NOTE: Due to changes in WoW patch 1.10, it's no longer possible for UI addons to feed your pet without direct input; the automatic feeding function is thus no longer available in Feed-O-Matic.

As my Hunter friends can readily attest, keeping a wild pet can be a full-time job. Why, just feeding the critter when he gets hungry can throw off your routine -- you've got to rummage around in your bags, find a piece of food, make sure it's appropriate for his diet, and check your aim before tossing it to him (lest you accidentally destroy a tasty morsel). So inconvenient! Not to mention potentially dangerous... you don't want to spend so long digging through your bags that you or your pet become someone else's snack.

Never fear, Gazmik Fizzwidget is here with a new gadget to automate all your pet-food-management tasks! My incredible Feed-O-Matic features state-of-the-art nutritional analyzers to make sure your pet's hunger is satisfied with a minimum of fuss, advanced selective logic to make your pet doesn't eat anything you have another use for, and a weight optimizer to make sure the food in your bags stays well organized! Just press the "Feed Now" button and it'll intelligently choose a food and accurately toss it to your pet. This is actually one of the first gizmos I started work on... but because I'm a perfectionist I haven't considered it ready for release until now.

### Features:

Makes feeding your pet quick, easy, and fun:
- Manual feeding: Bind a key to "Feed Pet", and Feed-O-Matic will automatically choose an appropriate food and give it to the pet whenever you press it.
- Can use an emote to notify you when it's feeding your pet, with custom randomized messages. See FeedOMatic_Emotes.lua to customize them to your characters!

Helps you manage all the pet food in your inventory:
- Keeps track of which foods your pet likes more, and prioritizes "better" foods when choosing what to feed the pet. Also remembers what foods your pet has "outgrown", and doesn't choose them in the future (unless you've switched to a pet who might have different tastes).
- If you're on a quest to collect several of a certain item which also happens to be something your pet likes to eat, Feed-O-Matic can avoid consuming it. (Unless you're carrying more than is needed for the quest or there's nothing else for your pet to eat.) Type `/feedomatic savequest on` to enable this feature.
- Feed-O-Matic can keep track of what foods are used by the Cooking recipes you know and avoid choosing food you'd rather cook. To enable this feature, type `/feedomatic saveforcook` followed by the difficulty color you want to save ingredients for. (For example, `/feedomatic saveforcook orange` will cause Feed-O-Matic to avoid choosing food items you're guaranteed to get a skillup from cooking; foods used in lower-level recipes won't be given special attention.)
- If you'd prefer to save the better food (that is, those which provide a "well fed" bonus or other effect when eaten) for yourself, Feed-O-Matic can also avoid it when looking for pet food.
- All other things being equal, Feed-O-Matic will try to pick foods from smaller stacks, making sure your food supply doesn't take up all your bag space. When your bags get close to full, Feed-O-Matic will start ignoring other criteria and always choosing the smallest stack so that you won't run out of inventory sooner. }}}

    i'm using this version, and if you right click and set options to ignore the cooking, quest and "with bonus" it works.

    sometimes after i run out of whatever it was set to and buy more i have to reload the ui to reset it, but that's only been since 2.4 went live

    though think i'll go grab the new version from the site XD

    "...to make your pet doesn't eat anything you have another use for"

    No working right now. Pet eats all food, including quest one :O))
    But still good add, ty!

    what we need is for someone to try and get ol' fizz to update it on curse

  • April 6, 2008, 12:57PM (3 months, 1 week ago)

    There is an update for 2.4 dated 3/24/08 at the site tigerhearted gave:

    does anyone know if there is an update for today's release?

  • Nov. 28, 2007, 03:01PM (7 months, 3 weeks ago)

    There is an updated version here: http://www.fizzwidget.com/feedomatic/

    Love this mod!!

  • Nov. 24, 2007, 04:22PM (7 months, 3 weeks ago)

    I get the 'feed me' sounds, but I don't get the hilarious burp when they are getting 0 happiness from food anymore! I loved that!

  • Oct. 10, 2007, 03:17PM (9 months, 1 week ago)

    When my pet gets hungry and wants to be fed, it doesn't make a sound anymore... since Patch 2.2

  • Sept. 29, 2007, 12:28AM (9 months, 3 weeks ago)

    Great mod, but it hasn't been working correctly for me lately (maybe because of 2.2.0?) It doesn't seem like any of the general options are taking effect when I check/uncheck the boxes, so my pet is getting food that I'm saving for cooking or attribute bonuses.

    I go straight to the author's site for both this and Hunter's Helper, but here is the notes for his addon here:

    http://fizzwidget.com/notes/feedomatic/

    Note to the author though. I am using the version 2.2 directly from your own personal page rather then from here. I am also not getting the old pet sounds when my pet wants to be fed. I had to temporarily turn on "display text" for it to flash a message on screen to let me know if pet needs food. So I would have to also add that some of the options need to be retested and see if they still work, and fixed. My cooking is at 365 out of 375....so for me personally at this time I not have any thing flagged for him unable to eat, so I do not know if those options work or not, but do know the..play pet sound....does not seem to work at the moment. Thank you very much.

    The conflict with X-Perl Unit Frames can be fixed by opening the X-Perl options and clicking "show pet happiness" off and then on again. You have to do this once each time you log on. I don't know if its a problem with FOM or X-Perl that causes this, but hopefully it will be fixed in the future.

    This addon incorrectly calculates food levels. It will sometimes try to feed your pet food that is too low level when you have proper level food available (food levels were reduced by 1 in patch 2.0). I reported this to the author, but it still has not been fixed.

  • July 21, 2007, 04:48AM (12 months ago)

    Would it be possible to add an option for the pet to eat raw meat before cooked food? FOM keeps feeding my wolf Talbuk Steak when I've got tons of raw meat.

  • May 25, 2007, 04:43PM (1 year, 1 month ago)

    That's a fine mod, but can you insert a funktion, that a left-click on the feed-button in cmbat cast's healing pet (yes, I don't have enough action bars 4 all abilities ;)?

  • May 18, 2007, 06:51PM (1 year, 2 months ago)

    Irift001 - i have the exact same problem. Even it is just a matter of feeding the pet once, it is a bit of annoyance.

    I hope it will be fixed - becase the addon is probably one of my most beloved addons :)

    wow i luv this mod , but every time in hit a loading screen like an instance , or boat/zeplin travil , or even hearthin from far off it says i dont have any food. i hav to move food around in my bags for it to reconize it agian , how do i fix this?

  • Feb. 18, 2007, 06:22AM (1 year, 5 months ago)

    What i really miss is an option to use conjured food always first...

    i have tons of conjured food in bag, but feed-o-matic uses the normal *expensive* food...

    Peewee you can buy Alterac swiss at freewind post, just a short flight from gadget

  • Feb. 16, 2007, 05:25PM (1 year, 5 months ago)

    There's a version 2.0.5 on Gazmik's homepage: http://www.fizzwidget.com/

    It's changelog includes: "Fixed several bugs in the food-choosing algorithm which tended to result in Feed-O-Matic choosing items you’ve told it to avoid."

    As for why it hasn't been uploaded here... Your guessis as good as mine.
