Sure Feed microchip Feeder (Misc.)

Customer Review

Our indoor cats (2 cats and 2 hangover) were so far used the were once filled their bowls in the morning. Because of this, having a cat kidney problems, the food had to be changed. Cat owners are aware of the price of a special feed (suit) to sing. Because of the four open wells it is hardly possible to separate the food for the cat, so each got the special feed. Of course, it is good for everyone and promotes good health, but is also a high cost factor. After a long search we found the Sure Feed feeders and ordered immediately.

The machines make a robust and stable impression that the design is appealing, but it is always in the eye of the beholder. The annexed guide is available in English only, a German can be found on the Internet on the homepage. When programming the chip should be careful not these are too close together, we have made this mistake and a cat could inadvertently serve to 2 cups. Reprogramming was fast from equip, our cat has taken a little longer to understand that he only has one well ;-). After only 2 days to most of our cats have got used to the machine. The clean and change the different wells (Single and Split) is good and quick to perform. The soft whir of the lid is annoying in any way, for our cats, it is a welcome sound, and then there's food and now squats every cat in front of her own bowl, waiting more or less patiently, to the filling. The time how fast the lid closes again automatically when the cat is leaving the bowl in three stages, below the machine, adjustable. Because the machines we were able to feed for 3 healthy cats to less costly change (but still high quality and healthy), at the same time we do not as often need the expensive special food for our sick lady of the house.

The price is high for these machines and is bought only from pet owners who have multiple cats, sums it accordingly. It is incomprehensible that the required batteries not included. 4 pieces per machine mean the first time more spending. Whether you additionally colored (Sitchwort: color vision of cats) brings food bowls or mats, each self is left. The transparent side walls, which are to prevent another cat does not come to the feed while the other is eating is poorly resolved. Because the side walls, are probably bent for design reasons, it keeps other cats from not really. Two of our cats make it almost without problems sideways to squeeze her head with in or with their paws, lining out to fish. The time for the automatic closing of the lid is, can only be set in three stages. Multistage would be better that it sometimes even creates her head against the lid to keep another cat and steal food. A short setting causes the lid closes immediately as soon as the cat only once briefly raises his head. The cover makes a robust impression, but the question is how resilient the engine. In gechipten cats you should make sure that is not implanted the chip too far behind the neck of the cat, otherwise there are major problems because the sensor of the machine does not recognize the chip and the lid is closed.

Every cat owner knows that they are sensitive to changes. That should be a clear and if you At length the feeders. For us it was before so that the four wells were open and were only filled in the morning. Our Stubentiger ate morning part and helped themselves at rest during the day in each well. The introduction of the machines, the feeding behavior has changed dramatically, at least for a hangover. Previously a quiet representative for that matter food (only a little in the morning and the rest during the day), now eats instantly the entire bowl empty. Although the amount of feed has not changed. He has already been able to lift the lid from the anchorage in another machine to get at the food. For him, the process of change takes a little longer than his roommates. Consequently, one must also change as a can opener and feed the cats several times a day, or distribute the same amount on the day. Our sick lady, however, is surprisingly well with the changeover. Before a Napfstreuner, empty now completely relaxed only on their own. With very good success. Your weight has been reduced already noticeable, has again become more agile and our vet is happy about the steadily improving health condition.
We are after all very happy with the machine. A recommendation for all who have a multi-cat household in which one or more cats on diet are maintained or must get special food due to diseases.

Postscript
Once the machines are now a few months in operation, I would like to add a few structures experience. The batteries still hold. In a multi-cat household you can finally actually find the feeding habits and you know which cat more or which needs less. Especially because we have distributed the amount of feed to two periods a day. Once in the morning and the rest for lunch / afternoon. It is also no longer tried from other wells purely grab by side to steal food. Initially, there were still problems with our quiet from our eyes cat with relaxed eating behavior (see first report). He has also managed to remove the tray from the machine to gain access to "crumbs" food that lay underneath. (We do not know how come the lining under the shells). This behavior is, however, become increasingly rare. Other cats in turn require less feed allocated originally intended as respectively. Based on this experience, I have to admit, we would never know without the car painting, now receives each cat / cat the amount of food it needs. No more receives too much or too little. Our cats have become more relaxed, because there are hardly any Futterneid. Every night I fill from small Tupperware jar, according to the amount for each cat. The next day, the amount is distributed to two refills. On the subject of "longer fresh food" through the cover. Well. Feuchfutter adheres only slightly longer fresh, to the lid closes simply not hermetically sealed. With dry food, it is not as dramatic. But the cats notice the difference in wet food and leave it after some time just "be left" as in open wells.
