NOTES:
Bergan manufacturer is transitioning to a new color on this feeder so you might get the grey-blue color. This feeder is great to use when traveling, but it is not suitable for cats with an allergy to plastic. There is a similar pet feeder you can use when traveling, it has a food storage and it’s a feeding station all in one. The Iris elevated pet feeder features stainless steel bowls, ideal for a cat with an allergy to plastic. You can see a review of this unit here.
CONCLUSION
Good pet feeder that works as advertised. It allows you to store food and feed your pet all in one. Very good unit to travel with and to use outdoors or indoors. Here are some points to consider about this feeder:
- As any gravity pet feeder, this unit might get stuck with certain types of kibbles which causes the feeder not to auto-fill the bowl.
- You can control how much the food bowl gets filled by twisting the bowl more or less but you cannot control how much your pet eats.
This is an excellent feeder to take for traveling because it works as a food container and food bowl at the same time. Also, it keeps the food fresh and clean. For all these reasons:
√ I recommend Bergan Pet Feeder Travel:
- For cats and small dogs
- For cats that don’t have obsession with food
- For traveling
x I don’t recommend this feeder:
- For cats obsessed with food or on a diet
- To be used with big or triangled shaped kibbles
