My two cats are very nervous so I took the time to very slowly introduce them to their feeders, longer than the instructions suggested. It is a life saver, when one needs medication in their food the other can't nick any, and as one is on a diet I can now weigh out and monitor what he eats. Such a brilliant design, worth every penny and my cats love eating from them! If you have any problems contact their excellent customer service team, really impressed with them.

Zoey is a nervy cat but loves playing with toys, and I think she believes this is a toy!! I left it open for first few days and got her to go near it by putting a row of Dreamies leading up to where her chip would be recognised. She now opens it up without eating anything just wo watch it open and close!!

So I gave this 3 stars previously, as my fat boy was able to reach over the side and steal food as my old girl ate. I contacted Surefeed about this issue and they sent me an after market hood to add to the feeder. Problem solved, fat boy cant reach over the side any longer. As for squeezing in beside the old girl, the hood has also prevented that somehow. So pleased that my old girl can now have all the extra food she needs and can graze all day.

I bought these because the pup kept stealing the cat's food and one cat would lick all the juice off her sister's food! It is a really good product and only got 4 stars because it just won't read the cat's microchips so they've had to wear collars and use the discs intead. I have since moved to the middle east and we have had a phalax of ants makings an exploratory foray in to the kitchen - the seal has kept the ants out of the dishes! And those ants are tiny, like a grain of sand :D

Very disappointed that the unit as a whole is sooo big and bulky. The plastic bowl itself is 0.4litre but the whole unit it sits in is huge. But overall the product is a great idea, food is completely sealed so great to keep flies away in the summer, and does help keep food fresher longer. Would definitely recommend, but I wish SureFeed would make a more compact version, a smaller unit with a smaller bowl (closer to 0.2l). I have 6 ceramic food bowls down at one time (all 0.2l), and they don't take up very much floor space at all, but if I were to have six of these units down, they would take up way too much floor space! I also like to put a couple bowls up high, but these are much too bulky to be able to do that

Ordered three as I have one chubster, who needs to lose a lot of weight and one cat who is slim...the other 3 being about the right weight. Chubster was of course eating more than his fair share of the food put down for the others. Registering their microchips was very simple and the training instructions very comprehensive and sensible. All five cats were happily using the cat feeders within a week. Now I can regulate the amount of food for the cat who is on a diet. Great purchase!

I have two feeders that I been working for over a year and clean up easily. Absolutely the best feeders I've come across that help me keep track of food and help maintain moisture in the wet food.

The main reason I bought this was to prevent food theft by a couple of the neighbourhood cats but it also helps to keep the food fresher for longer as our cat is a grazer. The training mode is very good, very useful and very effective; there are settings for cautious cats too. It is easy to clean. So, full marks from me.

My male cat has to have special wet renal food but the female (who eats dry food) loves to eat it and then gets sick. This has been a time-saver as I don't now have to watch over them when they eat. He learnt very quickly how to use it and it's worth it's weight in gold.

We have two cats, one is a chubby cops and the other has food intolerance so we could not keep both cats without this fab solution. Takes a little effort to get them used to it but even our female (nickname PTSD kitty) got the hang of it. Working well after nearly a year. Lucille, our female has occasionally bullied her way into Ernest's food by holding the flap back with her head, but luckily he has never got into hers as he has the food intolerance. Also great for keeping flies off the food.

If you have a super greedy cat and a grazer cat like I do, this product is a must have in your household. I hesitated over the price for quite a while but there is nothing else like it out there. It is quite a big contraption but now I can feed my grazer cat and walk away knowing that the greedy cat will not be able to steal his food as soon as he can (it is very satisfying watching him try). The grazer cat will then be able to eat his food throughout the day as and when he pleases.

I've been using this feeding bowl for years now. Very satisfied. I work during the day and my cat eats small amounts throughout. The food doesn't dry out in this bowl, flies can't get to it, and I don't have any issues with the smell coming from the food. The bowl runs on batteries, but I only need to replace them at most twice a year. There's an indicator that lets you know when the batteries need changing. Installation is easy.

I was worried that after so many years with a "normal" bowl, my dog wouldn't get the hang of the system—she's 11 years old, but she figured out how to use it straight away. No more flies landing on her food, great invention, we're both delighted with it 😊🐕

Great

I bought one litter box from you, looks great. And I have one litter box with a closed back. That's perfect, the other cat can't get in.

My cat needed a bit of time to get used to it, but now she uses it perfectly. She has diet kibble. My other cat is greedy and can't eat the kibble anymore.

After 2 or 3 years, the motor no longer has enough power to open the lid. As for the battery, the consumption is reasonable.

I've been using feeding bowls from this brand for over a decade now and never had a problem unless it was caused by the user themselves (connection issues due to electromagnetic interference, metal, etc.). I use rechargeable lithium batteries without any issues (definitely give it a try!). Each bowl has been replaced at least once in that time, but isn't that the case with any electronics (motors)? At the moment, I have three very large Maine Coons who have no trouble accessing them.

I’m delighted, despite the investment. I was lucky enough to buy them while they were on sale. I have two cats, one of whom has serious digestive issues and, of course, the other cat’s food bowl always seemed tastier... It was a constant struggle to keep an eye on them, which was becoming impossible. So I bought two bowls and it’s brilliant. The bowls work with each cat’s own microchip and there’s no more hassle.

The idea is good, but unfortunately this feeder doesn’t work with two cats on different diets. One cat can eat from the other’s bowl through the back as soon as the flaps are open. That’s not ideal if one cat is overweight and the other has an allergy and needs hypoallergenic food. Also, the flaps often don’t work properly, they either stay shut or remain open. In short, it’s unusable for us and a waste of money.

I thought it was a microchip-activated bowl, to stop the cats from swapping bowls... But in the end, the bowl opens as soon as it detects any movement passing by.

I have a kitten and a 6-year-old ragdoll tomcat, and I think he might end up with a hernia eventually. I did check if they had larger sizes, but unfortunately not. Today is the first day, so I’m hoping he’ll be able to stand at it better soon. Luckily, they both figured it out really quickly.

I don't think it's stainless steel. More like aluminium.

They now eat happily side by side from one bowl. One of them does have to wait a bit for the other, who belongs to the bowl, before they can join in eating.

I bought this bowl because I had a Labrador who was obsessed with food, including the cat’s. With this bowl, the problem was solved. For wet food, it stops it from drying out quickly, limits smells and keeps flies away… Bought it 4 years ago, it still works and hardly uses up alkaline batteries.

Very good and easy to use 👍

This is really a great bowl, even though at first I doubted my cat would get used to it. She’s very timid, so even the slightest movement of the lid during the first days of training really scared her. But in the end, she adapted really well. I use the bowl outside so that the kibble is just for her and doesn’t get eaten by any passing cats. It honestly makes life so much easier—I should have got one sooner.

I have nothing to say about the item itself, it matches my expectations. I ordered several things, including some litter. The outside of the parcel was perfect, but inside, the packaging box for the item was squashed. They should look at securing things better inside the parcels to stop items from moving around. The delivery driver isn’t to blame.

I've been using these bowls for 5 years now (I have 3 of them) and they still work just as well. I change the batteries from time to time and they're good to go again.

I bought the first two more than 10 years ago. They’re still working perfectly. There were a few years when I didn’t use them, until I discovered that you can also buy covers for them—unfortunately not on Zooplus—which prevent a clever cat from sneaking food from behind when the feeder is open. Every cat that has lived here has learned to eat from it. The timid cat got her food first in a bowl placed a metre in front of the feeder, and then gradually closer to the feeder itself. In short, a top-notch feeder.

We have a cat who is allergic to chicken. This feeder stops her from eating the food meant for our youngest. However, our youngest has developed an interest in the senior ladies’ food. Every night, she breaks open the machine and eats the special feed in the house. She doesn’t sneak food from the side, but instead breaks in with her paw from the front. It’s pretty annoying to wake up and find it open and the bowl pulled out, when it’s supposed to be locked.
