Can this be used with wet cat food?

The tubes are too small for any kitty to get his or her face in them, they use their paws to pull the food out. So if you want a kitty with wet food on his paws and legs, well, that's up to you. I would suggest cleaning it after every use if you use wet food.

I wouldn't suggest it. It would probably be quite messy. I only feed my cats wet food, too. But there are a few brands of healthy treats that would work in this feeder.

My cats will not eat this by itself. I give them a 1/4 teaspoon in their wet food. They get about two tablespoons of wet food. I'm not sure how it mixes with dry food. Is having separate bowls an option for wet food?

No, it wouldn't work for wet food. It would be hard to get in, and I don't think the cat(s) could get it out. The bowl is meant to have them stick their paws in to pull food out. :-) Hope that helps.

Absolutely! I am the inventor and formulated the product for all carnivores! It says "dogs, cats, and ferrets" on the package. We have had a lot if success stories from people using this for cats. Now as an animal nutritionist for over 20 years, I will honestly say that ANY product will have a bigger challenge with cats than dogs, because....they're cats! ;-} But seriously, it can be mixed in both dry and wet cat food, but in either case I recommend adding warm water to bring out the flavor. Of course you will need less water if adding to wet food. I hope this helps! We welcome all inquiries at info@clearconsciencepet.com Best regards, Anthony Bennie, Founder and President Absolutely!

Their COSEQUIN product says moisten the dry food (water) and sprinkle the capsule over it. On wet food, it already sticks / mixes easily. On dry food, your cat may not consume all of it unless it licks it up!

I have always mixed it with wet food. Flax seed needs to be refrigerated as soon as the bag is opened, so a rancid batch might be unappealing to a cat for a good reason. Just a thought.

I don't see why not. You might have a hard time getting it into the opening though... If it us just loose cat poop (not in a baggie it something).

It should work. Just make sure the unit is secured so the cat cannot topple the unit. You'll also have to program it to deliver the amount of food you want at each feeding. Also, try to keep the unit in a dry area, my unit was pushed in my pond by a raccoon and was inoperable after that.

The only way would be not to put the ice pack in the bottom of the feeder, if you don't live in a warm climate it would probably be ok for a few hours. Or depending on how long the food will sit in there, time it so by the time your cat eats it the refrigerated food would return to room temperature. I try to keep the food cool, I'm afraid of food poisoning for the cat if the food sits out warm too long.

It will hold about 15 oz cat food (3 cans 5.5 oz) wet food. Do not know exactly dry food. It should be about 2 cups.

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.

No def not. Very fragile and tempremental.Although a good idea to find your cat, this product actually is bad, and I would not reccomend it.

That's probably not a good idea, since the wet food would not be refrigerated or sealed.

I would not recommend it. The food does not fall into the bowl. My cats aren't trained to use their paws to pull more food down so the job is left for me. Very poor design.

I have used this bowl for the past few winters for our 2 outdoor cats but I only use it for its intended purpose, water. Our temps in northern Michigan often get 10 below zero or more during the cold days of January. I would see no problem if you use dry cat food BUT canned food may prove to be problematic; I do think the food would freeze. Hope this helps, if not please be a bit more specific on what type of food you plan to use.

Sorry, but have only used it for dried cat food and for that it wokrs amazingly well. There is an adjustment for the "volume" of food, and what it does is open a "flap" wider so that more food can drop at the same time, i.e., opens wider the drop area. That "might" work for you, but truly don't know.

No. The opening is tight to keep the odor in-you have to squeeze the diaper through the opening. I don't think you can use it in this manner for the cat litter.
