Because the feeder holds a single meal and is designed for access control (multiple pets) and not really automatic/timed feeding. A feeder with a sort of food hopper isn't too useful to me since I alternate dry/wet food for breakfast/dinner. A lockout timer would be though!

Only feed them dry for breakfast using the machine; do wet manually at night.

This.

Dry before work.

Wet when someone gets home. A little dry later. (Which they don't touch right away because they're satiated.)

Wet right before bed. They don't get ticked off unless you sleep in late because the late wet food is so good.

Cured the cat clawing at the door all night because we were trying to put them on a human food schedule for the wet stuff.
