Does this dispense food on a daily basis when set for more than one feeding?

If it works properly. The timer is rubbish, cheap Chinese crap. I have tested mine over 2 weeks, (luckily with me at home!) and it usually works for one or two meals then stops (not due to feeder 'error', it just stops...) and the timer itself loses up to 5 minutes a day. I would stay away from this brand if I were you.

Hi Stacy, yes, it can dispense up to three times per day and feeds daily. It just seems to be flimsy (especially the plastic container) and easily knocked over and opened by larger dog...good luck, Julie

multiple times per day; you can set it to revolve once or twice per feeding time; each revolution will empty food into the aquarium.

Depending on the amount of food you dispense with each feeding,yes. The drum probably holds about 1/3 of a cup of food. The battery will last more than a month. I am not sure if the amount of food dispensed will change from day one to day 30.

I believe you can program it to feed 3 times a day. We have it set for twice a day. You only have I program it once unless you want to change it. It may have to be programmed again when the batteries die. I don't know about that yet.

it can be set for two modes to feed a certain amount throughout the day or it could be set for one time a day at a certain time or up to three times a day at the times of your choosing. Be forewarned this item is very noisy when it runs. Also make sure you use premium alkaline batteries. It is very flexible in it's programming you can set it to feed A large amount in the morning or a small amount in the middle of the day and a large amount at night or any combination thereof. Personally I will give this unit three out of four stars. Only two things I wish it had A quieter mechanism and a AC power adapter using the batteries as a backup. it can be set for two modes to feed a certain amount throughout the day or it could be set for one time a day at a certain time or up to three times a day at the times of your choosing.

The feeder feeds on clock time, not days of the month. It will continue until batteries deplete. Mine has been dispensing food for 2 months and batteries still ok.

It dispenses the same amount each time. Of course you can reset the amount when you want to, but that's the setting that will be in effect until you change it again.

No. It is for dispensing at a selected time. It can be programed to dispense up to 4 times daily. It cannot dispense randomly.

The Cat Mate C10 will only dispense once a day, unless you refill and reset it. For four feedings a day, this product will not work. I set mine at night for one early morning feeding and it is great for that.

Yes, you can adjust the amount of food you dispense. I like this one as it holds more food and easy to load the food.

It has to dispense the same amount unless you manually change the settings. I would be remiss however unless I told you about how I have recently learned how bad kibble is for cats. I thought I was feeding my cat well with high end kibble and I was so wrong. Changed to feeding canned food two or three times a day and her health improved dramatically. Just trying to get the word out.

You set your feed times up to 6 a day. You can not set individual days of the week. So to answer your question you can only set up to 6 feeding a day or as little as 1 a day

Yes, it does, however you need to feed them through pretty much one at a time and it is best to make sure they are wet.

It is adjustable as to how much it feeds daily each time. So the answer would be how much you feed your pet a day. My problem was it was not reliable, so if you are counting on this feeding your pets be sure you or someone is around to make sure they are being fed daily. Neither one of mine were reliable. I honestly would not feel comfortable relying on this to feed my pets. One I don't use at all anymore and the other one my husband took apart and turned it into a free feeder works with just gravity flow and maybe a shake now and then.

I programed my feeder to feed 3 times per day. It will Stay Programed that way UNLESS I change the settings. You DO NOT have to reset daily. Hopes this answers your question.

For a 29 gallon tank I bought 2 of these and have one feed in the morning and one in the evening. That way if something happens to one of them the fish will at least get fed once per day. I take a 2-3 week trip every year and never had a problem with this feeder. Most fish can survive a week or two without food, the bigger threat to them is over feeding. Better to feed smaller amounts twice per day. I also put a corner filter in the tank in addition to the external filter when I'm away for more than a week. It adds aeration should something happen to clog the main filter.
