I just want to warn all glider owners that we recently returned home from vacation to find one of our gliders dead, trapped inside an automatic feeder (5 day refrigerated swivel lid kind). We feel terrible and want other glider owners to beware! The gliders had been using the automatic feeder for years during our vacations, and we had an experienced glider sitter. We were all searching for the glider, and never even thought to look inside the feeder or heard noise coming from it. We're still in shock. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/needhug.gif" alt="" />

I'm so sorry to hear this! Thank you for the warning.

What a terrible thing to happen. I cannot imagine the pain and guilt you are going through over the loss of your little one.

Gosh, I have owned gliders for many years. Up till now...I have no idea what kind of feeder you are refering to.

Do you by chance have a digital camera so we can have a look at the feeder you are discribing?
