Animal lovers today are being pressed by the fast pace of life for adequate time to properly care for their pets and animals. Pet owners are spending more time away from home in pursuit of careers or just to make ends meet and often resort to leaving more food available for their pets when they are gone longer. Veterinarians agree that allowing pets free access to large amounts of food leads to overeating and subsequent digestive and health problems. They recommend pets be fed in smaller amounts several times a day. Following this preferred feeding routine leaves pet owners with just a few options. One common route is to beg family, friends, or neighbors to watch after their pets. This often lands the pet owner in the NFL club (No Friends Left), as their friends get burned out from this chore. Another option it to turn to automated devices to feed their pets in a healthy way. Generally, these automated pet feeders are designed for specific types and sizes of pets, usually cats and dogs. There is little else available beyond these types of feeders that will feed other types of pets such as ducks, chickens, pigs, sheep or even horses or exotic pets, without resorting to large expensive commercial livestock feeders. Since most pet owners are not in the livestock business, their budgets do not allow for these more expensive units. There is a growing demand for an “in-between” type of universal pet and animal feeder that can feed the smallest to the largest pet. The automated pet feeder industry has not responded to that demand, until now. Horizon Design & MFG LLC, of Gilbert, Arizona, USA, has created such a universal pet and animal feeder. The Git’Um Fed Automated Animal Feeder is simple in design and function, yet can meet numerous pet and animal feeding circumstances with the basic unit that is available.

The unit can be free standing, mounted on a wall, fence or even a tree, and can even deliver food through partitions such as walls, fences, or barriers to a feeding trough or tub on the other side. At the core of the Git’Um Fed Automated Animal Feeder’s dependability is its patented semi-floating auger delivery system which assures the consistent delivery of a wide variety of food types and sizes.
