Description

Hi all, I tried a bunch of the models here but found that they kept jaming and the food didn't come out well.  Our cats are a bit precious and won't use a paw to dig it out.   After much trial and error and a bench full of attempts but this one finally works well…!!!  

 

It keeps most of the food protected to it's fresh but easily falls down when they eat.

 

It's very efficent in terms of filament at less than 300g for the container and lid..!

 

Hopefully it works well for you, I'd welcome any suggested improvements.

Great, I increased the height to ensure the cat fits comfortably for a week's holiday in Brittany 😉

I love it! I spent a long time comparing all the food dispenser models and settled on this one: simple to print, doesn't use much filament, and is practical! I thought it was small when I took it off the printer, but it's equivalent to four bowls of kibble, so perfect 💯

Oh darn, it works for mine. I can make you one with a higher arch? I'm guess the type of food makes the difference.

Replying to @user_3491869180 :
I think my cat is just a fatty and if he can see the bottom of the bowl he freaks out. lol
