First off, this thing is great. If you think it might be what you need and it lines up with what you're trying to accomplish for your pet's eating habits, it's not going to be a bad decision.

Anyway, I got one because I have two cats with very different food drives. They both like to eat, but one (cat A) is OBSESSED with food and the other (cat B) is fine with hanging back. This led to Cat A being overweight and Cat B slowly losing weight because Cat A was eating all the food before Cat B had a real chance.

So, I bought one feeder (no extra tags) and disallowed Cat A from it, so now Cat B can have food security. Cat B can eat from the feeder as she pleases, and I just feed Cat A in her regular non-feeder food bowl. So far, my cats have adjusted just fine, Cat A seems a little less chunky than usual, and Cat B is already starting to feel less bony!

All in all, if my situation was anything like yours is now, this product can serve as a great solution.

I have two feeders with one overweight cat and one self- regulator that has to graze all day. I keep a tag on one cat and it allows access to his feeder while closing the other feeder if he gets too close. He has already started to lose weight!

This product has really changed our daily lives at my house. Previously, one of my cats would yell at me every morning and evening around his feeding times. Hes a punk! We got this feeder and not only does it hold SO MUCH food, my cat finally stopped harassing me. I totally recommend!

This is such a convenient dog feeder! No more reminding the kids constantly to feed the dog - this takes care of it for us and regulates her food (something kids are NOT good at!

I have two cats that I fed 4 times a day equalling 1/2 cup of food. They have never gotten along and are territorial over the upstairs and downstairs of the house and are both food driven. One has severe anxiety, the other is overweight, and both can be very aggressive with each other. I got these feeders 5 days ago. The cat with anxiety needed 2 days to adjust to the collar and the sound of the food bowl. Day 2, I decided to switch the mode for her to leave the door open so she didnt freak out so much about the noise of the door opening and closing. It made a huge difference in calming her about the noise. She used to step back when the other cat would come eat her food and in less than 5 days she had calmed down from the noise realizing that the door closes when the other cat comes and is calmer knowing the food is still there. Once she realized the other cat can not touch her food her anxiety disappeared about the noise from the door opening and closing and both cats are better about being together on each level of the house. It seems much anxiety was created around food and I feel as though I now have two new cats because they are acting so different towards each other. I have not been woken up by either cat for a feeding all week. Another blessing! Now the cat that is overweight is getting the exact measure of food she needs and there is no stress over who fed the cats, which one got the most or least food, and if they were over fed. This is one of the best investments I have ever made for my girls and myself!

We have 3 cats, 2 dogs and 5 humans in our house. With sports schedules, work and just life we struggle to Do more than free feed our animals. One of our cats has gotten extremely fat so we were forced to consider alternatives. Not only is she losing weight but we no longer have to worry about fitting feeding times with measured portions for our 5 animals. It took some time to get our cats used to the feeders but now that they’re on board, I can’t imagine feeding them any other way. We have one feeder for the fat cat (said with affection) and another for the other 2 cats.

This is absolutely amazing as it keeps my “fluffier” cat out of my other cat’s bowl. This is exactly what I needed and now I can’t wait to get a second feeder so my bigger cat is getting the correct portions with confidence!

Our dog was having issues with territorial boundaries. He would always feel he needed to guard his food. Now he is way more relaxed because he’s the only one that can access his food now. Thank you so much for such a great invention!

I have greatly enjoyed my two Portion Pro Rx's for my cats. One eats adult cat food while the other one eats kitten food, and these feeders making meal time so much easier. Even though my adult cat still likes to try and sneak the kitten food, both of them quickly learned which feeder was theirs. I highly recommend this product for multi-cat households!

This has literally saved my life! The cats were waking me at all hours to eat. Now they find me for petting not feeding! So easy to set up too.

These are great! I got one for my ill thin cat that needed to eat small frequent meals but my other cats were eating all of their food. I ended up getting one for my other cat that used to pester me to feed him in the morning. Once he no longer had to rely on me to get out of bed to feed him, we both like each other much more!

The summer sale allowed us to get 4 of these. One of our cats is still a baby, so she won't be using hers yet. The other cats took only 1-2 days to get use to the feeding system. We have no aggression from our "fat" cat anymore in stealing others food. These really are the sturdiest and most well thought out food bowls and we're really happy to have them. Worth the money absolutely!

We have 3 cats, one of whom is a glutton. We set 2 feeders up so she has her own and the other 2 can graze as they wish and we only use one chip. One feeder is open all of the time and closes when the glutton comes near and the other feeder is closed all of the time and opens when the glutton wants to eat. All of our cats are grazers and we were constantly having to watch them eat and hide their food. We have busy schedules so feeding times were never the same. These feeders are a life saver!

It works great for my two cats. It allows one to free feed and keeps the other from stealing her food. The company has great support as well for questions or any issues that arise.

Worth every penny! I have 3 cats with one obsessed with food. He is fed separately by a different feeder. The Portion Pro allows me to keep food out and available at all times for my other 2 cats. If my food obsessed cat gets near the Portion Pro the door closes. He has learned he can’t get the other twos food but will still try occasionally. This has also lessened the stress in all 3 cats.

We bought the PortionPro to limit the intake of our overweight cat. She was able to lose about 3lbs. Then we purchased a second PortionPro to dispense food for our other cat, especially helpful when we're out of town. It's worked out really well. Kudos to the inventor!!

Working out great. We have 3 cats that can free feed and one who must eat wet food meals. We put the collar on the one who cannot have dry food and it is working!! Thank you!

This allows our cats to have flexibility to eat throughout the day. Our dog has adjusted quickly and it has been great!!!

We have 3 cats and a dog. We have been fighting to keep our dog from eating the cats food since the day we got home 2 years ago. We went as far as buying a big container and cutting a small hole in it that only the cats could get through and having their food bowl inside of it and found the dog with his head stuck because he was still eating their food. We bought 2 of these feeders. One for our fat cat so we could finally monitor her food intake and one for the other 2 cats. As soon as the dog goes anywhere near their food the door closes. And we have been able to keep the fat cat from eating all of the food before everyone else gets a chance. Everyone adjusted fairly quickly to the new feeders and the added weight to their collars. In less than 2 weeks everyone was eating normally and we love our new feeders. They were super easy to set up and just as simple to adjust as the cats eating habits change.

We have one cat that needs to graze and another that will eat everything in sight. We put one tag on the cat that over eats and now the other can enjoy when he wants since we leave it in open mode. This is the best machine ever! I wish it was Wifi enabled so we could see how feedings are going while we are away, but overall I cannot complain. Now we can leave for a day or two and not worry. The “hungry” cat has his own dispenser from another company that doesn’t even compare, so we are ordering another one of these! Well worth the investment!

This pet feeder is so awesome. We have 2 cats who are on prescription diets. Now we don't have to worry about who is eating who's food. We love them so much that we want to get 2 more for our dog and other cats. Highly recommend for multiple pets! It is a little loud when the door opens, so make sure you don't put in your bedroom while trying to sleep.

I have two pets on special diets (one shiba and one cat), and two who are picky/grazer eaters. Everyone has their own machine. The two who graze are on an open feeder that closes when the other two approach. The shiba and cat are on their own machines so they can eat as they need for their diets and feeding times. Food aggression between the cats is way down. There is a better appreciating for "treat time" than just a mad scramble for food. It's been lovely!

My last programmable feeder did not have specifics for the amount of food dropped & it only let you program 3 meals in - no more and no less. The feeding times needed to be manually set and it was overfeeding him by FAR. If I was home when it dropped food, I would legitimately go to the feeder to remove ~half of the food. It was super stressful. This feeder allows you to go as high as 6 feedings a day, automatically knows how much food to drop each round so it doesn’t exceed the quantity that you have chosen. This feeder is super awesome & it was expensive, but so worth it!

Love this product. Easy to follow instructions and took no time to put it together. I have two cats and our 1 can't have solid food. So this worked out great...worth the money

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.
