Sure Petcare SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder with Sealed Lid, RFID Collar Tags Compatible, Works for Wet and Dry Food, White, 4 x C Cell Batteries Required, Not Included

Product Information

The Cat Mate C3000 and Dog Mate D3000 feeders from Pet Mate are virtually identical feeders, but the difference between them is that they have slightly different feeding nozzles to suit the different kibble sizes of cat and dog food.

The hopper has a capacity of 5 pounds of dry food and greets your cat when it approaches the feeder and the lid over the feeding tray opens, allowing your cat to eat the food. The cat is welcomed by their name and the feeder ensures each one of your cats eats only the amount of food you program for them. That means that when a cat reaches the limit of food for that meal or that day, the cover will close over the feeding tray. It is a great way of limiting food intake and keeping feeding times and portions regular. Shuts automatically:When your pet leaves the sensor area the lid shuts automatically, 3 adjustable lid speeds Once the cat has been registered to that feeder via the microchip or the tag it will only open for that cat. Much to the annoyance of the others.This automatic cat feeder features a base with a stainless steel bowl and a covering lid that keeps the food away from other unwanted visitors. It uses Bluetooth technology that identifies when the cat with a tag is close to the bowl and then opens the lid. The stainless steel bowl holds 1.5 cups of dry food and is easily removable for washing in the dishwasher. SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder helped me so much with the problem of making sure each of my cats gets the right food. This amazing device gives you peace of mind when you are away and keeps your pet full while preventing overeating. This is all the more important for those who have two and more pets. Just imagine that you get a new cat who has the habit of eating almost everything in front of it, leaving the other cat or dog without sufficient food. If you choose to simply place more food in the bowl, you will be watching your pet gaining weight and will be powerless to do anything about it. Not to mention, of course, those pets that have a prescription diet. Microchip cat feeders are designed with a busy cat owner in mind. They help cat parents in preserving the cat food and keeping it fresh so the cat can have the best eating experience. Because of chip feeders that only open to an authorized cat, the rest of the pets or even small children won’t be able to access the food and eat it. Since the bowl will only be uncovered during feeding time, food will stay fresh and away from flies, ants, and other pests. Other cats or pets in your household won’t be able to steal food or eat too much at once, which usually results in obesity. Why You Should Buy A Chip Cat Feeder? The battery-powered timer is easy to use, and allows you to program the feeding time to once every 4, 8, 12 or 24 hours. The timer on this particular feeder is not as sophisticated as that on the Andrew James version or the Trixie TX4 Plus, so you may want to consider one of the other feeders if you require more flexible feeding times.

You can buy automatic pet feeders with timers that range from 24 hours, up to 30 days ahead. The most basic just allow you to set a single time when the feeder will open, however the more advanced will let you schedule meals at different times of the day. Capacity andNumber of Portions These feeders are both designed to be used with dry foods, with a maximum size of 16mm. The C3000 automatic cat feeder is designed to dispense the smaller size of dry food that cats eat, while the D3000 timed dog feeder is designed for larger dog-size kibble. It is recommended that the Dog Mate D3000 is NOT used with small, free-flowing food (smaller than pea size). DR: "The Cat Mate C20 is designed to feed one or two kittens cats or small dogs while you are away. This feeder is very simple to use with its 48 hour timer on each lid. You can specify the portion size too, with 10 options from ¼ cup to 2.5 cups. The feeder will also automatically detect if the food tray is full, and won’t dispense additional portions if this is the case. There maybe those of you who regard the SureFeed feeder as overkill, but it’s good if you have your pet on a calorie-controlled diet, or want to show your vet how your pets have been eating recently, given that meal-time enthusiasm is a good proxy for general health. You can see the times of day that they tend to graze:

Features

What is included: SureFlap Hub, ethernet cable, USB cable, 4 plug adapters (UK, EU, US and AUS), instructions manual The SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder from SureFlap is slightly different to the other feeders reviewed here, as it doesn’t have a timer. Instead, it can be programmed to recognise your cat’s microchip (or the supplied RFID collar tag), and only opens up when they approach the feeder.

If you've got a pooch that requires dog weight-loss food or a cat that needs to watch what they eat, you'll want to look for an automatic feeder that can be set to serve them their exact portion size to avoid them piling on the pounds. Size

Like the C10 feeder, the food bowls and lids are easy to remove for cleaning, and they are dishwasher-safe too. This feeder can also be attached to a piece of wood so it doesn’t get pushed around by a large pet.

At the scheduled feeding time, the feeder will cycle to the next full food tray and the cover will open automatically. This allows your pet to eat at their own pace, but on a regular feeding schedule that you control. This electronic cat feeder with a microchip is run by either 3 D batteries or an AC adapter, both of which you will need to buy separately. It consists of a base with a stainless steel bowl inside and a cover lid over the bowl. The stainless steel bowl is a great choice for hygienic feeding and is dishwasher safe on the top shelf. The cover lid keeps the food fresh and away from other cats, dogs, kids or dirt and insects that could contaminate the food inside the bowl.
