Many people have started getting their cats microchiped so that if they are lost they can easily be returned home if their microchip is read. For those of you with microchipped cats, you also have the benefit of using innovative products like the sureflap. The sureflap is a microchip cat door, meaning a cat door that checks for a microchip before it allows an animal to move through the door. This way, if a stray cat, possum, etc try to come in the sureflap it simply won’t open to allow them in. I remember a few times as a kid where we wound end up with a neighbors cat in the house, thankfully racoons, possums and rabbits stayed out. The sureflap is compatible with all national standard chips and can run off of four AA batteries for up to a year. Additionally, there is a manual lock which allows you to keep your cat in or out. This is a great feature for people who like to know that their cats are all inside at night, or for keeping your cat inside if you know there is temporarily a stray dog in the area, etc.
Buy it: You can purchase the sureflap online at sureflap.com or various other retailers including amazon.
Win it: One of you will receive the sure flap microchip cat door! Retail value 149.99.

SureFlap tunnel extenders can be used to create a longer approach tunnel to the SureFlap Microchip Cat Door when it is installed in a wall.

the SureFlap Microchip Cat Door can remember up to 32 different cats at the same time – more than enough for most people’s lifetime!
Even if you exceed the limit of 32 cats, the oldest codes are replaced first. There is also the option to wipe the memory if you mistakenly program in the wrong cat.

I actually own this door, and it’s amazing! It works just like it says – we lock our cats in at night, but they have free run during the day. It makes them so much less destructive in the house, knowing that they have freedom.
