Homonym: feeder (Nourishment)
A "feeder" is a device or container used to supply food to animals, particularly in farming or pet care. It can be designed for various species, including birds, fish, and livestock, ensuring they receive a consistent and adequate food supply. Feeders can be automatic or manual, depending on the needs of the animals and the preferences of the owner.
In addition to animal care, the term "feeder" can also refer to a person who provides food or resources to others, often in a nurturing or supportive role. This concept is commonly seen in contexts involving family dynamics or community support, where individuals help sustain others, similar to how a feeder supports animals.
