An animal feeding device includes a food container preferably shaped as a composite cylindrical can with seamed metal closures, one of which is easily openable. A base member is attachable to the food container through a food distribution coupling to secure the open end of the food container thereadjacent. The food distribution coupling includes a retaining ring for detachably securing the food distribution coupling to the food container to allow food to fall downwardly therefrom through the opening into a food distribution chamber in the coupling therebelow. A plurality of food distribution ports are adapted to receive food from the food distribution chamber for carrying same into the food trough of the base member. The feeding device is capable of stacking by attaching successive containers to the bottom of successively positioned base members through the use of additional retaining rings beneath food container.
