Can I feed cat from the can instead of transferring to the dish?

One of our cats likes to lick the can, but it has sharp edges where the lid was, so we transfer meat to dishes. They also like to lick the underside of the lid and the plastic spoon we use to transfer meat to dishes. They REALLY like the gravy.

Yes, but they can't get all the little bits from around the bottom, and they tend to get food/gravy all over their face and especially their chin!

I wouldn't. There's a pull tab and the cat could cut its tongue on the can edge.

why would you want to? try adding a little bit of water to the can and swishing it around to remove as much gravy as you can. and also use your plastic spoon to scrape the underside of the lid and then leave that plastic spoon there for your kitty lick til it's heart's content!! (just my humble opinion!)

I would NOT feed directly from the can of cat food. Two reasons...it's too small a space for the cat to comfortably feed in,,,and most cans, once opened, have a SHARP edge around them on the inside!! Give the poor little kitty his or her own bowl.

this is a really deep large cat box but I am not sure more than one cat could be in there with food bowls at once so don't know if it would work for feeding.

Yes you can, just make sure you put put enough Pam onit so the food doesn't stick

I believe the answer is on the amazon web site. I have ours full of cat food in the pantry and really like it as it tools very smoothly.

Yes. We feed our cat wet food and only 1/2 cup of dry food every day for variety and teeth cleaning. The Catit feeder needs to be anchored to a solid base and the top hole needs to be covered ... we did both and you can, too. It's great exercise and our cat doesn't stuff himself at one sitting like he used to. We love it.

This question really depends on the portion size you set the feeder to distribute. We feed a single cat 1/4 cup every day (split out across three feedings). The feeder can go about 2 weeks before needing refilled. We have a small dispenser container however I seem to remember there being an option to purchase a larger container to mount to the feeder. If you go with the extra large container, I would imagine you could dish out quite a bit of food and be ok.

Absolutely! Which is usually how I do it. Very convenient using the top for cats who really don't want to come out!

Yes, the catmate is set up to handle small size cat food. We have both of them, the cat and dog one. We love having them both!!

Yes you can, the feeder will close whenever the dog tries to eat. However all of the weight and diet control capabilities for your cats would be not be activated, so this is not generally recommended.

I have three dogs that do the same thing. I found that if you put the feeder on a tray, with that "non slide" fabric glued on the bottom, that it's so much ha rder to move. a cat shouldn't be able to move it. my dogs, on the other hand, scoot it around. I have an electric cord on it and that helps a bit..... but the non-slide fabric (at WalMart or a camping store) works the best.

No, it's not low carb, so I wouldn't feed a cat with a weight problem to eat this, unless the cat is underweight or normal weight.

Yes, you can. Directions are in the manual under training a cat to use the door.

I have always just mixed about 1/4 tsp in with the canned food, in their morning meal. It is much easier and they eat it fine. Your idea seems like it would cause the cat to put up an unnecessary fuss.

Yes, but it's not as easy as getting in a regular cat box. I have the box in one room and now a pet gate across the door to that room so the cat has to hop the gate to use his box. Anything to try to keep my dogs from eating the cat poop...ewwww

I would not recommend it for feeding, my cats sometimes just dump it over to get the treats out. I suppose you could use it by portioning out how much you want them to have in a day, but they may just knock it over and make a mess. Plus, I have a few cats that won't even use it for treats so that's a problem if your cat doesn't like it and won't stick their paws in it. I would recommend just using a regular dish and measuring out portions. Try a quality food designed for weight loss.

Absolutely. We are currently running a special, so you will receive two (Maggie and Tish). They're being shipped overnight, so please have cat food on hand. They prefer canned and enjoy a large selection, so be sure to stock up!

Yes I think it can, I feed my cats small amounts spaced out throughout the day, I would say they both get feed little over a tablespoon and a half each time and it can still go down. The super feeder was originally designed to dispense fish food pellets in ponds! So it can go down pretty far depending on the pellet size and settings you have on it.
