I have to use the microchip feeder with Ozzy or he would never get food


I know you’ve discussed this in the past. Which brand do you use and how did your cats take to it?

this is what I got
amazon.co.uk

takes the big chunky D batteries

The instructions imply that it takes days to get them used to it but Ozzy was happy by the end of the 1st day
I got in 2 years ago (almost to the day!) and Dio still gets annoyed that it won't open like magic for him

I have found it OK to leave packet mix in it for 24 hrs

Ozzy is fussy some days he will eat it some days he won't! Such a diva!!

Yes Sunny is a grazer so this might be helpful as, early days, but feeding separately is challenging as she doesn’t finish hers.

that's why we had to get Ozzy the feeder
he drazes and is also a slow eater whereas Dio inhales his food in seconds

Dio has occasionally got into Ozzy's feeder - he sits by the side and paws out food whilst he is eating! Or dashes in and pulls the bowl out (no mean feat as it's in a recess)

or Ozzy, knowing that Dio gets told off for stopping Ozzy feeding!, sits close enough to open it and lets Dio barge in then looks for us to tell him off!!
