You have got to be kidding me! Warning: Only ONE feeder per PetNet Account!

You have got to be kidding me... I've been a long-time PetNet customer, having had a Gen 1 PetNet feeder for our middle-aged cat over the past three years. In general, the Gen 1 feeder has worked sufficiently enough that we've managed to keep our cat well fed over that time. Fast forward to this week, when my wife adopted a second cat. So, naturally, we purchased a second PetNet feeder to that we could feed the kitten separately. Much to my surprise, when setting up the new feeder, we discovered that PetNet allows only ONE feeder per household account. You CANNOT have use two PetNet feeders under the same account. You must register another account -- completely different email address -- and setup the second PetNet under that account. Unreal. That means that, barring having every person in your house register a separate PetNet account for each dog and cat in a multi-pet home, you cannot centrally manage more than one feeder. The physical quality of the Gen 2 feeder is decent enough, and the setup was fairly easy once I got past discovering that I couldn't register two feeders under a single account. The PetNet app is SEVERELY lacking in flexibility and function, as I've previously mentioned. We've decided to keep this feeder simply because we're in a bind and need the automated feeding for the kitten during the workday. If we werent in a bind, we'd return the feeder tomorrow and find another brand that actually supports multiple pets in a single household. I'm rating this feeder at two stars -- which represents the number of accounts that I had to setup with PetNet in order to support my two PetNet feeders. Seriously, I suggest looking elsewhere. It appears that there are much better alternatives out there. Caveat emptor.
