This is the feeder I should have bought years ago! I have two cats who both are fed different diets. One is very finicky, and the other is a chow-hound. So, bowls have to be separate. I am very happy that this feeding system exists! The cat that is finicky can eat whenever he needs to, and the chow-hound eats small meals 4x/day and also can't steal from the other cat anymore. It's a win-win for both of them, as well as for me. I don't have to rush home to make sure they're fed on time, especially when my work hours vary from day to day. Very happy with this system and hope to use it for years to come.

This completely helps us so that the cats are not disrupted in their feeding flexibility by the dog who wanted to get at their food all of the time. What a lifesaver!!!

It works great

I am 100% satisfied with this purchase. It is well worth the cost of it. I bought two feeders as I was moving my cats in with my parents and I have one cat that is a scarfer and the other four are grazers. They do what they are supposed to do and I would definitely buy another one when my husband and I get a dog.

This feeder is perfect to keep my food obsessed cat out of my grazing cat's meals! It takes the stress out of feeding time.

We've had it for about a month now. It works great. It does exactly what it says it's supposed to do. If I had to make the purchase again I would.

Great product. I have three dogs and one with a weight problem.
I put the fob on the heavy dog and it solved having to be around while the others ate. The food is always available to the two dogs and the door closes when the heavy dog approaches. Works great!

My cat has had a lot of issues stealing food and it used to cause me undue amounts of stress. With a little chip on his collar, I never have to worry about this anymore. The auto feeders are super easy to set up and incredibly high quality. If your cat is like mine and separate monitored meals times for all your pets is not a feasible option, just throw a little money at the problem and watch it go away. It's worth it.

We bought three PortionPro Rx feeders for our three cats since they are very different in their eating habits. While one likes to come and go as she eats and maintains a healthy weight, the other two would scarf down food until they were stuffed. This is the only feeder that portions their food and keeps it away from the other cats. One of our cats has recently changed to a special diet, so these feeders have been a lifesaver. Our two chubby cats have also lost some weight which was greatly needed. This has been a great investment and taken a lot of stress off of us as well.

We purchased two feeders. They are working beautifully to control our cats' portions and keep the dogs out of the cat food!

This is an awesome product that really helps to make your life easier.

Really like the feeders... stops the fat cats from over eating and helps the two cats that are prone to UTI stay on the food they are supposed to eat. We have another cat without a collar that wanders and eats a bit of whatever is available. Only concern is start them with less food than you think they eat so that the machine does not go into error mode if there is still food in tray. It can overfill tray and go into error mode. We have two cats per feeder and they share 1 1/8 cups per day. This doesn't seem like much but they are maintaining weight. One fat cat is slowly getting down to a healthier size.

I am very pleased with the design and function of the unit. It has been working flawlessly for the past two months and had made it easy to make sure our cat gets regular and measured food to maintain weight. Great product. Glad we found it.

We have 2 cats at home. One is very crazy about food and the other one is not that interested in food. We bought one feeder last year to prevent the crazy one stealing food from the other one. The feeder works great so we bought another one this year so that both of our cats are fed on schedule when we are traveling. Feeding them 6 times a day avoid vomiting due to rapid eating with empty stomach. Already recommend to several friends about this feeder.

We now have 2 of these feeders for our 2 fabulous felines ... who gained a tremendous amount of weight under the unwatchful eye of a cat/house sitter while we were on an 5-week cruise last Oct/Nov. We all suffered through various units and foods until we discovered portionproRX feeders. Our indoor cats never wore collars so it took a couple of weeks to get comfortable with the collars & tags. Once their reticence & discomfort was under control, all our lives turned around miraculously. We’ve just returned from another 4-week cruise ... units worked beautifully... cats & sitter happy!!!! We can not recommend this product highly enough. Stick with the training program... you and your pets WILL get through it!!!! One more thing ... if using multiple units, place them in separate locations.

This feeder was recommended by my vet as one of my cats was a grazer and the other would eat his food. With this system it helped the one underweight kitty gain a little weight and the other have a healthy not over weight body. The main thing was that although I am not typically a "free feeder" the one cat needed to gain some weight and eat whenever he wanted so that was the main reason I bought the unit so that at night the skinny cat could get some food. Also if you have any questions or need assistance with the feeder the company has very nice helpful people in customer service!

An absolutely amazing product with service that’s truly unmatched. There is simply no reason not to buy the portionpro rx.

For Beanie who likes to “graze” rather than eat all at once & goes from Kitty Jeckle to Kitty Hyde if he doesn’t have access to his food, portionpro rx has been a miracle. He’s now happy & loving 24/7. Mr Waggles & Kailash can no longer steal Beanie’s food. And fatty Kailash is slowly shedding her excess weight; she’s now more active & affectionate. That makes for a healthier Kitty with less visits to the vet.

Dr Hexter - part of the executive team - & his wife Kim, along with Warren in marketing & support, give new meaning to customer service. How about they literally drop everything to immediately address your needs/concerns.
Just stop hesitating and buy this fantastic product.

During the time I've owned it, approx 7 months. I've only had a few issues but customer service has been great. I hope it will continue working for many more years to come.

Our girl lost weight and she is not chubby anymore!

We love our portion pro. The only thing I don’t like is not being able to only have one feeding a day. Our older cat who uses it, never finishes both portions, so I have to remove some every day to keep it from over filling. He would be fine with 1 half cup serving a day. Maybe give that option in the future.

Thanks,

This is a good quality product; however, it is way overpriced for the value. My son and I have two cats; one likes to nibble every now and then and the other loves to break into wherever food may be and eat until he is sick.

In my opinion the cost of these feeders is outrageous and I consider it to be price gouging. I did contact the company to see if I could get a decent discount because I had to purchase two, but they wouldn't give me one. I ended up spending over $400 for two feeders so that my cats can get fed properly.
The tags are quite heavy and bulky and with the overeater cat it clunks loudly on the dish when he is eating. My little girl kitty doesn't clunk her tag when she eats but it does seem cumbersome for her to wear because she is much smaller than my other cat who can handle the extra weight.

I had my son set the feeders to stay open unless the wrong kitty comes to close to the wrong feeder and that seems to be working well.

When I first got these the noise from the motor when the dish opens would scare my little girl and she would run away and not eat. My male kitty would get startled, but once he figured out there was food there he took right to it. He likes to try to fool my little girl's dish into giving him food but has almost figured out that it will never happen.

I have an island in my kitchen and have put one on either side of the ends of it and that is working well. My little girl has become less stressed about eating now that she knows she can eat anytime she wants too without my little boy kicking her out of her dish and he is now getting down to a manageable weight so he is healthier.

If I didn't have an urgent need to purchase these and they were both nibblers, I would have gone with a different auto feeder because of the price. They are made well but not worth the cost they are charging.

The PortionPro feeder has changed my life (really!) It's wonderful to be able to have one less thing to worry about every day - my cat is on a great feeding schedule and never has to wait for me to get home late at night to eat. Plus, I have it set to divide his daily cup into four different feedings which has made him think he's eating more and doesn't act like he's starving as much. My cat is very mischievous and has put this feeder through extreme testing - has lost 2 tags within a few months and customer service is very prompt in answering my emails and always overly helpful. I've tried many other feeders that had 5 star ratings before and he figured out how to get the food to come out or break it within a week or so. We've had this feeder for over 6 months now and it works like a charm still! LOVE this machine.

I have 2 cats with completely different styles when it comes to feeding. Mooch, who was 19 pounds, will eat anything and everything all the time. Cookie, who was 14 pounds, is more of a grazer. If I fed them at the same time, there would always be food left over in Cookie's bowl which Mooch would eat unless I was standing there. We wound up buying 2 of these feeders, one for each cat. They drop food 6 times a day ( every 4 hours). The cats became accustomed to the feeders very quickly and listen for the food to drop. Small amounts every 4 hours has worked well and they have already started losing weight. We can now actually leave for a weekend and not worry about feeding the cats. I feel the price was reasonable for what these feeders do and have been very happy with them. They fill a niche particularly if you have a busy lifestyle.

working great. we love them.

I ordered the PortionPro Rx because one of my two cats became very ill. As he lost weight, the other cat became overweight by eating his food. When he was given an expensive prescription food diet, the other cat was very persistent in trying to eat it. It was stressful to monitor feeding in order to chase away my heavier kitty as my sick kitty slowly ate each meal. I had resorted to locking the healthy cat up during meals, which made me feel terrible.
Now that I have two PortionPro Rx devices, both cats can move freely at feeding time, and I am free from monitoring duty. This has made a huge difference, especially in the morning, when I am getting ready for work. My sick cat is starting to get well and his appetite is improving. It has been gratifying to slowly increase the daily amount of food he is offered on the device. I like knowing how much he has eaten, as well as the guarantee that it was he that ate the food, not his hungry friend. This amazing feeder has made a very stressful situation far less stressful for me. I believe it has also played an important role in helping my sick cat feel better, in addition to managing the weight of my heavier cat. I couldn’t be happier with the PortionPro Rx!

The tags are pretty bulky on my cats. It hangs pretty low also and so when they eat out of the feeder it bangs against it which scares them. The feeder itself does what it’s supposed to though and it’s great since they have to be on different diets

My cat, Sophie, is an overweight 3 year old FS DSH that has a food stealing problem. She is on a prescription diet and still struggles to lose weight because she is such a scrounge. I have attempted to use a different automatic feeder in the past, but she eventually caught on to the fact that she could slip her paw up into the dispenser and steal as many kibbles as she pleased. The PortionPro is a game changer, and she can no longer steal as much as kibble as she wants. She can get 1 kibble at most, but then the door shuts on her and she sits there with a defeated look. I'm happy to say that I am a very pleased cat mom/vet tech and highly recommend this product to people with pets like my Sophie.

Also, I would like to warn potential buyers that this is a pretty loud feeder when the door shuts and closes, so it can potentially scare very skittish pets, but I feel that they will eventually get used to it. Sophie was terrified at first, but then realized it gave her food so she eventually got used to the loud noises.

Furthermore, the door will open and close whenever the designated pet is near it, so it can get pretty annoying if the feeder is by a water bowl and the pet is just passing by for a drink. I suggest placing the feeder away from areas that the pet frequents (i.e. water bowl or cat tree) so you don't have to constantly hear the door open and close. Otherwise, this is a fantastic product for busy pet parents with pets that need to be fed throughout the day.

We have 3 cats and 2 of them would never stop eating. After purchasing the Portion Pro, we can at least keep them out of the skinny cats food. It’s working great so far.

This feeder does exactly what it's suppose to do! It allows one of my cats to always have access to her food without her brother constantly eating everything. Occasionally, as the male cat sits near the PortionPro RX, the door will briefly & part way (~25%) open. I discovered this is a built in safety feature to prevent an unapproved animals tag from getting trapped by the door. This is a neat feature that hadn’t even occurred to me to be a potential problem. Overall, I'm very happy with this feeder & fully recommend it to others!

We purchased two of these for our two dogs. I have been extremely impressed with the accuracy of the portions as well as the closure of the bowl from the wrong dog coming near. We have it in open mode and it closes when the other dog comes around. It's working great!

My skinny cat who prefers to free feed can finally eat normally, while the fat one is beginning to lose weight!
