ABSTRACT:
An elongate vertically extending housing that defines a hopper in the upper portion, a downwardly inclined chute in the lower part of the housing, and a time operated motor driven rotatable food dispenser disposed between the hopper that periodically by gravity receives food from the hopper and discharges the same into the chute, with the intermittent energization of the motor being by a simple, inexpensive electric circuit. The dispenser is of such structure that granules of food from the hopper cannot lodge between the dispenser and chute structure with which it is operatively associated to cause the dispenser to bind and become inoperative. A food receiving dish is provided that removably interlocks with a lower portion of the housing, with the dish being easily disengaged from the housing for cleansing purposes.
