How can I fix my broken pet feeder?
Unlikely it is worth repairing if it is out of the one year warranty, as the replacement parts (if available) could be close to the replacement cost.

My fountain stoped working...
If it is the kind of fountain that you can open up and clean etc, you should do that. If it is a pet dish there is a good chance that the small pump inside that pushes water from the bottom to the top has gotten clogged up with pet hair. You should try opening it up, finding the pump, and if there is a build up of pet hair, clean it out and see if that fixes it. You should also be able to watch the pump working after cleaning it out to see whether it is still pumping or whether there may be another issue like a clogged filter elsewhere.In the meantime, turn off the fountain and unplug it, as having the pump running but not able to **** in water will burn it out.
How can i get my cat to use the litter box?
If he is going #2 outside the box, trying putting it in the box uncovered. See if he will get the idea. Or try 2 litter boxes with different kinds of litter. Scoopable litter seems to be good for most cats.
Good luck. :)

My cat got Frontline plus in his eye. What can I do at home to help? I can't afford to take him to the vet right now. Please help.
Eyes are serious and tricky.
You could VERY GENTLY bathe the eye with plain clean warm water. Wiping gently downwards gently making the eyelid close. Then all you can do is leave it up to the cat to apply its own saliva to the injured eye. They do have a form of antisceptic in their salivary glands.
Just keep a close watch and GENTLY wipe away any pus that forms or if the eye sticks shut, with warm water and a cotton ball.
I am sorry you can't take your cat to the Vet, times are hard right now.
I wish you all the best of luck and hugs to you and your cat.
:-)
