Keep your cat’s dry food fresher for longer with the Catit PIXI Desiccant Pads. Specially designed for use with the Catit PIXI Smart Feeder, these silica gel pads fit neatly inside the feeder’s top lid holder to help protect food from excess moisture.
By absorbing humidity inside the food reservoir, the desiccant pads help prevent mould growth, maintain freshness, and keep kibble crisp and appetising. They’re ideal for households using long feeding intervals or for cats who prefer their food perfectly fresh at every meal.
A simple but essential accessory to support cleaner, safer, and more reliable feeding.
1. Open one sealed pad. Each desiccant pad is individually wrapped. Open only one packet at a time to keep the remaining pads fresh and effective.
2. Locate the desiccant holder. Lift the top lid of your Catit PIXI Smart Feeder. You'll find a small built-in holder designed specifically for the desiccant pad.
3. Insert the fresh pad. Place the new desiccant pad into the holder, ensuring it sits flat and secure. Close the lid once it's in place.
4. Allow it to absorb moisture. The pad will immediately begin absorbing humidity inside the food reservoir, helping to keep your cat's dry food fresh and crisp.
5. Replace when needed. When swapping in a new pad, remove the old one and dispose of it in your household rubbish. Desiccant pads cannot be reused or washed. 6. Store unopened pads properly. Keep the remaining sealed pads in a cool, dry place until needed. Opening one will not affect the freshness of the others.
Replace regularly: When the current desiccant pad becomes saturated, or you're swapping in a new one, simply remove the used pad and dispose of it in your household rubbish. Use one pad at a time: Each pad is individually sealed, so opening one will not affect the freshness or performance of the remaining pads in the pack.
Keep unopened pads in a cool, dry place to maintain their moisture_absorbing effectiveness. Place the fresh pad into the desiccant holder inside the top lid of your Catit PIXI Smart Feeder, ensuring it sits flat and secure.
Desiccant pads are not washable or reusableÑonce they've absorbed moisture, they must be replaced to maintain optimal freshness in the feeder.
