WE BOUGHT THIS TO STOP AN INTRUDER CAT BUT WE JUST CANNOT GET OUR VERY NERVOUS CAT TO ACCEPT THE CLICKING NOISE. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR 3 MONTHS, EVERYTHING WE CAN THINK OF, AND SHE WOULD RATHER STAY IN ALL DAY OR STAY OUT, BUT SHE WILL NOT USE IT. WE HAVE HAD TO RESORT TO USING IT AS A NORMAL FLAP WHICH TOTALLY DEFEATS THE OBJECT. IT IS A PARTICULARLY LOUD CLICK! SO PLEASE NOTE IF YOU HAVE A VERY NERVY CAT DO NOT GET ONE!

I put a few treats in the bowl and my cat's chip was registered straight away. The learning process is well designed. My fussy grazer learned to use this within a few days. Now I can leave her food down, safe in the knowledge my other cat - an ex-stray, rubbish bag raider who is *always* hungry - can't steal it. Only negatives are the box wasn't glued together properly and fell apart when opened. And I find the open/close switch sometimes doesn't register it was pressed.

My feeder wouldn't recognise the cat and would only open for a second before closing on her snout! Went through the troubleshooting guide with no luck and was sent a new feeder out within 2 days. Superb can't praise them enough. Well done guys.

I bought 3 and its definitely money well spent, my fur babies all get their own food to eat without stealing leftovers.

I have had one of these for years and with 2 cats in and out it has worked hard. It is great that other cats can't get in, because our cats need to know they are safe from the local tomcat tearaway. Anyway if bits have worn over the years a quick look at sureflap website gives access to trouble shooting guides and videos. The customer support team get back to you really quickly and help sort it out. I would definitely buy one again.

So good keeping the kitten from eating the old guy's food - but as she grew a little and started with more adult food - had to get another to prevent him eating hers! great product - no more flies!! woohoo

I've had cats and flaps for over 30 years and this is the best quality product I've found. More expensive than a regular one but worth every penny. Very simple to set up and program and fits perfectly into the hole from my previous flap. All flaps make a noise as the door swings back into place, this makes an additional small clicking sound as the lock releases and is less draughty than many. The entrance is slightly smaller than average so may not suit very large cats but not a problem for me.

bought in jan stopped working in april, contacted zooplus only to be given a freephone number for sureflap,who then told me i had a faulty motor and they would send 1 in post for me to fit myself do you buy a washing machine from curry's then be expected to fit a new motor yourself i think not, anyway i did fit said part and it's working for now but will never buy anything like this from zooplus again as they should have taken responsibility for this as item as it was purchased from them.

I thought I was going to have to send this back - took my dippy cat about 10 days to get used to it. Do take your time using the training mode - it really does pay off. Now he headbutts the flap out of the way to get to his food. Our cat is grazer rather than a scoffer. So his food dries out or the flies get it.Basically we bin around a third of his food. Not anymore, this seals it, keeps it moist and fresh and no flies can get to it. In fact, at last he is eating more food than ever.

I bought this cat flap 4 years ago and it was straightforward to fit and my cat uses it frequently. Recently the lock button fell out. I rang SureFlap to find out if I could get a replacement part and they took my address and posted it to me without any charge even though it was outside the guarantee period. It arrived two days later. I am most impressed.

These feeders are fab . My female cat would finish off her brothers food as well as her own . She’s now on a diet and can only eat her own food . Brilliant !

We have a 9 kg old cat and he likes this flap. Easy use and really big.

I feel slightly guilty giving this a so-so review - the product seems to work perfectly, but it was a complete waste of money for us. The cat that is the main reason we got it - he's getting bullied out of his food - won't go near it. He is intimidated by the noise and hates having something over his head. He'd rather go hungry than use it. I should have known better! We'll have to try to sell it on, I guess.

In a multiple cat home, our 4 microchip feeders are perfect for our 6 large Maine Coons and 2 smaller breeds to have dietary their needs successfully met. All took very quickly to the sounds and movement (even a very timid one). Batteries last surprisingly long considering how often they are used by snacking cats. No trouble from flies whatsoever in warmer months as units seal food off. These feeders couldn't meet their needs any better; very cleverly designed with a lot of thought.

So pleased with this high quality product. easy to install biggest part being cutting the hole in the door. Programming was easy though my kitten was well behaved and took to it like a duck to water being offered dreamies!. She loves it and other cats dont get in l have seen them trying. Be great if they make a WIFI verion you can lock / unlock by using an App. 10/10 from me.

I bought this SureFlap in the brown colour about 4-5 years ago and it is still going strong. I have found that using lithium batteries are the best, as they can stand colder conditions and keep their charge longer. Only had to replace silver stickers and these were free of charge from customer services at SureFlap. I recommend this item and most of my family have since bought item through Zooplus and seem very happy with it.

I bought one to try it out and it's fab. I have 2 cats who are chipped to this feeder as one of my other cats has to watch his diet. I also have a small female who has a delicate stomach so I am just about to order another so she can have her special food without the others taking it from her. Brilliant product, highly recommended.

My husband and I were new to cat flaps, we didnt have one for our previous cat who tended to spend most of the day out then in for the evening. But this kitten is in and out at regular intervals so we looked into a cat flap to give him the freedom. Would highly recommend, a joiner fitted it in approximately 20 minutes to our rear door, best decision we made, it took a couple of days of patience in training him, coaxing with toys and treats as he was nervous at first of the clicking sound.

This is the second one of these I've purchased they are brilliant, stopped any uninvited guests coming in. So easy to install and programme. This is an excellent price too it's about £20 cheaper than when I bought one about 6 years ago.

With two rescue British Shorthairs, one of whom I've learned will eat her body-weight in food per day given a chance, well, unsurprisingly she's been putting on weight and her sister has been losing out. So I bought two of these and slowly introduced the door movement over some weeks and now it's the new normal for them, with each cat automatically going to her feeder. This means I can better portion control and can obviously tell which cat has eaten what. Expensive? Not at all. A godsend.
