Here’s how the three feeders fit
No feeder can promise perfect exclusion.
Placement, pet behaviour and another pet standing nearby can affect access. Zoogrr has not physically tested these products.
RFID does not automatically mean “reads implanted microchips”
Identification
An implanted microchip is under the skin. A proprietary RFID tag hangs from a collar. A feeder may support one, both, or neither. Read the plain-English guide.
Feeder job
A scheduled dispenser releases portions at set times. A selective-access bowl opens for a recognised pet. These solve different problems.
Food format
Hopper dispensers are generally for kibble. Covered bowls can hold wet or dry food but do not automatically dispense timed portions.
Evidence & freshness

Product truth
