Are the Surefeed MICROCHIP PET FEEDERS worth it?

I am sorry for taking so long to make another review, my "main" channel has taken up so much time recently but I am making sure I make at least one review a month here! Although do check out my other channel as many of the videos have loads of cat content in there!
This is all about the Surefeed Microchip Pet, as in cat, feeders which I have been using for almost 2 years. They are absolutely essential if you have cats who are on different or controlled diets.
Enjoy the video, it took a lot of time to make but I hope you think it was worth it! The last review was mostly Lollipop and the twins, this video has loads more Harriet and Jimmy the Greek in it!!

Watched it for the cinematography, stayed for the cats.

[@noway4435]

This channel is so criminally under-viewed. I am getting my first cats and these are undoubtedly the most info packed reviews I‘ve found. Also, your cinematography is amazing! You make your own home look endless or at least incredibly huge with clever shot composition! Great pacing as well, I usually have trouble focusing on any video but these have me staring at the screen!! Your cats have a great live, I‘m very happy for them :)

[@Donderlab]

Philip, as a filmmaker and a cat mum this channel is a god send. Please continue making videos!

[@Kittongrl720]

Yes! More videos, please!!

[@amandarowley4588]

You're the first reviewer that mentions and actually shows how to clean them and the difficultly level of doing it. Thank you for that insight!

[@DawnDupponmi]

You’re blessed to have five furry companions. The cats are blessed to have such a responsible hooman.

[@saturn7404]

This is so beautifully shot. You deserve millions of subscribers and views !

[@OneManFiveCats]

Thank you :)

[@UsernamesForDummies]

You’ve got to admire Harriet’s tenacity. She knows what she wants (food and more food) and doesn’t get sidetracked.

[@desolatefox]

The fact that you don't eat meat BUT you're wiling to cook a whole chicken for your cat is so sweet.

[@Adam-un6de]

I watched all the videos here and don't even have a cat, i also watch all the ads because i hope in someway the revenue goes towards your trips to help the cats. I loved the documentary and actually came originally from the main channel as i just have to watch anything you make because like so many others, i just enjoy your work. Filming editing and sound design is just so much more than we get from any other channe in my opinion. Thank you for all your effort Mr Bloom and good luck with the cat charity in Skiathos.

[@OneManFiveCats]

Thank you!

[@ThisIsTechToday]

I didn't realize how different cats were in regards to their eating until now. I just got my two beautiful Siamese, one a seal point and one a redpoint. Funny little personalities, but I love them already.

[@OneManFiveCats]

You got two Siamese! That’s amazing!

[@Clickumentary]

Indeed they are. I have two rescue cats from same litter and they are diametrically opposite with regard to their eating habits. If I left them to their own devices, one would eat both of their food, likely yak it back up with his sister to come around later and pick at the remnants. We can't have that on a daily basis lol.

[@terrijuanette486]

Favorite Part: Harriet sitting there looking at the Roomba as if saying, "Just go around me."

[@hersheyam]

Harriet is the most precious baby and I love her!

[@domwolfram2053]

I LOOOVED the shot of harriet not moving for the roomba. hilarious

[@lilithmarleen]

Awesome video, and it’s always nice to see a man unashamedly showing love for his little critters. Keep them coming!

[@cuppkate]

Got 4 cats and each has their own microchip feeder and yes, they are 100% worth it 😁

[@jj_hoolio]

I feed two very, very diets to two very different eaters, lol! My goal was to have them both on the same diet, period. For years, they were on a 50% kibble, 50% canned diet, the wet fed once in the am, once in the pm, with kibble almost 24/7 (with occasional unintentional gaps, like in the morning before we got up to refresh the dish). Well, Moki (the great maw in my profile picture) started gaining weight. And eating his brother, Beemer's, wet food. It was literally years of my nigh constantly chasing him away, getting immensely frustrated, and losing the joy of having both my boys (but no, separation or getting rid of either was never an option). I looked into raw diets, as i had seen incredible results in dogs and just wanted to see if or how it's done for cats. HOLY COW. So cool!! I researched for several weeks, adjusted the way i fed my cats (24/7 food was immediately stopped, and soon the kibble was taken away entirely, and we had 3 wet food meals a day), then took the plunge when Beemer started getting picky about his food. Bought 30 lbs of raw ground mixes that only contained meat, bone, and organ; no dumb additives like fruit or veg, not even supplements or salt. just plain, REAL cat food. Beemer ate some of it for a while, and to make a long, complicated, stressful story short, we put him back to an all canned food diet, bc he has hypothyroidism and chronic kidney disease, lost a lot of weight fast, and now refuses to eat anything but a few choice flavors of Tiki Cat after deciding he hates his usual 9lives pate (which, btw, the tiki cat is more expensive to feed than the raw i feed my other boy). ANYHOW. Moki is now completely raw and doing fabulously. he has lost fat, gained muscle, is more alert and playful, and obviously feels better. he loves chowing down on his meals, and feels full afterward; he doesnt have the same endless obsession with eating his brother's food. doesnt mean he wont try or take a chance when one presents itself, but he gives up almost immediately and can go take an after-breakfast nap. now Beemer is on a 'if you'll eat, do it' diet of canned food. he has constant access, day and night, however, like i said, moki will help himself if given the chance. so my poor mom feeds beemer on her bed, and he wakes her up to open a container for him. by biting her face. lol, its a good thing we adore him. but its becoming really hard for mom to keep up with that, so i think we'll be picking up a microchip feeder. Moki will never go back on kibble, ever, bc i doubt he'll ever become a picky eater, and besides that, kibble has so much wrong with it. cats become addicted to the flavor of it, and being cats, they dislike trying new things. THAT SAID. your kitty already likes roast chicken. wouldnt be hard to add the roast chicken to her kibble, slowly transition her away from kibble entirely, then cook the chicken less and less until it's pretty much raw, then add the bone and organ (after you do ages of your own hard research bc you need to know how to feed raw correctly for it to be worth doing; 'Cats Completely Raw and Proud (Cat CRAP)' on facebook is a great resource; theyve helped me so much). i guarantee that your calico, a former stray, will go crazy for a raw diet. it's possible she wouldnt need much of a transition. she will likely lose her obsession of the food bowl, and will be more satisfied, lose that stubborn weight, and find mealtimes to be more stimulating (the goal is to get them on more whole-foods; bone-in, skin-on chicken wings, chunks of appropriate organ, even whole prey, yall). raw diets have great benefits, ranging from allergy relief or healing to weight loss to improved activity level. you owe it to your obligate carnivores to at least check it out. Perfectly Rawsome . com has wonderful info, the aforementioned facebook group has beginner recipes that are super simple, or you could even do a freeze-dried or other premade raw. there are loads of options out there. i feed pre-made grinds from Hare-Today, but they are not complete/balanced, so i do make some adjustments when feeding, and i follow a PMR, or Prey Model Raw, meaning no fruits or veg, no grains, nothing but meat, bone, and organ. i bought the 30 lbs mid-july, and i still have 10 lbs left. my boy is not the most rambunctious, neither is he a kitten with endless energy, so he doesnt need as many calories as other cats may. All this to say, Moki eats about 3 oz=$1.02 worth of food daily (my food calculator said he should be at 4.5, but he was gaining/keeping weight on at that amount; we'll probably go to 3.5 within the next couple weeks and he should be good to go). Beemer eats or tries to eat between 4-5oz= apr. $2.44 worth of food daily. i hope to eventually get him on raw, but right now i just want him eating, so we'll take it slowly and see what happens. :) thanks for coming to my ted talk. i know it was long and rambling, but it was nice to get it talked out. EDIT: oh my goodness, i forgot to mention. Moki's raw poops are NO LONGER STINKY!!! same goes for his farts; in fact, the only fart ive smelled from him since switching was after he had accidentally got into some kibble (naughty booooy ;) nah, stupid human left kibble out where he could find it. smart boy.) his poops are firm, fairly dry, uniform, and crumble into nothingness within a few days if they were to be left to decompose instead of getting scooped out of the litter box.

[@thingsimadeuk]

I came here to look for information about the microchip feeders and ended up watching a video with great storytelling and very lovely cats! Thanks for making the video!

[@GeraldBertramPhotography]

Philip, no idea if you will see this on this old video but I just wanted to thank you. We purchased 3 of these feeders for our 5 cats. One needed a high protein, one needed weight control and the others just a standard high quality food. Never have we been able to give them each the specific food only they needed. With this we can now and we can already see the health improvements due to them each getting their specialized diets thanks to you making me aware of these feeders. My family owes you a big debt of gratitude.

[@philipbloom]

Not an old video for me Gerald! It was the last one I made for the channel :) I am really glad they are working for you!

[@rtvstudio]

Bravo Philip, a fantastically sweet video. Greetings from a colleague in Germany - Roman

[@samjohns3227]

Wow, such gorgeous cats and what a wonderful cat dad!!! I have two rescue felines and they are my world. Nothing better than seeing animals that are so loved and well cared for, you are a role model cat dad. I have had these feeders for a few years, they're amazing....sometimes one of my cats may need some medication so it's so easy to make sure only he gets it mixed in with his food. I would never use any other feeder. My only gripe is that dirt/food does get into the very tiny nooks and crannies around the plastic which you can't remove but these feeders really are game changers. Love your videos..please give your precious cats some cuddles from me!

[@qfoil]

I know this channel is not anywhere near as active as you main channel, but please keep them coming! I have been following you for... I don't know how long because of your cinematography but when I learned how much you love cats you have become an even greater man in my eyes, as I am a cat lover myself. Seeing how much you care for your cats and all others is so heartwarming. Thank you, Philip, for being a pawesome person you are!

[@lunaandstella825]

I just love the cosy cat pile the boys make. And OMG Harriet and the vacuum bot. i laughed so hard, thank you for that.

[@donnamackenzie1088]

I also have a “Harriet”. My overweight calico is Sophie - unfortunately she has learned to wait until poor old Sid has activated his feeder, bulldoze him out of the way and quickly haul out an armload of his biscuits before the lid comes down! 😆

[@jenfreed78]

I've been debating getting one of these for awhile. I took in a stray who was a tiny, fluffy, starving, sweet kitty. It's been two years and she is now a huge Maine Coon mix who eats everything, except for the dog's food. My other two cats like to graze and my oldest (he's 16) has been losing weight simply because the fat cat keeps eating everything. Obviously I want them all to be healthy, so I think I'm going to buy one of these. Thank you for reviewing it!

[@philipbloom]

Thank you. Good luck!

[@smaragdino]

Hello!! Wonderful documentation, as always! I even watch all the freaking advertisements, which I never do in any other channel...

[@sheldonbk1]

I found the video after already having 6 of their feeders, 4 connect and 2 standard as we have 6 cats, 3 diets and 2 cats that can't eat any other food. It's a an excellent review. I find the feeders have some bugs. Even with the back plates and the fastest closer, other cats can get into a different feeder. All 6 have microchips but 3 need to wear their special microchip tags on collars as their own chips don't work consistently. One cat's built in chip works with the standard version but not with the connect version for example. Overall we couldn't manage without them but they're not perfect.

[@charmedgirl90]

You’re cats all get on so lovely with each other. I have two and one likes to bully the other. With two dogs as well it can get chaotic.

[@CB-sr8ee]

This was by far the most helpful review I have watched for these feeders. I have 6 rescue kitties, all of which need to lose weight. I’m excited to watch more of your reviews! Thank you for all the work you put into this!

[@steve_main]

I had 2 different cats on different diets and I loved the Sure Pet feeders. They were awesome and simple to use. I 100% recommend them!

[@OneManFiveCats]

They are so hard to find though. The connect version is nowhere to be found.

[@ShiekahTribe]

​@@OneManFiveCats I bought two at the beginning of the pandemic because one of my cats wasn't eating enough and the other would steal his food. Back then, they were about £60 or so (can't remember). Now, the simple version is £115 if you're lucky.

I have four cats one of which is on a special diet or, he ends up in hospital. So I need to stop him from accessing the other three cat's foods. Right now I'm going to try it with one feeder and see if I can manage. If not, I will purchase more. Thank you for your delightful video. It was Meowzing!!!

I was so intrigued and immersed watching your three litter box reviews and then this one that I can't even remember how I got to your videos in the first place (wasn't looking for information on automated litter boxes either), but boy, was it lucky that I did! Loved all of the ones I watched. The little snippets of story behind how you got each of your cats and their personality traits, while staying on topic, is great! The way you speak and include humor in your videos makes them engaging and gets a few chuckles out of the watcher. Love it! ♥

I have one who is probably 18 and has cranky kidneys, one who is 9 and super prone to bladder stones, another who is 9 (brother of bladder stone kitty) who barfs on BOTH kidney and bladder stone food, and bladder stone kitty bullies the smallest cat and keeps her away from the food. This could absolutely be a life changer for me! THANK YOU! (Although holy hell are they gonna bitch about going from free-feed to a smaller dosage...)

[@cliffordbrooks3355]

Another brilliant review. So freaking entertaining I can't stand it! Okay, I discovered these bowls in the US about 8 months ago. Bought four of the basic ones, but wouldn't you know it, they sent one of the ones with the scale. So off I went and bought the necessary hub. They're pricey, but worth every penny. After I talked about mine, my sister bought them for her two rescue kitties...one eats everything in sight and the other likes to eat throughout the day, so even if you're not monitoring how much they eat or dealing with a special diet, these feeders can be very helpful. Thanks for the great video...I will share it with other cat owning friends.

[@OneManFiveCats]

Thanks Clifford!

[@anavstube]

Hi Mr. Bloom, I discovered your channel today through the "Black with No Cream" podcast in which Valentina Vee mentioned your name and your crazy skills as a videographer. I logged in and saw "One Man Five Cats" channel, are you kidding me?? Not only a videographer, but a cat lover as well. Wow!! I am One Woman Two Cats (at the moment) kind of gal, but so far, I've watched two videos and I loved them. I'll be checking out all videos in this channel shortly. Thank you so much for loving and rescuing cats. I love Harriet so far, but I'm sure as I learn more about the rest I'll be sold as well. Cheers!!

Amazing review! Your cats are beautiful 😍 This has made me decide to purchase two feeders. I now have two different diets in my house and I was told to only feed morning and night. Both my girls enjoy grazing their dry biscuits and I don't want to change that part of their routine (both suffer anxiety) and cause them stress. Thank you so much as this gave me all the info I needed 🙂

Omg Harriet became a chonk! So cute

[@mariepython5801]

Thank's a lot for this review. I was hesitating getting one of these feeder after taking a former feral cat at home, he is just crazy about food ant it is a pain to keep him away from my other cat food, who is a super fussy eater taking 3 bites at a time... Reviews like this are helpful as a buying guide. I finally got the standard version, for only one cat (the other swallows all his food in 2 seconds!) and I do not regret it. Took 3 days for training and changed my life for the best!

[@M00Nabove]

Oh my goodness. Someone with the same 'cat issue' like us. Only we've got 7 of them. One developed incredible sensitivity to food and gets terrible bleeding skin allergy whenever he eats anything but his one special dry food. Then we have three 'large' cats whose daily portions are measured and they cannot eat more. One of the cats never eats when I put the bowls out for everyone, she comes begging for food afterwards. One is annoyingly loud and begs for food whenever anyone enters the kitchen. And of course they are not happy eating 2 or 3 times a day. So I have to put the bowls out, watch them eat and then take the unfinished bowls away 5 times a day. IT GOT TIRESOOOOME! We bought one feeder for the sloppy one who never eats at the same time as the others. This helped a lot already. Now we got a second one for those who are allowed to nibble throughout the day but will put only the anallergenic dry food in there so that the allergic cat can eat it as well. Hopefully this will make things easier. I love this feeder already, just wish they weren't so expensive. I'd buy one for each cat and be done with feeding times. :) Thank you 'One Man' for the lovely video, great quality btw - I loved the close ups. :) Your cats are lucky to have such a dedicated servant... sorry... owner... I meant owner. :)

[@MagickByte]

Thank you for this! Me and my gf are moving in together, my cat has issues with over eating. I have gotten his weight down. But now that there is another cats bowl in the mix I can't control how much he is eating, and the other cat will eat his food too when she is trying to assert her dominance. I think me and my girlfriend will be purchasing 2 of these. Thank you very much for this video, basically answered everything I had that I had a question for!

[@SwearMY]

I just got these for my cats. 5 cats, 3 prescription diets. 2 underweight, 1 overweight, 2 just right. The feeders are in training mode right now, and 4 of the cats have taken to them without an issue. My fraidy cat (who is allowed to eat anything) is working on getting comfortable with the feeder. Beats the heck out of trying to feed them in separate rooms.
