Sure Petcare - SureFeed Feeder Rear Cover - Only Needed to Help Ensure Persistent Pets Can't Access Food from The Rear of The Microchip Pet Feeder While The lid is Open.

Love this for my cats. I use it with microchip and another one with the collar (aka no microchip in my cat). Both work amazing. I’ve even had one for 3 years now! I also got the back case to keep cats from stealing food. Of course there’s times where my cats can steal food but it at least helps lower the rates significantly.

We have a cat on prescription food that’s expensive and of course our other cats love it. Bought this feeder so that only the intended cat can access that food. Works great; food door is activated from the transmitter on her collar. The food bowls are on a scale so you know how much food has been consumed and can track it on the app. I get alerts on my phone telling me how much she’s eaten. I have it set up for wet and dry food and it tells how much of each she eat. Would buy again. It’s a bit pricy, but worth for the price of her food.

We have 4 cats at home with varying ages and health concerns.At one point, my youngest was recovering from FIP and needed access to food constantly. My oldest would take the opportunity to graze on the excess food. She had gained some weight, and needed to be put on a prescription diet separate from the rest.These bowls have been a life saver in being able to monitor the amount of food they’re consuming in a day. She’s lost a bit over a pound in a year (monitored by a vet) thanks to these feeders.

This hood is probably a necessary accessory for the majority of cats using the feeder it attaches to. It's too bad it isn't built right into the main product, but maybe having it separate keeps the cost down for the cases where the other cat(s) aren't aggressive enough to steal food out the back of the feeder when it is opened by the authorized cat.The hood is pretty easy to snap on and stays in place. A cat isn't going to be able to remove it. However, the lid does bang against it when it opens, which might startle your cat, especially when (s)he's still getting used to the feeder. The sound also helps alert my fat cat that the treasure chest is open. I was able to reduce the noise a bit with some adhesive felt pads right where each corner of the lid strikes the hood.The hood does eliminate the problem of another cat being able to get around the open lid and eat food that isn't theirs. My fat cat still just pushes his skinny brother aside and eats his fill while "Skinny" passively waits or just walks away. If the lid would close when the authorized cat was no longer in range that would help a lot, but maybe it's a safety feature that it stays open as long as it senses something inside the feeder. Anyway, that's not a shortcoming of the back hood, which works as intended.Even though it seems pretty expensive for what it is, it does work and blends into the rest of the product as though it was always there. I'm glad it's available and I didn't have to rig something up myself to close the back of the feeder. Now if only they'd make a similar tunnel-like attachment for the front to keep Fatty from being able to push his way in before the lid can close.

I love that it works. It attaches well to the feeder and does what it’s intended and that’s keep the sneaky kitty out of the back. I hate that it’s needed and that it’s almost $40. Why in the world are the feeders not just made enclosed? What is the point in keeping the back open? It’s maddening but the feeders themselves are total game changers so you get all pissed off and continue to checkout.This gets 5 stars because it’s worth 5 stars. If I were rating the feeder itself it would get less because it shouldn’t be made to require this piece in the first place.Edit to add: Will not stop your fatty from sneaking next to your cat and eating with them… had to spend even MORE money on Etsy to get 3D printed cat head shaped attachments for the front of the feeders to allow only one cat at a time. Works like a charm. A million dollars later and this feeder is awesome.

I shelled out so much money for this microchip feeder, only for my very stubborn cat to keep sticking his head through the back and continue to eat the other cat's food. This rear cover was absolutely necessary to prevent this. And it works well for that! My stubborn cat can't stick his head in the back while the other cat is eating. This system isn't foolproof, however. He still may try to stick his head in to squeeze in next to her while she's eating (because it's wide and I assume designed for fat cats) and if she leaves, he still might be able to grab a quick bite before it closes. But with this back cover, it does a much better job preventing him from eating most of her food.

My cat has the chip between her shoulder blades and it would not open for her. Collar will not work-brother would work on it till he got it off or drag her around the house with it if he couldn't get it off. SO disappointed! She snacks, doesn't eat all at once and I have to watch brother because would eat hers and his. This would have made my life so much easier if it had worked. So unless you can use the collar--beware!

I have 4 cats and a small dog (13lb) and needed to change how I fed them due to health needs and some food bullying.Liam, a senior cat with inflammatory bowel disease, needs steroids added to canned food, so his needed to be kept safe from the others. He took to the feeder instantly. No issues here.Sam, an adult cat with diabetes, can only have access to canned food. He took to the feeder within 1 week.Finn, a senior cat who only likes dry food. He is very skittish and afraid of life in general. It took about 2 weeks to get him comfortable with using the feeder, but now he is happy and I know he is finally getting his fair share every day.Noti is a super easy to feed adult cat. He took to the feeder instantly.Olli is a small dog who gets bullied by the cats in regards to his food. He is slower than the cats to trust the feeder, but he has only had his for a few days and I feel confident he will get the hang of it within a week.I bought 2 feeders and receive 3 as gifts from my wonderful family because otherwise this may not have been an option for me. The feeder is ridiculously expensive and then you get up charged for each piece. The feeders have a MAJOR design flaw with the back being open, so you have to spend another $20 and buy the back cover separately. It also brags about having 4 different color bowl sets, well those sets are at least another $25. Total cost to make these bowls work as advertised is actually closer to $200 per feeder. Insane for a product made completely of thin, cheap plastic. They do have a small motor noise when opening and closing, this is where the training comes in, but the animals all get comfortable with it within a few week.Summary:The good: This feeder works for what I need it to, restricting pesky pets to ensure everyone gets their own food and only their food. Can be color coded to make life easier at meal time.The bad: Takes a bit of training (about 2 weeks per pet) to get your animals comfortable with these feeders. Every piece of this product is made out of thin plastic, I see it only lasting a few years at most. You need to buy a back cover to make this bowl even work right as other pets can just go around back and join in while your pet eats.The ugly: This company doesn't care one bit about the animals it serves. It is all about getting every penny out of you they possibly can. I will change to another brand as soon as another company comes to market with a new option. I would only recommend these to people with pets with health issues as they are beyond expensive and cheaply made.

Es solo la tap de plástico

よく見ていませんでした…これはカバーです。

Perfect for making sure your other cat can’t steal the food while your cat is eating.

Ett måste att ha denna. Annars kan en annan katt komma in bakifrån och äta samtidigt med den katt som öppnat luckan. Har du bara en katt så behöver du inte denna.
