PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder with Camera for Two Cats, 1080P HD Video with Night Vision, 5G WiFi Pet Feeder with Phone APP Control, 2-Way Audio for Cat & Dog, Low Food & Motion & Sound Alerts

Bought this for our 2 kittens while out of town for a week at Christmas. It does all the things we need and is now used full-time. The programmable schedule is easy to set up and enables limitless options in terms of portions, frequency at whatever times we want. No more hungry cats waking us up at 5:30AM. We still pay a neighbor kid to check on them when gone for a few days, but the video feature does provide reassurance everything is working. You can also talk to your pets through the video, which is kinda fun.

This is an edit to my original review due to dispensed portion size. It's confusing in the app that it reads 1/12cups and I understood that to be 1 feed out of 12 cups, when I discovered, it's actually 1/12th of a cup (ie: to dispense 1 cup of food, you need to do 12/12 cup manual feeds). Still kinds of wonky, but workable. I wish the hopper had multiple slots for dumping food. The portions are sporadic in quantity. The dual bowl splitter to separate the morsels to go into each dish is a gimmick and one dish always gets more than the other (despite changing the splitter positions). Setup was easy - like SUPER EASY! I ordered a different brand and got it the nite before I ordered this one. The other one was CHEAP and it wouldn't connect after 2.5 hours of trying and married to a system tech so it wasn't 'user error', hence the reason I decided to go with 'the big rater' out there and glad I did. The video quality is SUPERB!! live stream is amazing. Downside, you can either pay for a subscription to store videos and images, or buy an SD card. This isn't disclosed until you've unpackaged it, set it up and are within the app when that page pops up. I have an SD card, and signed up for a subscription - I wasn't totally 'sure' that all video's would save on the card so played it safe.Sound quality is awesome and the nite vision is absolutely amazing. I wish the food tank was vacuum sealed like on another PetLibro model.All in All, I am super, super happy with this and it will allow me to have some peace while on my first vacation in 10 years. Husband will be home with the kitties, but I can't 'trust' him that he'll fill their bowls before he leaves for work in the morning or at nite before bed - sad really - so this will give me the ability to keep my babies fed and KNOW they'll get food! THANK YOU PETLIBRO!!! Highly recommended!!!

I purchased this PETLIBO cat feeder to replace one from a different manufacturer. The old one failed to feed when the plastic fins on the plastic rotor all broke off. I attempted to order a replacement rotor, the only part that I could find listed for that model feeder anywhere on the internet. The manufacturer was offshore and provided no contact information whatsoever. The replacement rotor didn’t fit my machine so I returned it and started my search for a different / better machine.That original feeder served me pretty well for about 2 years of continuous outdoor service in a protected location shielded from direct rain and snow. The old one had a capacity of 7 litters, but the PETLIBO is only 5 or 5-1/2 litters. As a result of this difference, I have to refill it every 5 days instead of every 7 for the old one. I wished that it held more, but that wasn’t a deal breaker for me.PETLIBO - PLEASE CONSIDER OFFERING A TALLER, HIGHER CAPACITY FOOD RESERVOIR OPTION TO FIT THIS MACHINE.My old one wasn’t WiFi enabled but the PETLIBO is. The app loaded easily on my iPhone and it works surprisingly well. I didn’t think that I’d use that feature all that much, but as it turns out after a few months in use, I do.The PETLIBO is intended for indoor use only but I’m feeding a large colony of feral cats so indoors wasn’t an option. The feeder sits exactly where my original one did, under a picnic table with an impervious top to protect it against the rain we get here in suburban Baltimore. I have it sitting on a perforated rubber pad placed on the wooden deck below the table. The rubber pad keeps it slightly elevated so that any water on the deck won’t be able to infiltrate the bottom of the feeder.I never used the AC power cord on my original feeder, opting to run that one off the 4 batteries installed as a backup power source. Without the WiFi capability, a set of batteries in that feeder surprisingly lasted between 6 and 7 months. I initially set up this PETLIBO without plugging it in to AC power as well, but WiFi use sucked down a new set of batteries over a week’s time. AC power is really needed for this bad boy, so I plugged it in.Raccoons? Yep. We got ‘em. I had inserted the old feeder into a wire mesh cage and then bungeed the assembly to the legs of my picnic table so they couldn’t tip it over, or get to the top to break into the goodies inside it. That worked perfectly.I’m using that same wire cage and bungee anchor system with the PETLIBO, but I took the top off of the wire cage so I could easily reach in and unscrew (1/4 turn) the top on the feeder to refill it. I liked this arrangement better, since I had to unbungee the old feeder/cage assembly and remove it from under the table in order for me to open the feeder for refilling. Unfortunately the damned raccoons were smart enough to quickly figure out how to unscrew the top of the PETLIBO and rob me blind! Now I put the top back on the wire cage to stop that from happening any longer. It takes me another minute to remove that wire cage top so that I can unscrew the top of the feeder, but again, I can live with that.The PETLIBO passes a larger size kibble than anything else I could find. For 2 years i had been slightly exceeding the largest kibble size permitted by the other manufacturer, I believe that was the primary reason why the plastic rotor fins broke off. The Purina Kit & Kaboodle feed that our colony really prefers didn’t feed well in that machine but the PETLIBO handles it perfectly.It’s very easy to program feeding schedules from the app. Is VERY flexible and can handle any schedule that I would ever need. It’s also very easy to change a feeding time or portion size and then change it back again tomorrow. It has a forced manual feed function where you select the portion size and then push “Feed”. Done. Instant gratification.The feeder sends “blocked outlet” messages when the feed doesn’t discharge into the 2 bowls completely. One reviewer complained about all these error messages and I would have to agree that they can be a pain. Better to know than not to know in my opinion. At our house, the raccoons usually take care of any evening plugging issues.You have the option of recording a verbal message to play when feeding and even how many times you want that message to play. The old feeder REQUIRED you to enter a voice message, even if you spoke not a word. Some people that failed to do this thought their feeder was faulty and sent them back. No such problem with the PETLIBO.
