SureFlap XXL Microchip Pet Door

I bought this just over 2 weeks ago because local cats were visiting too often. The cat flap is very sturdy. Our cat is frightened by noises and initially would not come in. There are some very good custom modes. I set it to inactive until she was happy using the flap. Then I set it to a 10 second delay after activation. She soon got used to that and now we are free of visiting cats. The unit remembers all custom modes so you need to clear them before setting new ones. e.g. unit inactive

We bought one a year ago, and have only had to change the battery recently. It works perfectly, is easy to use and has managed to keep the local bully cat out of our house. The curfew is great peace of mind as we keep our cats inside when it's dark. We trained our kittens how to use it in about a week after neither of them having been outside before, and both being quite shy. I was originally worried that the smaller one wouldnt be able to manage the door, but she copes fine.

We had awful issues with other cats coming in and terrorising our boy, but this has changed everything. He took to it really easily (he’s pretty laid back), and within an hour was using it like his old one. He’s far more confident and knows that he’s safe now and we finally have peace of mind that we won’t come home from work to find him cowering in the corner. I highly highly recommend.

Hip hip Freedom for me and Porsha. I thought there was going to be a problem with the clicking sound as she's a bit nerve, but no she took to it. It's nice and roomy. She is a bit of a plum as she scratches the window instead of using her nose, as if it's the front door. But she gets in in the end. For freedom it's worth it's weight in gold

Thank god for this beauty. My cat hated being locked out, so I had to keep door ajar. This cat flap is so easy to set up, my cat took to it straight away, at first she kept using her paws, then the penny dropped. It's good quality, the clicking sound isn't that bad, had off been loud my cat wouldn't of gone back near it. I recommend it due to easy set up, good quality, click fairly quiet, roomy and the freedom your cat has

It's the first flap for my cat and it seems that he liked it. At first he wasn't sure what to do but he got used it if within a few days. It's big enough for bigger cats (mine has 5 kg) and well made. Setting up and chip learning is a piece of cake. It needs 4 'C type' batteries to work (not included). The noise it makes when opening/closing is quite loud so may frighten some cats at the beginning. I would recommend it, but I have it just for two weeks.

We have a 9 kg old cat and he likes this flap. Easy use and really big.

Bought the pet door to replace our old sureflap microchip cat flap when we moved recently as we wanted the curfew automatic open & lock function. So far very impressed and happy. Easy to install into our upvc door, easy to programme and simple to use. Thought the cat be a bit hesitant at first but no, she was in and out within 30 mins. (I guess the hard work of training happened with our last cat flap). allows entry after the curfew lock time has passed.

Very good product with several different modes. My two timid cats are very timid and they were scared to use the flap because of the click sound. Started off using non-microchip reading mode, then moved to maximum delay option. Now they use the flap happily without any hesitation. Highly recommended.

We had previously owned the standard sized SureFlap microchip cat flap for several years, but decided to purchase this larger model due to our small elderly arthritic cat having trouble squeezing through our previous flap comfortably. This flap is everything we could have hoped for, and our cat is so much more comfortable! It has an exceptional range of different modes, including 2 modes that extend the time before the flap locks again after opening, which is really useful for nervous cats.

amazing product, works perfectly with my 2 cats. Easy to use, cats learned quicly how to get out and in. Keeps unwanted visitors away so residents can feel comfy and safe at home.

I bought this as a replacement for the SureFlap Cat Flap I fitted a year ago as the opening on the Pet Door is usefully higher and a bit wider for our smaller medium sized cat and also good size to look out from to check it’s safe the other side. It also has many other very useful benefits, such as custom modes for timid cats and further protection against intruder animals mode and many other benefits, especially for multi-pet households. Our cat and we are very satisfied with the Pet Door.

This has changed our life ! seriously ! for anyone who has other cats coming through their Catflap then this is for you. We installed a couple of days ago and it is brilliant. Our cat loves it as no more unwanted guests and he used it straight away. Very, very clever how it works and worth every penny

Bit wary when I bought this item - for 2 large cats - but certainly did exactly what it says on the box. One of my cats not at all keen because of the loud click the catch makes but when re-set delay to maximum he was OK with it and over time I was able to reduce the time delay on the locking mechanism to default. Certainly reduced the stress levels in the house! Just moved so need to get another one!

Don't waste your money on a "magnet controlled" flap from a different manufacturer (clunky, unpredictable, badly designed). The SureFlap flap WORKS. The clicks did not put off my cat - she found the newness of the flap a little stiff at first. But she got it within 2 days. The 10 second delay option has been brilliant, giving her a chance to keep trying until the flap opens.

My two cats - who were both used to using cat doors - hated the clicking sound of the lock and refused to use the door at all. We disabled the microchip reader and it still took a week of treats to encourage them through it. After another week, they were coming and going without hesitation. We then re-introduced the microchip reader, but with an additional time delay before the door locks, and they are both using it without any problem. Our intruder can no longer enter to steal food and sleep in our lounge! Great door. Love the curfew mode.

all I can say is I love it and it works on the animals microchip which is really useful as my older cat keeps losing her collar so a collar tag is useless for her. I also use the timer so both her and I know that once shes back after curfew shes locked in until it releases automatically in the morning at the time I set. No more waking up in the morning on Sundays to let her out!!!! yipee.

This cat flap is amazing, very happy. It is so much easier for our large cats to get through, and no harder for the tiniest one either. In terms of installation size, there isn't a huge difference but the cat door is so much bigger. Also has more options than equivalent "normal" size one. TAKES TYPE C BATTERIES (not included).

Very very impressed with this item. Works brilliant and my cats n dogs git used to it very quickly. Would defo recommend the larger size over the cat flap version

My 3 cats became very stressed by an intruder coming and eating their food. They were also very wary of their garden too as a result. And the whole situation wasn't helped by the onset of Firework Season. So I invested in the SureFlap pet door. As it was smaller than the previous flap I had to have the PVC panel on the back door replaced which added to the cost but never mind. 3 days later Alice and Linus have no problem at all going out or coming back in. Dylan can get out OK but is still scared of the clicks so hasn't yet managed to get in. (He was 8 months old before he mastered his ordinary cat flap, so technology doesn't come easily to him!) But he will get there. The only problem I had with setting up was that I put the batteries in upside down…..

Installed in the garage wall with tunnel extensions. Not too noisy. I was worried my cat might be scared to use it because of the thickness of the wall and the click when it opens, but no, he used it easily. You can set it to open mode at first (without chip lock) so the cat gets used to it. I chose this size of cat flap, not because my cat is very big, but because of the tunnel—I thought he'd be more comfortable, and I don't regret it.

At first I had to practice a bit and it took a few days for my cats to figure it out, but now it works brilliantly and takes so much stress off all of us. I chose the larger flap. I have a Norwegian Forest Cat mixed with Maine Coon and apparently a purebred Maine Coon. In any case, I think the size is perfect for both of them and I’d definitely recommend going for the bigger flap if you have larger cats. And yes, the mechanism is actually a bit noisy.

I already have a "SureFlap Microchip Pet Door" between the house and the barn (works perfectly). The other pet door (same model) is between the barn and the outdoors, to keep unfamiliar cats out of the barn.

The first one we bought turned out to have a door that was too small for our biggest tomcat to comfortably get in and out (he became a bit of a square cat—temporarily—when squeezing through). Door number 2 was the brown pet door with chip reader (works really well), which we installed in the door leading out to our barn, so it’s snow-free outside even in winter. Even our big tomcat is really happy with it now. Door number 3 is the same as number 2, but will be installed in one of the barn’s two entrances (possibly a fourth door later on).

We’ve bought this product before and were very happy with it! The cat flap is worth its price and we’d buy it again anytime! By the way, our “old” Sureflap lasted almost 15 years. 💪🏻👍🏻😉

I've had this cat flap for 5 years now. I've never had any problems—only my cat can get in thanks to his microchip. It's true that it makes a bit of noise, but it's not annoying, and you know when your cat comes in or goes out. I don't use the programming feature because I don't need it. The size is just right for a big cat. I'm very satisfied, it really makes life easier for everyone 😉
