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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

In the past I have stayed with a friend, and we both have cats. Hers is on a particular diet, mine isn't but should not eat his food containing his medication. So we each had a feeder. With the current lockdown we are obviously staying at our respect homes, and there are no more visits. However we are continuing to use the feeders. One added bonus, both cats eat soft food which can a) attract flies and b) go dry. Using the feeder prevents this completely. My daughter has now bought one for her cat precisely because it keeps the food fresher for longer! Less wastage all round.

I just found your channel through the litter robot review and thought I leave a comment on this video even though it’s 2 years old😅 I have two cats and one of them went on a special diet last year so I bought the sure feed connect because of that and I really like them. One of my cats tends to steal food so even though they are both on the same diet again I still use them. I have the same problem with the amount of eaten food being way of on some days and I think I know why it’s happening with my cats. One of them tends to go back to the empty feeder multiple times to check if there is anything left and anytime it opens the feeder says that 2g were eaten even if it’s already empty so that can add up during the day.. Also the first feeder I got was faulty and just wouldn’t weight the food. Customer service ad sure feed was super helpful and first gave me a list of things to try to fix it and after those didn’t work they immediately send me a new feeder. I know it should always be like that especially since the feeders are so expensive but since it’s sadly not always going that smoothly I thought I’d share it. And on a side note I really enjoy your style of videos! You can tell how much work you put in every video!

I had a surefeed a few years ago, when you needed the separate collar tag, for my kitty's wet food so my doggos wouldn't eat her food and was pretty happy. When I moved and the dogs stayed with my ex and I kept the cat, I got rid of it. When I finally got a second cat who had food security issues, I had to buy another one because Morrigan (new kitty) would try and eat all of Annie's (old kitty) food - to the point of making herself sick. Amazingly, even though it had been years, Annie still remembered how to use it and learned quickly how to get her chip to be read by it. Morrigan was constantly puzzled why she couldn't get it to open LOL Now that my sweet Annie passed at 19yo and I'm looking at a new cat to be a friend for Morrigan, it will be very important that the new cat will have protected food! There are some cleaning issues, but I removed the silicone strip in between the panels - for me it's fine that it is not "sealed" - and it is better that way for cleaning.

We have had the standard model for 6 years now and have run into most of the things you have described. Our biggest issue these days is our own "Harriet" called Luca. He is a stray (a very cuddly one) and indeed behaves the same as Harriet does. Trying to limit his food brings out the genius in him though and he keeps finding ways around the feeders that separate his and Piran (his black furry buddy) food. At first he would go around the back (before they had the fitting back covers). So i made a wooden box around the feeder for our other cat. It stops him from grabbing food from the back at least. Quickly he learned there are other ways. These days he will push his brother aside and hold the lid open with his head if needed. His brother will happily allow this while eating his wet food (and Luca devouring Pirans dry food). I have not found a solution yet, but have been thinking of making some sort of a "door" or "funnel" system on the wooden box construction limiting the access to food to 1 cat only. What i miss is the forced close if another cat is detected while the normal guest is eating. If the drawer then closes, the "owner" of the food would quite quickly learn that his brother is why he cannot eat and tell him off. At least the weighing would help me see if both eat enough (Piran has IBS and can have periods of little eating and lots of throwing up, catching that earlier would be nice).

Always when I see your videos I deeply feel how I miss cats in my life. My wife is extremely allergic ... so I'm a bit lost. I had my last cats for more than 18 years before they went to sleep for the last time, and after that I became "cat-less", which I really don't like at all. But what can I do. My wife still fights against living outside the house ;) Surefeed: I'm sure I would buy it - even with one cat (... I would never choose to only have one cat ...). A luxury version with cooling would be great - just in case.

@@OneManFiveCats Yes, at be beginning. I would have never been wiling to give the cats away. But they were pretty old ... and since then I'm "catless". Really miss cats in my life. For many reasons you cannot describe.

This is one of, if not the most enjoyable review I’ve ever watched. The production value is amazing, very lovely cats, and enjoyable narration! I’m looking forward to your catio video!

Thank you for the review. As there don't seem to be any similar products on the market that can do this with wet food (I found two that do dry food only!), I think your review is still relevant 3 years later. I'm about to adopt a second cat while my first cat has food allergies, so it's good to know that this works out well. Also thank you for explaining the training modes and showing how to clean them. My Bella is an extremely messy eater so I will have to deal with this, no matter which bowl she eats from. Thankfully I don't need the app but I can totally see from your video why someone would have great use for it.
