ABSTRACT:
An automatic feeding system includes a tag attached to a body of a pet; and an automatic feeding apparatus for automatically feeding the pet. The tag includes a receiving device for receiving an electromagnetic wave from the automatic feeding apparatus; an information memory device storing information on the feeding of the pet and outputting the information in response to an output from the receiving device; and a sending device for sending the information which is output from the information memory device to the automatic feeding apparatus using an electric wave. The automatic feeding apparatus includes a receiving device for receiving the electric wave from the tag; an information reading device for reading the information on the feeding of the pet in response to an output from the receiving device of the automatic feeding apparatus; a feeding device for supplying feed based on the information; and a sending device for sending an instruction to read the information on the feeding of the pet to the tag using an electric wave.
