SureFeed and SureFlap: Complete Sure Petcare Guide
Compare Sure Petcare’s microchip feeders, cat flaps, larger pet doors and connected products by the problem they solve—not simply by the model name.
Start with the problem
SureFeed microchip feeders
Both feeder versions restrict access to an authorised pet and can hold wet or dry food. The Connect version adds portion guidance and feeding-history monitoring through the Sure Petcare app, but it needs the Hub.
SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder
Designed for multi-pet homes, prescription diets, weight-management routines and cats that graze slowly. It focuses on selective access without app monitoring.
- No Hub required
- Wet or dry food
- Training mode for gradual introduction
- Good first choice when another pet steals food
SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder Connect
Adds portion weighing and app-based feeding records. It can help owners notice routine changes, but consumer monitoring does not diagnose illness or replace veterinary care.
- Requires the Sure Petcare Hub
- Wet or dry food
- Portion guidance and feeding history
- Useful when monitoring intake matters
SureFlap cat flaps and pet doors
Not sure which door fits your household? Use our complete SureFlap model comparison for a side-by-side decision guide covering size, exit permissions, Connect features and Hub requirements. Choosing between the two non-connected flaps? Read SureFlap Standard vs DualScan. For a bigger cat, use our Pet Door vs Pet Door Connect guide.
SureFlap Microchip Cat Flap
The straightforward model for keeping unfamiliar cats and wildlife outside. It recognises authorised microchips but does not provide individual exit permissions or app control.
SureFlap DualScan Microchip Cat Flap
Relevant when one cat may go outside while another must remain indoors. DualScan reads a cat on entry and exit so permissions can differ between pets.
SureFlap Microchip Cat Flap Connect + Hub
The smaller connected flap with app monitoring, remote locking and per-pet entry and exit controls. This listing is the useful bundle because it includes the Hub.
SureFlap Microchip Pet Door
The larger non-connected model designed for large cats and small dogs. Measure your pet and the installation opening carefully before ordering.
SureFlap Microchip Pet Door Connect
A larger connected option for large cats and small dogs. The linked listing does not include the Hub, so budget for it separately if you do not already own one.
Connect products and the Hub
The Hub links compatible Connect products to the Sure Petcare app through your router. One Hub can support multiple compatible devices, but always confirm the current product requirements and bundle contents before buying.
Sure Petcare Hub
Buy this separately when your chosen Connect listing does not include one. Do not add it twice if you are purchasing the Cat Flap Connect bundle above.

Frequently asked questions
Is SureFeed the same company as SureFlap?
Both product families sit within Sure Petcare. SureFeed covers feeding products, while SureFlap covers microchip-operated access products.
Does every Connect product require a Hub?
The connected products covered here use the Sure Petcare Hub. Some listings include it and others do not, so confirm the selected bundle before ordering.
Can these products diagnose a health problem?
No. Feeding or activity records may help an owner notice a change, but they are not diagnostic tools and do not replace veterinary assessment.
Will Amazon redirect international visitors?
The links use Amazon’s international matching. Depending on the country and availability, Amazon may show the exact product, a local alternative or local search results.
