The battery operated SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder reads your cat’s existing microchip or SureFlap RFID collar tag, opening only for the authorised cat. It is perfect for cats on prescription diets, or cats that tend to overeat, and it helps you monitor how much each cat is eating. Designed for multi-pet homes to stop pets stealing each others’ food, the sealed bowl keeps food fresher and free of flies. You connect it to your router using a short ethernet cable.If you have more than one cat, it can be tricky to separate them at mealtimes which is why this SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder is the perfect feeding solution! It ensures that each cat has access to their own food only so you no longer have to worry about overfeeding one cat and underfeeding another. The Hub is an Echo Dot-sized device with cute cat ears that light up green when connected and flash red if it loses its wireless connection to your Sure Devices. The Connect model puts a scale under the bowl to calculate how much your cat has eaten, plus lights to show you how much is in the bowl compared to the portion size you tell it your cat needs – which is a fast, handy way to help you measure out food from a pouch, tin or bag. Neither of our cats has a health condition that requires monitoring how much they eat, but as we had the Connect model – plus a Hub from reviewing the SureFlap – we got to test it out. SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder Connect review We can’t tell how true this or not yet, but the company made the same claim for the SureFlap that we installed about six months ago and it flashed red to let us know to change the battery for the first time yesterday. The feeder uses four C batteries and Sure says that this will last around six months. Sure offers a range of colour options for the rubber trays, and you can get different coloured bowls too (or a stainless steel one), which means you can nicely colour coordinate the feeder with your kitchen – though your cat won’t give a furball about this. Once they’re used to that, you engage the next stage where the lid closes a little. There’s another button on the back of the feeder that starts the various stages of the programme, starting with the lid being completely open at all times so that your cat or dog learns that this is where food happens. The feeder has a training programme that you follow, based on the excellent instructions given in the printed manual including in the box. Teaching your pet to learn to use it is something that takes time. The only problem we found was keeping Bramble away so it didn’t learn to recognise her microchip instead/too. This was a lot easier than with the SureFlap, as all we needed to do was to press the Open/Close button ( below, far left) on the back to open the lid, put some food in, and then when Peggy came to eat, press the Add Cat button next to it. Getting the feeder to recognise your pet is as easy as pressing a button when they’re near. There are no separate compartments as you’d get with a timed feeder you’d use when away overnight, though I can’t see why Sure Petcare couldn’t develop a larger, multi-tray system in the future. You can put one large or two small trays inside – but the lid is only every open or closed.
