These are great and worth the cost. I am trying to get one cat to lose weight and the other to maintain. The feeders make sure that each cat is eating only their food. I can’t recommend these enough.

I have two cats on two separate prescription diets. Both on portion control because both are overweight. Works like a charm!!!

Your product is very impressive. Each of my Shepard’s have learned better eating habits and have lost weight. Highly recommend.

We purchased 2 feeders for our 2 cats approximately one month ago. We could not be happier with them. One of our cats had a habit of eating his brothers food, and had put on a bit of weight. We are happy to report, the feeders with the collars, are keeping our over eater on track to getting back in shape, in fact he's already lost about two pounds. It only took them a couple days to be completely used to using there own personal feeder. Also an added bonus, they no longer wake me up at 4am begging for food 😁. So now I am getting better sleep as well. These truly are a life saver.

I don't write reviews often but this product deserves one from our family. The issue was that our 9-year old male cat has kidney issues and is on a special diet--the food we get him actually increases appetite, which is fine as he is thin. Our other kitty, a 4-year old, had gotten fat from eating too much of the kidney diet food. I tried to feed them different kibbles but it was impossible. Further, the fat cat will sit and eat a ton when the bowl is full. The old cat likes to nibble all day--but the fat cat was eating all the food. So cat feeding was stressful and there was lots of begging and trying to get one cat to eat less and one to eat more, etc.

I had seen auto feeders but I knew that the fat cat would just push the old cat out of the way and eat his food. So that this system closes the feeding dish when the wrong cat approaches it is genius. It works perfectly for us and we've had it for a few months.

This is what we did--we bought two feeders, put one in kitchen and one in dining room and put them both on the Open bowl mode. So each cat can eat out of his/her bowl whenever they please. But, if fat cat goes to eat old cat's food, the dish closes. We were worried that the 10 seconds to close time would mean fat cat could eat a good amount but it happens when the wrong cat is within a few feet of the feeder so that she doesn't even get a chance before the lid closes. Putting the feeders far away from each other and on Open mode were the tricks for us. We have no more begging for food, they don't paw at our faces at 5 am for feedings, and they are each getting their separate kibble--Kidney rX and weightloss. We never have to feed them or worry about it. The only small issue we've had is that our older cat spends a lot of time at his water bowl and we had his collar too loose so the chip thing stopped working. We ordered another one and tightened his collar and it's fine now. Yes, they are expensive, but for our family they are worth their weight in ...

While skeptical at first, I’m sold! I have two obese cats that spend their whole day trying to find and steal food. Three cats need diet food and two need GI sensitive. It took about two weeks to acclimate everyone to new Portion Pro feeders and locations, but everyone is more peaceful and starting to shed some weight where needed. Buying five feeders was a huge investment I kept putting off, but am now glad I made the jump. Husband is happy to not be pestered an hour before feeding time every morning.

First thing - follow the directions on how to get your animals used to the feeders. We did not and that caused no small amount of difficulty for the first 3-4 days. But, they have all gotten used to them and now run to the feeders when they go off instead of running in terror from the sound. The dog no longer can eat the cat food and the one cat can no longer pig out and eat both cats’ food. Hopefully, we will be able to have the one cat lose some weight now. There was no real hope of that before. We also were able to go away for a few days and just had someone come by the house once a day to check on everybody. It was nice to know they would continue to get fed properly. I believe we will make back the cost of the feeders with lower vet bills as our one cat gets healthier.

I had to buy three of these things. My new kitten had some issues with free feeding and so did my other two cats because the new guy ate most of their food. Now fat kitty boy is getting a waste and my other two can eat when they want. I have five animals and I set my feeders up so that I have two cats on one, fat kitty on his own and two small dogs on another (fat kitty boy had no qualms about eating dog food if that's all that was available). After some getting used to the feeders, everyone is very happy and no one feels cheated. Would recommend for any multi-cat/multi-pet households. The price is worth it.

The PortionPro does exactly what it's made for! My cat was able to acclimate to it easily. The tag is larger than I was expecting, but my cat doesn't seem to mind it. If you have an animal that requires a special diet, and especially if you have other animals that try to eat it's food, definitely buy this feeder!

We have 2 beagles. One is an elderly male and has been free range eating without any issues since he was a puppy.
The other is a younger female that we rescued. She had a hard life and will eat any food if she can catch it.
No mater how much food was given to both dogs she would eat it. Our older male was actually losing too much weight and the female had the shape of a watermelon.
We tried separating them and feeding them at scheduled times but this upset the male and he stopped eating altogether and lost even more weight.
I then did some online searching and found the PortionPro feeders.
These solved both issues. I purchased 2 feeders. One for our male can free range again and the other for our female to keep her from over eating. I run the males in open mode so he would not be discouraged from going to his bowl whenever he wanted. The radio tags keeps the female from stealing his food and only eating her proper amount
Thanks to the PortionPro feeders both of our dogs are getting back to a proper weight

I have three cats one is on a very special diet for allergies. He has been waking me up at 4 a.m. everyday for the past 5 years to eat. After 3 days of having these feeders all of my cats are eating on their own. For the first time in 5 years I'm getting a full night's sleep and it is because of these feeders!!! And my cats are healthier from eating 6 times a day. I love these feeders. I would recommend them to any pet owner.

We bought 2 portion pros, one for each of our cats. Gremlin is a food hog, and Chickpea wasn't getting enough. Now Gremlin gets only what he's supposed to and Chickpea gets what he needs. Gremlin is the only one who has to wear the collar. We love it.

I don’t typically take the time to write reviews, however, this portionpro feeder deserves praise. I have 2 kittens and one is special needs and doesn’t know when to stop eating. He was eating all of his brother’s food which was not only causing weight gain and constipation/stomach issues but also food aggression from his hungry brother. I had been brainstorming how to feed them separately while still using an automatic feeder and came across the portionpro.
I sat there reading every review, hesitating on the price, so I’m going to save you some screen time—yes, it’s worth it.
It’s easy to step up, it’s clearly made well and is high quality, and it does exactly what it’s intended for—each kitten now has access to only their food and they are both much healthier and happier now! The door that opens and closes over the bowl is noisier than I’d like but that’s really it for negatives.
Amazing product.

We got a new puppy and one of our other dogs is very allergic to chicken, so we needed a way to keep him from eating the puppy’s kibble. These feeders have been perfect and the dogs learned how to use them very quickly. Highly recommend!!

We recently purchased the Portion Pro and I just had to come leave a review because we are so happy with it! We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. Our dogs don’t bother each other’s food, but they constantly try to eat the cat food. Our cats share their food fine so we only purchased one portion pro feeder. We have it set to open mode so the door stays open unless one of the dogs walk up to the bowl. This setting has been working out perfectly! In fact, after the dogs realized the door would close on them a few times they haven’t even walked near the feeder since! This has been a great solution for us.

Some things to note, the feeder comes with 1 tag and suggests that all pets in the home wear a tag...because of this, we purchased 3 extra tags. However, because the bowl has the open mode option, only our dogs, the denied pets, wear tags. Our cats don’t like collars so this works for us, but now we have 2 extra tags we don’t need. I wish the description would have mentioned that open mode was an option. Technically, unless you will be using multiple feeders, the allowed pet(s) don’t need tags. Additionally, I saw several reviews mention that the tags are bulky. While they are a bit thick, they aren’t too heavy in my opinion. I have a 6 pound dachshund and an 80 pound Goldendoodle and both of them wear the tags just fine. I do believe that if my cats had to wear the tag they wouldn’t like it though. Overall, it’s been a wonderful purchase and I would definitely recommend it to multi pet homes.

So perfect we bought a second one. The cats can only eat from their assigned bowls - the greedy one can't steal and the grazer know her food is always there.

Works so well
I have one cat that is very skinny and had to be locked in a separate room for hours to get him to eat enough and he hated it. Now he can eat when ever he wants to and does not have to worry about the other two cats bullying him and stealing his food. My other cats still have not figured out why they can't eat his food and continue to try but have not figured out a way to get to it yet.

I have three cats, one of whom is a glutton. He'll eat his food from his feeder and then the others' food until he gets sick! I've tried 4 other solutions, but PortionPro's active RFID prevents him from getting more than his share. It's actually humorous to watch his quizzical expression when the PortionPro's door closes before he can get to the food. He hasn't given up yet (it's only been two weeks, and he's stubborn), but I can tell he's slowly getting tired of the frustration. Thanks, PortionPro!

I have a puppy who refuses to eat a meal in one go. He insists on grazing or will not eat enough to maintain his weight. But I also have another hungry dog and a scavenging cat who made grazing impossible without us standing watch over the bowl at all times. I searched high and low for a reasonable solution and here it is! Finally! Now everyone (except the scavengers) is happy! We also gave in and bought a couple of extra tags for when friends’ dogs come visit. We had a day when we thought our pup was particularly hungry until we realized he was letting his friend help herself to his food...

Really beautiful and useful. I recommend this to your pets!

No more dog getting into the pricey prescription cat food. At All. Ever. The lid just closes when he walks by. Leaving the food for the cat when the cat wants it. ALSO, I don't have to worry about refilling daily. Takes the food management for the cat out of my day. Cat knows he gets food regularly, so less gorging. I'm sad I didn't find this device earlier. Worth every penny.

We have three cats, one of which hogs food from the others. We've tried a bunch of different tricks, but nothing has worked until we got our PortionPro. We have it set to Open, and tagged Greedy with an unregistered tag. He's quite confused and frustrated that the others can eat but he can't!
It didn't take more than 15 minutes for the other cats to get used to the machine (I suppose because we've changed up their eating habits so many times recently).
Thanks for such a great product!

We love this product! It’s made feeding time a breeze.

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.
