Overview
An automatic cat feeder from PawsPik that reads an existing ISO microchip or an included RFID tag before releasing food, aimed at multi-pet homes where one animal eats another's portion. The hopper holds 16 cups and connects to an app for scheduling.
Closed mode restricts access to the registered pet only, while Open mode allows any pet to feed, so the household decides how strict the gating is. The app supports up to 10 scheduled meals a day with set portion sizes, and a backup battery keeps feeding going through a power outage.

Who it's for
Multi-cat or multi-pet households that need to stop one animal from stealing another's food, or anyone wanting portion control tied to a specific pet.
