    I just fucking LOVE YOU sooo much XD You have made this purchase, just so REAL for me. Lots of videos out their promoting this product. But you have eased my mind, and totally explained how this works. So well done mate. I was worried if one of our cats would be trapped outside, not be able to get back in. Your video has made me right now buy this product. Well done, get that promotion x We don't need fancy videos, we need REAL ones. Which is what you have done x Just loved your video. Thank you x

    My flap was only put in today but even with the Manuel I'm not sure which button to press to get the chip recognise. I'm going to use it for my dog so I hope I can figure it out. Mine is all digital operated which is nice but obviously more complicated for me. But great that you explained it so well. ,👍

    I’ve just purchased this exact one today from my local Pets At Home. I spoke to a member of their staff telling them that my cat Honey, is 11 yrs old, very timid and shy of strangers, is getting very upset and distressed due to another neighbouring cat coming through her cat flap and eating her food. We know this for sure as we have security camera front and back. My cat Honey is my fur baby, and as much as I love cats, my baby comes first. We’ve fitted the new flap today, and put the batteries in. I got her to put her head through in order for it to read her chip. All seems to be working, she’s been out through it. She was a bit nervous coming back in as it made a clicking noise(to be expected) but she did it. Hopefully this will now be the end of neighbouring cats coming in. We’ll just watch our camera footage of them trying, and we’ll laugh. Hopefully they will get bored and come to know that they can’t get in. Fingers crossed. Love and respect to all you cat lovers 👍🏼❤️😺🇬🇧

    We’ve had a new door fitted this week and chose the same microchip flap like yours. One cat had no problem. The other is scared of the clicking noise and disappeared for 24 hours in protest. He returned but was very suspicious of new door and flap. We took the batteries out and he will now use the flap. Won’t put them back in for a while, let him get used to it and try again when we are home all day. Fingers crossed.

    Can anyone please let me know if it would work for/against your own cats? I have 3 cats and only want 2 of them to have access into the main house from the cat run. As the third will run away and stay away for weeks at a time often only coming back when he’s been injured and required veterinary treatment. I wonder if I buy this will he be able to just closely follow the others through the flap before it locks again or will it close behind each cat?

    bonjour, ma chatière SureFlap Petcare n'a fonctionné que 2 mois et demi en reconnaissance de puce. Le service après vente me dit que ce n'est pas réparable , et qu'elle n'est plus sous garantie vu que j'ai attendu d'en avoir la nécessité (présence d'un intrus) pour mettre en service la reconnaissance de puce. Je déconseille donc fortement ce produit qui s'est avéré non fiable en ce qui me concerne.

    There's a couple of reviews of the larger model, saying a clever cat can still get in hoooking the door to the outside with their claws, when it's in the in/out mode. The little lock apparently only locks it from the inside, so the door can't be pushed in, but ca be pulled out. Thoughts?

    • @ProductReviewsHelp

    • @prusak26
      @prusak26 Год назад

      @@ProductReviewsHelp I have since bought and installed this flap. It would have to be a cat equivalent of Albert Einstein to open it from the outside. It also has a special mode, which can be activated in the settings, that engages the outside lock when an unprogrammed cat tries to pull it ope from the outside, so thumbs up. Our cat also learned how to get in on day one, not deterred by the click. Couple of days in, she still needs a little encouragement on the way out, but I'm sure she'll work it out.

  • @dmaifred
    @dmaifred 2 месяца назад +1

    Would this stop my second cat getting through? He is v smart and when a normal flap is set one way he just gets a claw in and pulls it forward. Sometimes he whacks it enough to catch it on the reverse bounce. He is very food motivated. The reason I want one of these is so the other cat can eat at his own pace in the pantry.

    How fast is this one to unlock? It seems pretty quick in the video. I ask because I have a Cat Mate one that takes about a second to unlock. This leaves our cat vulnerable to being attacked from behind by the neighbours' cats who she frequently gets into fights with!

    Hi, I was wondering which size you bought. I see they have 2 sizes, and i think the small one is big enough, but it says the opening is 12cm wide, while my old one is 15cm. The hole in the door does seem to be the same size, but has the small one really just a 12cm door? Your cat is bigger then mine, so if you have the small one, then I think my cats can do it also

      You can get emergency break away collars. We buy a bunch for our cats and when they break we just put a new one on.
      The microchip is a standard thing in the UK, dogs and cats both have them. I think dogs have to by law now, could be wrong. A think you can have it done at the vets and it's a tiny thing that doesn't take long at all.
