Ethical Cat Indoor Hunting Feeding Kit
Did you know your cat's stomach is only the size of a ping-pong ball? Or do wild cats spend 80 percent of their waking hours hunting for food? Now you can channel your cat's inner panther and feed in small portions with the Indoor Hunting cat feeder kit from Doc & Phoebe's Cat Co. With this unique feeding system, your kitty can satisfy her instincts without leaving your home, and without leaving a real mouse in your lap. Fill the feeders with your cat's favorite food, hide them throughout the house, and let your cat fulfill her wildest dreams. It's a complete bowl-replacement system for one cat, designed for three, small meals twice a day. And, with more feeders, multi-cat homes can enjoy the benefit of hunting, too!
Fulfilling the hunting instinct may decrease your cat's anxiety, discourage "scarf and barf," and even deter night-waking! After all, cat parents love their furbabies, but no one loves that 3 AM wake-up call when the kitty's stomach rumbles. This kit allows your cat to be more independent while satisfying her ancestral hunting instincts. And a happier cat means a happier human.

FAQs
Can I Use The Indoor Hunting Feeder If I Have More Than One Cat?
Yes! Each cat can benefit from their own hunting experience. For multi-cat households, simply add more feeders to ensure every cat enjoys their natural hunting instincts. Many users find the feeders help reduce fights and improve overall happiness among all the cats in the home.
What If I Have A Dog In The Family?
The Indoor Hunting Feeders are specifically designed for cats. If you have a dog, it's best to provide your cat with a quiet, dog-free area for their feeding time. Cats are solitary hunters and prefer to eat alone. Eating in the presence of a dog can cause stress. Simply designate a room, like a bedroom, where your cat can hunt and eat without any distractions from the dog. Your dog can still have access to the rest of the house.
Can I use wet food in the Indoor Hunting Feeder?
We recommend using only dry food or treats in the feeders. The feeders are designed to release small portions of food, which works best with dry kibble.
What if my cat eats wet or raw food?
No problem! You can still use the feeders by offering smaller portions of wet or raw food alongside dry food or treats. The dry food or treats can be used in the feeders while you feed the wet or raw food separately.
How Much Should I Feed My Cat?
For an average 10 lb cat, fill each of the three feeders with one scoop of dry food. The total daily amount of dry food for a 10 lb cat is approximately ½ cup. The feeders will release smaller portions, helping your cat eat in controlled amounts throughout the day.
My Cat Is A Little Chubby, Can I Use The Feeders To Help With Weight Loss?
Yes! The feeders are portion-controlled and provide small, frequent meals throughout the day, helping your cat maintain a healthy weight. The act of hunting for food also provides natural exercise, which can help keep your cat fit and active.
What If My Cat Isn't Immediately Interacting With The Feeders?
Some cats need a little time to adjust. Try leaving the training feeder with your cat overnight to give them some quiet time to explore it. Remove any other food bowls to avoid distractions, and try adding a treat or two inside the feeder to encourage your cat.
How Will My Cat Know Where The Feeder Is Hidden?
Cats have an incredibly strong sense of smell. They will naturally use their sense of smell to track down and find the feeders you’ve hidden.
What About My Cat's Water Intake?
Cats need to drink plenty of water, and they tend to drink more when their water is kept separate from their food. Once your cat is accustomed to the Indoor Hunting Feeder, place the feeders away from their water source for better hydration and health.
How Do I Use The Feeders To Stop My Cat From Waking Me Up?
Before bed, fill and hide the feeders. This will keep your cat occupied with their "hunt" during the night. Just be sure to set your alarm, as your cat may be the one to wake you up, not the other way around!
How Do The Feeders Stop Scarf And Barf?
If your cat tends to gulp their food and vomit afterward, the feeders will help. They release small amounts of food at a time, which forces your cat to slow down and eat more gradually, reducing the chances of vomiting.
Is This Going To Make A Food Mess All Over My House?
No! The Indoor Hunting Feeder is actually a cleaner alternative to traditional bowl feeding. Since each feeder releases only small portions of food at a time, your cat will eat in a controlled manner, reducing the chance of spills or mess.
