Overview
An automatic cat feeder from PawsPik that reads an existing ISO microchip or an included RFID tag before releasing food, aimed at multi-pet homes where one animal eats another's portion. The hopper holds 16 cups and connects to an app for scheduling.
Closed mode restricts access to the registered pet only, while Open mode allows any pet to feed, so the household decides how strict the gating is. The app supports up to 10 scheduled meals a day with set portion sizes, and a backup battery keeps feeding going through a power outage.
- 16-cup capacity
- Reads ISO microchip or included RFID tag
- Up to 10 scheduled meals via app
- Backup battery for power outages
Who it's for
Multi-cat or multi-pet households that need to stop one animal from stealing another's food, or anyone wanting portion control tied to a specific pet.
Pros and cons
- Gates access by microchip or RFID tag, not just a timer
- 16-cup capacity cuts refill frequency
- Backup battery keeps the schedule during outages
- Full benefit depends on staying in Closed mode, which limits flexibility
- Stainless steel build adds weight at 11 lbs
- Requires the app for scheduling
Performance notes
A microchip sensor reads the pet's ISO chip or the supplied RFID tag before opening; the app handles scheduling and portion sizes, and a backup battery covers power interruptions.
