Sure Petcare SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder Connect with Hub, RFID Collar Tags Compatible, Mobile App Control, for Wet and Dry Food, White, 4xC Cell Batteries Required, Not Included

This is a wonderful device that works perfectly and is very hard to find fault with. I bought it because my elderly cat was having his food stolen by a neighbour's cat and this exceeded all my expectations. It appears to have been improved too, as earlier reviews mention a noisy motor, which can scare cats, but mine is virtually silent. Some reviews also mention how cats can steal food from the side when it is open. But mine has clear plastic screens which help prevent this. Not only does this ensure my cat has the food he wants and the medication he needs, but, because he used to wake me up when there was no food available in the middle of the night, it means I get to sleep better too! It also provides mental stimulation as the cat learns to use it. It did take my cat a little while to get used to it but a cat's natural curiosity helps and it is well worth persevering. It has a training mode which also helps, but my top tip is to put some treats on the front tray. When the cat eats the treats, the main compartment opens and the cat gets a nice surprise that food becomes available! I also recommend setting the switch on the bottom to the slowest closing setting at first. This ensures it stays open for at least 20-30 seconds after the cat moves away so it stays open if the cat picks up some food to eat on the floor, as mine often does, or it just backs away temporarily to gain confidence. But after a while, the natural caution subsides and the cat is happy to use it. I'm summary, I can't recommend it enough. It is fairly compact, feels well constructed and does exactly what it is supposed to do. I only have one cat but I can imagine it is great for multi cat households where one cat needs special food or medicine. Perfect!!

We purchased two of these cat feeders to solve a specific problem, which it solved and unexpectedly, it also solved two other problems. We took on a rescue cat, with her kitten from the Cats Protection League in 2012. We knew we might have a few issues with a neglected & ill-treated cat, but we were not expecting the cat to eat all of her food and then eating all her kitten’s food. We had to intervene and very quickly got to the stage where the kitten would be fed in the kitchen, then when she had enough to eat, the mother would be fed. The mother will then eat her own food and what was left of the kitten’s food. As the kitten matured, we would warn off the mother from her daughter's food (a hard stare worked) and we managed to arrive at a point where the kitten got enough food, but the mother was getting too fat. The vet did not view this as a problem, but health problems would be coming if we did not act soon. The mother was too fat to clean her own back and we had to brush her, so action was required before health conditions from over-eating arrived. We moved house, where we had fields at the back of our house and this led to many flies landing on the cat food, which was clearly not good. The wet food would also dry out and would become inedible. We got these cat feeders from Amazon and used the two sided bowls, one for dry food, the other side for wet. We spent about 3 weeks training the cats with the training modes within the cat feeder, which made progress easy, but steady. This was all worth it, the food is covered and the flies cannot get to it, but more importantly, the mother cat only gets her share, she is losing weight and her daughter no longer has to eat all her food at once, or face the reality of losing most of it. The cats are now relaxed as the feeder lids open and they eat their food happily. The wet food is fresher and you can see that it retains moisture throughout the day, as condensation forms on the inside of the lid, which the food fresher most of the day. This has been a very effective device to keep our cats healthy & happy. It is battery operated, so it can be sited anywhere in the home. Setting up was easy, the instructions were easy to follow and helped a great deal. We knew that taking on an ill-treated cat would come with issues (photographs after her rescue show a very skinny & scared cat), her over-eating is clearly the result of cruelty and not a reflection of her true self. Things have progressed well, she can now clean her own back. Incidentally, it took two years with us before she would purr, so the neglect and ill-treatment cast a long shadow for her and this feeder is putting to rest the last vestiges of that long shadow.

This feeder is the best of the best as far as I’m concerned n I can’t believe I haven’t already got one I could of done with one of these years ago, this is gonna stop my dogs pinching the cat food plus if your cat is on medication you just put it n his/her bowl and as long as you have set it up right then only the cat that is on meds can open it n if another cat comes along it just shuts down!! How cool is that!! I’ve just ordered a second one as it’s so great I need 6 n total but have too wait abit before I can order the 4th one!! It maybe abit pricey but believe me it’s worth every penny! 😎👍 Up-date: These feeders are great and simple too set up!! You simply press the button on the back with a cat picture on it then the flap will open!! Just put some food or treats to tempted the cat in n once he’s gone n and picked up the treat up is all done the flap will close and the cat will be programmed too that feeder!! It’s has a intruder function so if another cat comes along too eat while the other cat is eating it shuts down until the intruder has gone!! However this is not in the Instructions so I’ve Up-loaded a photo of how too set it on intruder mode!! It just stops all the hassle of cats pinching other cats food. I need another 3 as I’m getting my dogs one!! This is not realy recommend for dogs but I have the smallest dog n the word the Chihuahua and it also works great with them!! 😎👍 I’ve found over time if you have more then 1 cat even with the Intruder mode on the cats can avoid this by going around the back of the feeder, I’ve looked around too see if there’s a case that would clip on the back too stop this I’ve got 5 feeders and it’s stopped the hassle at there feeding time but now it’s created another problem for me I gotta keep an eye open so I can stop them from going around the back n pulling them out!! It’s just a minor problem I still think & still recommend these feeders!! 😎👍

Wir haben die unsere 3 Katzen 3 im Einsatz, was auch sehr bewährt. Eins bekommt Kittenfutter, eines Seniorfutter und eins Diätfutter. Wir füttern früh, spätnachmittags und nachts, jeweils so 80-130g. Wir haben auch die Katzenklappe und den Trinkbrunnen. In Summe eine runde Sache.

I bought two of these, one for my 11 year old cat that suddenly stopped eating the dry food we keep out, and he became anorexic. He lost 5 pounds which needed to be gained back as quickly as possible for his survival. Coincidentally our other cat become obese. For Cat 1, we need to feed him a high protein wet food diet so that he gains weight, and for Cat 2 we switched to a dry food with fiber so she can lose weight. We needed a way to ensure that the skinny cat only eats the food to fatten him up, and the fat one only eats the diet food. The Sure Feeder works great for that! Each cat eats only what they are supposed to, and both feeders work flawlessly. FYI I have not experienced the problem that others have mentioned regarding one of the cats sneaking behind and eating the other's food - but YMMV. I had one opportunity to call their customer support in the UK (I am based in Dubai), and they were fantastic. One of the feeders had a glitch with a red light blinking and no action, and it was fixed with a simple reboot. But the personal service I received was really terrific. Overall I - and my two cats - have had nothing but positive experiences. If you are in a situation similar to mine, I recommend that you give this a try.

Was working fine until now. It’s been 3 months I bought it and now the feeder opens when my other cat presents its face only without any tag around her net. I am back with the same problem with the one cat eating all the food and the other is a slow eater. Very disappointing for that price.

Très bon produit, je n’ai rien à dire fonctionne très bien et ça marche très bien. J’ai même réussi à faire maigrir un de mes chats grâce à elle lui donnait la bonne portion.

Top! Fonctionne avec la puce d'identification ou un pendentif fourni. Fonctionne à piles non fournies. Quelques temps d'adaptation mais ça me paraît bien pour éviter que le chien ne pique dans la gamelle en permanence ! Seul bémol, pas assez en hauteur pour le bien être du chat.mais je recommande
