Customer Reviews
failed after 2 meals
We got this pet feeder to feed our cat while we were out of town for 2 nights (the most we'd ever leave her by herself). When we got home we found her very hungry...because the feeder only gave her food twice! I cannot recommend this machine. It is expensive and doesn't work. We returned it and got our money back. Kitty gets lots of extra food in a dish when we leave her overnight now or she gets boarded.

Functional
The Petmate Le Bistro Portion-Control Automatic Pet Feeder, servers the purpose it was intended for, not having to get up every morning between 4:30 & 5 am to feed my cat especially on the weekends. The product does keep to the feeding time that I programmed but the amount of food that it is suppose to dispense isn't accurate. For the first several weeks the amount of food dispensed was correct but now it's like 3x times the amount even after reprogramming the Feeder. But it still serves the purpose for which it was intended and I am satisfied with my purchase.

Works great
We purchased the the feeder to stop our cat from thumping at the bedroom door at 4:15am for food. Well, the idea worked for a little while, but now she just thumps the door (after she eats) because she's lonely. The feeder was easy to program and dispenses the correct amount at the correct time.

Love this! So does our cat!
I love that this keeps the food fresh. I use it w/ Iams dry cat food and have had absolutely no problems. Plus, it's super easy to program. Good buy!

Decent, but beware if you have a smart cat!
Needed to purchase an automatic feeder for when we're away for the weekend for our cat. The feeder assembled easily, and programmed easily. I have noticed some discrepency in the amount that dispenses. Also, the cat figured out immediately that she could fit her paw up the dispenser hole and dislodge more food. Still trying to figure out if this is "extra" food, or the food that would have been dispensed if it was working properly. So far, I can only recommend this unit for short-term use, as it's not 100% reliable in my case.
UPON FURTHER REVIEW:
After working with the feeder for a week, I think we worked out the kinks. First off, when we had the feeder dispense more food, but less often, the cat stopped "fishing" for more food. If there is extra food around after a couple feedings, we just poured it back in the hopper. I'm sure most people can set up a system of number of feedings and amount of feedings which works for your pet. I'm upping my score to 4 stars!
