Abstract: The present invention is a novel device having two primary components. The first component is a specialized collar and the second component is a feeder. The specialized collar has a pendant from which an activation magnet hangs. The feeder has a magnetic sensor which is placed in a location so as to sense the magnet from the collar. The feeder is in the open condition except when an animal wearing a specific magnet approaches a feeder, an activation mechanism causes a restriction mechanism to be placed over the food access so that the animal wearing the collar cannot have access to the food. When the animal goes away from the feeder, the restriction is removed so that other animals who do not have the collar will have access to the food.

Abstract: A restricted animal access feeder which includes the concept of having vibratory means and noise emitting means which will scare an animal away from eating food in a desired dish. The vibratory means and noise emitting means are generated by closing of a magnetic circuit so that the vibratory mechanism and noise activating mechanism is activated. An animal who is desired not to eat from a specific food dish will wear a specific magnetic collar that will close the activation circuit. An animal that does not have such collar will not close the activation circuit and therefore, will have access to the food. The invention also includes means to enable the magnet to detach from a magnetic object so that the animal will not be permanently attached to a magnetic object such as a refrigerator.
