Our review
The PETLIBRO automatic feeder is the #1 selling automatic cat feeder on Amazon, and the WiFi connectivity is what sets it apart. Schedule up to 10 meals per day with 1-48 portions per meal (each 1/12 cup), all controlled from the PETLIBRO app on your phone. You can check feeding records, adjust schedules, and get notifications — from anywhere with an internet connection.
The personal meal call feature is a lovely touch: record up to 10 custom voice messages (10 seconds each) that play when food is dispensed. Your cat hears YOUR voice calling them to eat, even when you are not home. The 5L tank holds enough food for days, with a built-in desiccant bag and twist-lock lid keeping kibble fresh. The stainless steel bowl prevents chin acne.
Smart notifications alert you when food is low, jammed, or the battery is running out. An infrared sensor monitors the food outlet and stops dispensing if blocked. Dual power: mains + battery backup.
The honest downsides: 10% one-star reviews — the main complaints are WiFi disconnections and app reliability. Some users report the app going down, making remote monitoring impossible (the feeder still dispenses on schedule). The speaker quality for meal calls is low. And it only works with dry kibble (2-15mm diameter). But for reliable, scheduled dry food dispensing with phone control, this is the market leader.
