Create calm, fair meals for multiple cats by mapping your space, setting staggered schedules, and choosing access-control feeders, with clear pathways and quick fixes to protect slow eaters - even in small apartments.

Vetted by 200 hours of decibel-and-gram testing, these sub-$30 cat feeders prioritize noise, portion accuracy, spill control, and reliability. Get clear picks for micro-spaces, multi-cat homes, and fast eaters to cut waste and mealtime stress.
