despite cleaning the pump motor as instructed, it failed to work in less than six months and I had to order a new one.

Good afternoon Glenn, I'm sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced with your pump motor. I'm happy to say that all of our pumps come with a 12-month guarantee, so if you purchased it through us directly, then we'd be happy to offer you a refund. Alternatively, we can send out a replacement pump under the guarantee so that you'd have spare in case of future issues. If you'd like to contact our customer service team on [email protected], then we can arrange this to your preference. Best wishes, Aimee

It was easy to order the replacement autofeeder, as the knobs in my 12 YO Cate Mate 20 stopped working. I do like the new one better, as it is improved from the old one - the battery is in a compartment so it doesn't come out (I have tape on my other old one, as the cat pushes it around). The knobs on the new one ARE hard to turn and it doesn't quite keep the same time as the other one (ie if they are both set at 4 hours, this one seems to run a little slower) but I think that might improve with time.

Good afternoon Jessica, Thank you for this wonderful review. I'm thrilled to hear that your previous Cat Mate feeder has been with you for so long and that you're happy with your replacement. I'll pass your feedback on to the team regarding the timers! We hope your cat(s) continue to enjoy their mealtimes with their new feeder. Best wishes, Aimee

Shipping was on time (sent internationally). Received a well packaged product with no damage. Item (stainless steel cat bowl inserts for an autofeeder) exceeded our standards. The autofeeder (also made by Closer Pets) seems like a solid model. It works well and stops our cat from crying for food at 5am. Would buy from again.

I was thrilled to be able to replace a pump for my Catmate water fountain at a reasonable price. I received my order quickly too!

Website could be better. It's a bit harder to navigate than it should be. But everything else is great. I found what I needed and received it extremely fast. It does exactly what I need it to do. I do wish you had more plastic trays for the auto feeder instead of just metal ones, but they are fine enough.
