Review: Excellent reliable programmable cat biscuit feeder - This is excellent, so far had it since October 2024, my cat comes in for an afternoon feed like clockwork now. Very useful for when you are unable to feed your cat i.e. holidays or out for the day. It is easy to programme reliable to use, not had to change the batteries yet after more than six months. Well made and cat proof. I screwed it to a heavy piece of plywood to make sure. Was more reliable than my neighbour who promised to feed my cat wet food whilst I was away but didnt very often (?). Only negative , initially I thought the portion size was a little bit too big. Only improvement I would suggest if they ever remake it is to programme in a half portion to spread food out in smaller installments for cats who are greedy and eat too fast and come in looking for more. Id like to spread out six half portions if I am away and then no need to ask neighbours. But otherwise everything about it design, look ease of use is excellent. The hopper also keeps biscuits fresh, the cat has never refuse any. And only the first time I filled it and tried it did he manage to use his paws to get more biscuits out of the nozzle himself (great video of this) . I also have a Catmate magnetic catflap. So I trust the brand. I bought a different hopper feeder before this one and it had nothing to stop kilos of food spilling out of it.I am glad I bought a real one from Catmate, , the bowl is also very easy to wash.
Review: 5 Stars – Reliable and Precise Pet Feeder - This feeder has been brilliant for managing portion control for our cat and gives us real peace of mind if we’re away for a night or two. The timer is easy to set, the portions are consistent, and it’s been completely reliable so far. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep feeding times regular.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this OK to put human food ? I can't stop eating.**
A: This only works with dry, pellet type food.  I doubt it would work for humans.  If you are capable of setting it in the first place, then you are also smart enough to open it and eat all the food.  I suggest keeping a food diary to be aware of how much you really eat in a day.

**Q: Can this feeder be used without the bowl? I would like to put this up high and use PVC pipe to funnel the food into my cat's dish (it's a long story).**
A: I removed the dish, left the nozzle attached and used a 3" X 1.5" PVC reducer with a notch cut out and used it as a funnel. Go to sosanimalslounge dot com and search Making a vault for the Catmate 3000 to see how it's made.

**Q: My cat does no pace himself while eating and also eats the whole bowl whivh makes it worse. Will this help slow him down?**
A: You can get an insert to put into the bowl to slow him down. I have this feeder and got something like this one http://amzn.to/2GRHdS2 for Ginkgo as she also inhales her food then is confused as to why it's gone. It makes her fish the kibbles one at a time out once they fall into the bowl so she can't just swallow them all whole in one go.

**Q: Can this feeder be electric, or both battery and electric?**
A: Feeder is only battery operated.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars – Reliable and Precise Pet Feeder
*by S***R on 13 November 2025*

The timer is easy to set, the portions are consistent, and it’s been completely reliable so far. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep feeding times regular.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, poor instructions, some design issues
*by L***R on 25 February 2018*

After much deliberation over which auto feeder to go for, I chose this one. It's not really intended for holidays so much as to make sure the cat gets fed at the same times every day, particularly when I'm out of the house for over 12 hours for work. Also to give him a smaller feed in the early hours to stop him trampling me for food at 3am...! The product is fairly easy to assemble if you read the written instructions rather than following the pictures, which are fairly impenetrable. Setting the timer is easy enough but only if you completely ignore the instructions and just apply logic...! Also batteries are not included and are not cheap, so I do hope they last for the advertised time period. The food seems fairly secure inside the hopper. That said my cat, bless him, is not overly endowed with the clever, so it's not even occurred to him to try and get inside the hopper. Smarter cats may have more success! Food dispenses on time in the portions I choose (1 portion seems to be around 12g of Science Diet). It isn't quiet, but I don't hear it in the night or first thing in the morning when it dispenses while I am asleep (though I do wear earplugs to sleep and it's a couple of rooms away). The main issue that I have is just that the dish is so deep that there are some places where the food dispenses that he just can't seem to reach. He may learn this with practice though (I hope so!). Overall it seems to function well, is secure and sturdy and I'm happy with it, but there are some design refinements that could be made, and the instructions could certainly be better...!
