My cat Beast is a giant wimp and runs from most things that make noise, but it only ended up taking her about 2 days of the training process to learn how to use the feeder. Training process?!? What training process? Some cats don’t require the training process at all, but some are a little bit skittish because the feeder makes a little bit of noise when it opens and closes. Once the microchip ID has been learned you can very easily start the training process for your cat. How Do You Train Your Cat To Use the Feeder? If you want to add additional cats you can just go through the same process again with another cat, up to 32 cats. Only that cat can open the feeder until/unless you add another. Now every time that cat comes back to the feeder it will pop open and if they step away it will close back up. When your cat comes to the feeder and eats from it the feeder will ‘learn’ the microchip ID and log it to memory for all time, even if the batteries get pulled out. Essentially you push this button and then put food in the feeder. There’s a small button on the back of the feeder that let’s you quickly ‘Add’ a cat to the feeder (see the cat with the + sign). So How Does the Feeder Solve the Problem? Beast would barely eat anything this way because we’d have to pick up her food when we let her out so Lexi wouldn’t eat it. We couldn’t just put them in separate rooms for 30 minutes to eat and then let them go free the rest of the day. She stops in for a few crunches, walks away, stops back in an hour later, walks away. Not only did this cause her to quickly gain weight, over two pounds in about six months, it also caused our other cat Beast to get far less food because Lexi kept eating it all!īeast on the other hand exacerbated the issue because Beast is a grazer, she eats a bunch of micro meals through out the day. Lexi is super food motivated and acts like a Hoover when food gets set down. In my house we have two cats, Lexi and Beast. There are a couple of reasons you might want this, but the primary reason is to control which pets can get to which food so you can easily manage the amount they eat on a daily basis. I thought to myself ‘What would you ever need something like that for?’ and that ‘Only people who spoil their pets beyond belief would get something like this.’ Apparently I was wrong on the latter and I quickly realized why I might need it. The first time I saw this online I had just gotten my first cat Beast. Note that the feeder can hold up to 32 microchip IDs at the same time, so even if you have a boatload of cats you should still be able to grant all of them access to a single feeder if that is your desire. When that cat steps away the feeder will close up again blocking access to other pets. Any cat that has a microchip can be ‘keyed’ to the feeder and then when that cat gets nearby the feeder it will pop open to allow them access.
