Replacement parts
Replacements parts for the auto feeder arrived on time and fit perfectly.
These parts were needed as rats/squirrels chewed up the bottom of the hopper, dispensing spout and lid.
Maybe in the future can you make these parts out of something stronger that they can’t chew through?

The two-compartment feeding unit is simple and effective. The trays are removable for washing, and the freezer pack keeps wet food fresh. With a 48 hour timer (running from a single AA battery, which of course can be removed if only using the unit occasionally), we were able to have food for our cat timed to be available over our short weekend trip.

Fantastic service!
It was such a pleasant experience to be able to communicate with someone who wanted to understand the situation and help resolve it. The fact that there was a human touch was a wonderful experience in these days of automated responses.

Great experience with warranty replacement
My cat door stopped working within the warranty period and they sent out a replacement right away. Someone actually answered the phone when I called, and the replacement was sent out the next day. Really appreciate the service and no hassle warranty coverage!

The customer service was top notch, got back to me within a day of my email. Very easy to deal with, would recommend purchasing from them. No problem with the product I damaged a part when it got knocked off the counter.

Great customer service...much appreciated in a world where so many vendors feel entitled to your business to the point that they forget the customers are the reason they even have a business. Thanks, closer pets.

Works great for multi cat household
I have 3 girls in my room that eat 2 different foods and I need to be able to monitor how much each of them eat. I used to just feed them 4x a day, but 1 ended up with asthma and needs to eat about every 4-5hrs or she'll have an asthma attack due to reflux. I had been waking up at 12 & 4am for 4 weeks before finding this miracle machine. Easy to use. Even dopey cats like mine can figure it out.:)

Jessica and Closer Pets Rescue
Jessica was very helpful
in sending out the information right away. It made it very easy to send everything that was needed. Being able to have a workable feeder again makes it less worrisome too with my cat.
We love our C500s for our two cats
We love our C500s for our two cats. They love to eat, but can't help themselves... so they each have a timed feeder that deploys wet food or kibble for their special diets on a regular schedule. We recently had an issue with the product, but we reached out to customer service and they were very responsive and helpful to get our issue resolved.

Closer Pets is easy to do business with!
I have had a Cat Mate fountain for at least six or seven years. That’s a testament to how well they are made. It is the only water fountain my cats will use. Whenever I need a new pump, because they do wear out, I order one from Closer Pets. Their Customerservice department is very helpful The pumps arrive quickly and that makes my cats very happy again because they definitely miss the fountain until the new pump arrives.  I would highly recommend. Closer Pets and enjoy doing business with them.

I purchased a cat fountain which my cats love drinking out of. Unfortunately, the pump stopped working. I reached out to Closer Pets to request a replacement. Their prompt response recommended I do some maintenance by cleaning the pump. After a failed attempt to make the pump work, I reached out again with the update. Jessica promptly arranged to send me a replacement pump and adapter. Customer service was excellent and prompt in resolving my issue.
