How to Choose a Smart Feeder Suitable for Different Pets?

To choose a smart feeder, first determine the capacity and food-dispensing method based on your pet’s species, size, food type, feeding habits, usage scenario, and budget. Then, evaluate features like sealing/cleaning performance, anti-jamming function, power redundancy, and APP experience. Finally, make a purchase by considering brand reputation and after-sales service. As PUREATIC, have own overseas warehouse, which offer warranty.

Quick Selection Table

Pet Automatic Feeder Selection GuideI. Three Core Selection StepsDetermine the Capacity: Calculate based on daily food intake × number of feedings per day × number of days away. Follow the principle of "it’s better to be larger than needed" but avoid long-term food storage (to prevent spoilage). For small pets, a 3–5L capacity is recommended; for large dogs, a capacity of ≥5L is recommended.2. Determine the Food Dispensing Method: For precise portion control, prioritize screw-type or dial-type dispensers. For no strict precision requirements or large food portions, gravity-fed dispensers are suitable. Regardless of the type, prioritize models with anti-clogging design and easy residual cleaning functions.3. Determine the Food Type: Dry food is the most versatile (works with most feeders).For mixed freeze-dried food or large food pellets, choose models with wide openings and anti-clogging features. For wet food/canned food, dedicated or semi-automatic feeders are required (focus on easy cleaning).II. Key Functions & Pitfalls to Avoid Sealing & Moisture Resistance: Look for models with sealing gaskets and desiccant compartments to slow down food spoilage and maintain palatability.• Cleanliness & Material ◦ Opt for food-grade plastic or 304 stainless steel (safe for pets).◦ Choose feeders that are fully detachable with few dead corners (easy to clean).◦ Stainless steel food bowls are more durable and easier to clean.• Stability & Anti-Tipping: Select models with non-slip bases or weighted bottoms to keep the feeder stable, avoiding food waste or accidental ingestion of the feeder parts.• Power Supply & Reliability: Prioritize dual power options (AC power + battery backup) to prevent feeding interruptions due to power outages.
