If you have more than one cat, you already know the feeding chaos — one eats too fast, another steals from the bowl, and someone always wakes you up at 5am. The PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder for 2 Cats is our top pick: it handles two cats separately, connects to WiFi, and keeps everyone on a schedule without daily intervention.

This feeder is designed from the ground up for multi-cat homes, which is a rarity. Two separate food compartments — 5L total — mean you can put Cat A on a diet while Cat B eats freely, with different portion sizes and schedules set from the app on your phone. WiFi connectivity via 2.4GHz works reliably, and the app isn't the disaster most feeder apps are.
The hopper has a twist-lock lid to keep food fresh and curious paws out. Meal logs and low-food notifications are genuinely useful features, not gimmicks. If you're managing cats with different dietary needs or weight goals, this is the one to buy.
It's not perfect — the app needs a Wi-Fi connection to update schedules (can't run fully offline), and the feeding chute can get a little sticky with certain kibble shapes. But for most households running two cats, it solves the problem cleanly.
The PETKIT feeder brings a built-in 1080P camera into the mix, which sounds like a gimmick until you're away for a weekend and genuinely can't tell if your cat is eating or just staring at the bowl. The video feed is clear, the two-way audio works, and being able to check in visually adds real peace of mind — especially useful if you have a sick cat or a picky eater you're monitoring.
It's technically capable of feeding multiple cats, but it's a single-dispensing unit, meaning there's no physical separation of food. If you have one dominant cat who bulldozes the bowl before your other cat gets a chance, this won't solve that. It's best for households where cats are well-behaved eaters and you just want remote monitoring plus scheduled meals.
The app is solid, scheduling is flexible, and the camera integration sets it apart. Just don't buy it expecting the dual-station functionality of the PETLIBRO — that's a different use case entirely.
For most multi-cat households, the PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder for 2 Cats wins clearly. Two independent stations, individual portion control, solid app support, and 5L of storage mean you're genuinely covered — not just working around a single-cat product.
The PETKIT with Camera is worth it if you want to see what's happening while you're away and your cats share a bowl peacefully. Think of it as the surveillance option vs. the management option.
If you're dealing with a diet cat and a healthy cat, or a fast eater and a slow eater, go PETLIBRO. If your cats eat fine together and you want eyes on them remotely, go PETKIT.

The PETLIBRO for 2 Cats is specifically designed for this: each compartment has its own schedule and portion size, so your diet cat gets a smaller controlled meal while your other cat eats normally. Single-unit feeders like the PETKIT dispense from one hopper into one bowl, so there's no way to control which cat eats what.
Both feeders here store meal schedules onboard, so a WiFi outage won't cancel your cats' meals — the programmed schedule keeps running. What you lose is the ability to change settings or get app notifications until the connection comes back. That said, always set the schedule before you leave home, and don't rely on the app as the only safety net.
Physical separation is the only reliable solution. A feeder with two separate stations (like the PETLIBRO) helps by putting distance between the bowls, but a determined food thief can still walk from one bowl to the other. For serious food guarders, consider feeding in different rooms or using microchip-activated feeders that only open for the registered cat. The PETLIBRO dual-station setup works well for most households — it's not bulletproof, but it's a significant improvement over one shared bowl.
