The microchip feeder is brilliant. We ordered a couple after one of our cats was prescribed a hypoallergenic diet. The feeder is easy to program, quiet and it keeps the food fresh for longer. Both cats started using them straight away with no problems.

Got this for our oldest cat so our kitten doesn't eat his food as he's constantly going after it. Saw this and thought oh that's great! It'll shut as soon as our oldest cat will walk away (due to having the tag)... No. It takes over 20 seconds before it even thinks about shutting, by this time our kitten has gotten to the oldests food and eaten a good chunk of it. Sometimes it doesn't even shut at all.

I purchased two of these as one of my cat kept eating out of my others food bowl. These have worked a treat. One of the cats is deaf so they had no issue however the other is very spooked by a lot of things this took him a little longer to get use to it, like the flap opening and eating underneath the raised section etc. but he is now use to it after short amount of time. I think this has also helped slow down there eating as they use to wolf down their food too quickly. Great product.

With two cats on different diets - one renal who lies in wait for that sweet forbidden protein, and one overweight because he steals the renal food - it has been like, well, herding cats for years. Don't know why we waited so long to get these feeders. We are more relaxed because we know they are eating the right food. They are more relaxed because their food is never placed out of reach. It took about three days for them to be completely comfortable with the feeder operation. Highly recommended

This works nicely for my cat who is a grazer and keeps the other one out, it's a shame you can't get a mains plug in version as the batteries do not last long at all.

Absolutely delighted to have found this feeder for our cat. We were concerned about whether he would take to it, but two days of him pondering and staring was all it took before he worked out how to get to his food. No more waking us up in the night due to his food bowl being emptied by the odd unwanted cat intruder eating his food. Would definitely recommend. (No more intruder either )

After paying £120 to a feeder it is ridiculous that they don’t even include the battery. At least they could write that it is not included so I could make it ready. Small calculations…This company has already lost my respect before trying the feeder!

I have a very greedy ragdoll who would go around eating everyone else’s food. I have an elf cat, who because he has to eat more due to having no hair, so ideally needs to graze. This feeder is amazing. Now my elf cat can eat all day and the ragdoll can’t get his food. The disappointment on his face when the lid shuts after my elf cat walks away is priceless. I have 2 other cats, so will be buying more surepet feeders. Literally changed my life. Also my cat was able to take to it straight away.

Now my greedy cat can't steal the grazers food. He got used to it on day 1 and knows what to do. I did get confused with the training steps. You have to click the training button, then treat it like you're feeding everyday (pressing the manual open/close). One issue is that if the programmed cat is sat next to it, you can put your hand past the motion sensors and it opens. So another cat could steal it. Hasn't happened yet though

Had this feeder for nearly a year now as I have a greedy overweight cat and it’s really helped her lose weight. My main issue is with the accessories which not worth the money. Both my cats started suffering with feline acne when using the plastic bowls so I bought the ridiculously expensive stainless steel ones, this didn’t resolve the issue as they still have the rubber seal around the edge. I have now resolved the issue by purchasing the Trixie oval ceramic bowls which fit fine in the feeder.

Purchased two, one one stopped opening for me and my cat. After 1 year. But otherwise they been fantastic

I bought 2 of these to prevent my cats from waking me up in the night for food/attention. One of my cats microchips is quite far down so the door doesn't open for him until he goes right inside. He gets fed up and just lifts the door off with his teeth and paws and I am now woken to the noise of him trying to get to his food. The other one works intermittently for my other cat and the door stays open so my dogs eat the food. Very disappointed as the product isn't cheap.

I couldn't be any happier with my feeders. I have a cat with kidney disease and medication in his food. I can safely now feed him his food knowing the girls won't get it and also he can't eat the girls food. It also makes me aware of when he's gone off his food and how much he has eaten. It has been such a great investment

Our dog has gone to extreme lengths to beat this product. Such as throwing the feeders down the stairs, so we moved the feeders downstairs... (They still work)... He now sticks his tongue under the lid and sneaks the cat biscuits out... Still amazing product though, stops other cats sneaking each others food.. Just have a very determined dog!! Looking to buy more for our kittens.

We have 3 cats, one needs a special diet and the other two are very greedy and will eat any food in any tray. These feeders stop greedy cats and ours have lost about 100g per month for the past few months. They really have revolutionised the feeding of our cats who now only get what they should. Worth the money. However 1 cat manages to scoop food from the side of another feeder and he also moves next to a feeding cat and helps himself to their food! So they are not fully cat proof, but close.

I was a little concerned about how well our cats would take to their SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeders, but to my surprise, it took almost no time at all, even for our scaredy cat! Although this feeder is a bit on the expensive side, particularly when you need more than one, I have found the piece of mind of knowing both our of cats are getting all of their food well worth the cost. The only downsides I've found is that the bowls aren't dishwasher safe, and rechargeable batteries cannot be used.

It was fine at the beginning, my cats learned to eat from it. I have bought two and one stopped working completely. The light is dark and the lid does not open. The second one is not reliable, it lets the cat eat sometimes, but sometimes it shows green light, but does not open. I have tried to return it now, Zooplus told me to contact the manufacturer. I did, but they answered in German. Not sure if i will ever get the money back.

Works perfectly, although even the fastest close speed is too slow for my greedy chonker so I’ve had to place it on the top of the cat tree where only one cat can get to it at a time. The only criticism I have is that the plastic bowls have given my kitten acne on his chin despite the clear film on them presumably designed to prevent the problem. I’ve found a small ceramic one which fits instead, but it would be good if a ceramic bowl was available to purchase separately.

Transformed our lives - no more having to monitor cat meal times. They have both completely taken to them and it keeps the flies off in the summer. Follow the instructions to introdice them gradually. Only shame is that it's battery powered - a mains powered option would be even better.

Love this. Trained him within 36 hours using grazing feeding method. Surprisingly easy for a floof who is still spooked by his own tail.
