Cat Feeder

[VenalWinfrey]

I am going away for two weeks and have to get a cat feeder for my two cats. I'm going to have friends visit every other day to check on them, but basically need something that can dispense food to them at regular intervals, preferably for a few days straight. Does anyone know either a pet shop in London or a website I can check for something like this? I have been looking for the last two weeks and can only find things in the States!! Any help greatly appreciated.

Pets At Home stores stock the PetMate Automatic feeders.

Hopefully that link will work. If not just Google Pets At Home. There is a store in Lewisham but also others around London so sure you'll find one near you, just check their store finder on the website.

A friend of mine left his cat at home for a week. His mum called every day for a short while - but it didn't work out and the cat was freaking out by the time my pal got back.

Next time he went away his mum took her ironing over to his house to do. She was in the house for longer, and the cat interacted much better with her than when she was just 'popping in'.

So - leave all your ironing and cleaning and your friends can do it while you are away and you will have happy cats too.

there may be a cat sitting / visiting service on the notice board at your local vets,or they may be able to recommend someone.
