A few years ago I made the mistake of buying half a dozen 'smart' pet feeders for my cats. A month after investing close to a thousand dollars, that other company went belly up. Those feeders *required* internet connection not just for programming, but to work at all. With company cloud servers gone - the most valuable part of that purchase was the boxes my cats played in.
So this time - I wanted something that could work entirely off grid. I converted a bed room in my home to a cat room, subdivided into suites for each of my cats (currently 11 indoor!) with private bed, scratcher, toys and feeder - with access controlled by microchip.
My PitPet feeders are a crucial part of that set up. I can control each cats diet. With up to six separate portion controlled meals, I minimize prevent scarf and barf. With each feeder calling its cat by name at meal time it creates a fun symphony of sounds at meal town as cats are called, come running, food drops, and doors click open. Bigger cats get bigger portions, everybody gets the best food for their personal health conditions and I can even leave home for a few days without having to worry.
Setup is simple on these devices. In almost 18 months of use I've had zero issue with reliability. The only heads up: if you have a particularly ambitious feline, the security strap may not be sufficient. One of my boys was able to flip the feeder and pull off the velcro for a feast. I've constructed a barrier wedging feeder in place to prevent that, and all of the other cats have been fine with it free standing as shipped. The internal clock is reliable. While it certainly is not able to sync with atomic clock it perfectly does its job. A 'drift' of maybe a minute over the course of several full months really is negligible. Between power adapter and AA battery backup, power outages aren't a concern, and the removable steel bowl and food reservoir make for easy cleaning.
All said and done - this is a very solid product at an incredible price. Thrilled I found it, as are my cats. If you want bells and whistles and dependance on someone else paying their bills - get an expensive soon to be brick. If you want reliability and consistency, this is it.
Doing some improvements with my cat suites, but since my youngest kittens are demanding SnapCat and OnlyPaws fame - I'll be uploading video and photos of this setup (and them) soon @kenskrewe
You'll get a kick out of how they come running when PitPet calls!

Best investment since automatic litter box!
Somehow our cat trained my husband to get up and feed him every morning at 4:30 am. After almost a year of frustration, my husband ordered this automatic feeder one morning at 4:35 am. It came the same day!It can be programmed to feed up to 6 times a day, at any time, and the quantity can be different each time. We used to just give the cat a scoop in the morning and let him graze till it was gone. But I decided to look at the recommended serving amount for my cat’s weight and chose 1 serving at 4:30am, another at 9am, and a final at 5pm. After a few days I noticed the 9am was not enough and doubled the amount. A few more days later my husband mentioned the cat starts screaming at him as he’s heaving for work as if he’s still hungry so I doubled the 4:30am amount too. Seems we found the perfect formula!It’s hilarious to see the cat come running out of nowhere at the first noise the feeder makes! There’s also a feature to feed on demand and to record a sound for the cat to know it’s time to eat. I recorded myself shaking a bottle of treats, which is what I do when I want him to come to me. It’s not very loud but evidently he can hear it just fine.

The product is easy to set up. I like how it has battery and a cord backup. The bowl is a decent size with a metal removable bowl. My dog knows the schedule at first he was a little weirded out by it but got used to it super quickly. He now waits by the feeder around the time he knows it will be feeding time
