different specifications. Try to choose an automatic feeder with a wider food outlet, so that even if there are large pieces of freeze-dried cat food, the food outlet will not be blocked and the food can be delivered smoothly.

If you don’t know the size of the feeder to choose, you can adapt it according to the size of the dry food your cat eats. For example, if the cat food is 7mm, then choosing a 6mm feeder will cause problems in the feed.

4. See if it is easy to clean
This part depends on whether the feeder can be disassembled and cleaned, and whether the food bowl is made of stainless steel or ceramics, which are easy to clean and will not cause the cat’s black chin.

Otherwise, it is easy to get black chins when you buy a cat, and it is easy to attract bugs at home.

Open the APP, watch the cats eating and playing at home, and you can record a small video to share with your friends when you encounter something interesting.

For cats, it is very important to have an automatic feeder for cats who wait for their owners to come back at home all year round. On the one hand, it can achieve regular and quantitative scientific feeding, and on the other hand, it also allows cats to move through the movement of feeding. Wake up and be happy at home~
