Can anyone suggest an automatic cat feeder that would be suitable for
when going on holiday for a week?

We tried a cattery - but the cat hated it - wouldn't eat - and cried
pitifully when collected. He used to fend for himself before he adopted
us - and loves freedom.

We've been away for a couple of days and just left out a few bowls of
food.
But going away for a week would call for something more sophisticated.

Maybe we could make something simple?

All ideas will be welcomed and appreciated.
