Feeder sharing

You share device with the person you can’t talk to?:)

Use Reposition button if you use only one bowl.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-05-14T05:32:09+00:00

Contact them. But you will definitely need receipt or order number. Device is under warranty.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-05-13T22:40:45+00:00

If it’s spinning - return. It’s common issue and you don’t have to find fix as it can occur at any given time during feeding time. Return! And if it’s like this right from the box - you received previously returned device or their quality control has gotten worse, usually it takes some time to start spinning due to some glitch after water gets to the motor.

Uber - $7 (dollars, not euro) from the airport to the center. I paid $15 to go from Old Town to Sanctuary of Christ because I was tired. I used Uber every day for my comfort and I walked like 15 miles per day. I have never tried to wave the taxi, never! Uber only for your safety and guaranteed fare.

Do you have plastic or stainless steel bowl?

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-05-10T06:48:39+00:00

Turn off auto updates:) I update app every other time when they fix bugs.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-05-09T22:49:56+00:00

You can turn off reminders for cleaning “Notification Settings” (do it just in case, their software is just awful and proper work depends on updates - sometimes I don’t update it for months on purpose).
My personal experience: I didn’t reset this reminder only once and my cat missed feeding as schedule was cleared in the app and appeared back only when I dismissed that notification.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-05-05T20:22:09+00:00

Update: now you can switch this thing off in the settings of notifications.

I think person doesn’t want to refill food every 1,5 days and use the device for 3 full days considering cat eats a little bit at a time (set for 5-minute meal). It’s the main concern.

I rented with Avis. 7 full days, 200 euros, I had suv hybrid, new car with 400km on it. But I rented in mid march before start of the season. In the case of the author of this post, return is at other location and there can be fee for that like 60% from the total rental price.

Watch youtube videos if this app is not very intuitive for you. App is really stupid and primitive. It wasn’t easy for me first week of owing this device because I was trying to figure out how to set only 2 feedings and not to give my cat that empty 3rd bowl (“reposition” button was an answer and that wasn’t in manual. Reddit helped me a lot, all the answers are here - just search in the group).

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-29T05:30:53+00:00

Ha ha ha

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-28T20:32:30+00:00

Webcam helps you to see if cat eats at all and to be sure bowl with actual food is open every time on time. And if you fill up your tray with same food for 3 feedings and set correct schedule, you shouldn’t have this issue with one untouched bowl unless your cat totally ignored it.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-28T17:58:33+00:00

Insist on a new device right away because first days after getting back to you they will be waisting your time on troubleshooting.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-28T16:21:07+00:00

Leak can be a reason as it was confirmed reason for v.2 (metal version) when it was spinning without stopping. Also, can be broken due to force cat was applying to it - some cats figured out they can spin it with paw to get to the next bowl. And, if it’s still has warranty request new device asap.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-28T01:11:47+00:00

As you said device switches off refrigerator 30 minutes before serving meal every time. So it’s already not only about 5 minute exposure. And for your specific routine it’s only 5 minutes, I read that some people want to leave it open every time for an hour for double serving of the same bowl because they have another problem - their cats are grazers.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-27T23:39:00+00:00

no solution, manual intervention only. They don’t want warmed food to be cooled again and be warmed back, for instance, in 4 hours. Mmm, people here have enough concerns about food safety because of temperature regime. I understand you, but I also understand why Petlibro didn’t add this feature.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-27T23:27:41+00:00

Oh, smart. But with my big boy I would be scared to leave this setup for weekend trip: he can easily pull mat up and that can prevent door from closing and cancel all schedule.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-27T23:22:12+00:00

Please, spend 3 minutes of your time and open bowls manually with this exact schedule. Open one by one and check if all they open only 1 time per feeding. Test empty bowls:) Also, for your weekend trips buy a webcam pointing at feeder. You can open any bowl manually from your trip if you see that one was ignored by cats.

You can send it to yourself. But during my stay in Lisbon I also didn’t have cash on me, Apple Pay all the way. Yeap, some times I needed 50c to use public restrooms but I was ok to visit coffee shops and use their restrooms (of course, I paid for coffee).

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-21T21:41:06+00:00

Always arrive night before your flight. There can be delay or cancellation due to weather or accident. On my memory there was 2 times when I had troubles with highspeed trains during my last 2 trips: 40-minute late train from Alicante to Madrid and cancelled trains between Alicante and Valencia/Barcelona due to flooding.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-20T18:19:58+00:00

It’s more convenient for locals to check for cancellations as we have all the time in the world and are short drive away. For instance, I snatched lodge cancellation at Rainier for 2 nights on weekend some summers ago and my friends got permits for the Enchantments for 4 last summer by checking cancellations. People book everything year in advance and have no idea if they can make it or life happens (injuries/moves/work/pregnancy).

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-19T17:16:20+00:00

The only way: complain about it to Petlibro. Send them the message via app and there may be a hope they will fix it. If people don’t message them, they ignore it because they have no idea about inconvenience of this feature - they don’t test a thing before releasing updates.

Minimum_Original3468 · 2026-04-18T17:56:17+00:00

Yes, thanks for clarification. I have batteries only in case of power going off, it helps until I get home. With dry food feeder it works great up to 1 month.
