ZeroMOUSE 2.0 AI Prey Detection Extension for Microchip Cat Flaps

Stop your cat bringing mice, birds and other unwanted guests into your home with the ZeroMOUSE 2.0 Smart Cat Flap Extension.

ZeroMOUSE 2.0 is an intelligent AI-powered prey detection system designed to retrofit compatible microchip and RFID cat flaps. Using artificial intelligence and infrared night vision, ZeroMOUSE checks your cat as they approach the flap and can recognise prey such as mice, birds and lizards being carried in their mouth.

If prey is detected, access is refused – helping keep your home free from the less-than-welcome presents your cat might otherwise bring indoors.

Designed for 24-hour day and night operation, ZeroMOUSE 2.0 uses infrared night vision to continue detecting prey after dark. It is weather and splash resistant, scratch resistant and controlled through a free app.

Best of all, you don't necessarily need to replace your existing microchip cat flap. ZeroMOUSE 2.0 is designed as a retrofit extension for a range of popular cat flaps from SureFlap, Cat Mate and PetSafe.

How Does ZeroMOUSE 2.0 Work?

ZeroMOUSE 2.0 uses AI image recognition to analyse your cat as they approach their existing microchip cat flap.

The system is designed to recognise prey being carried in the cat's mouth, including:

• Mice
• Birds
• Lizards
• Other prey recognised by the AI system

When your cat approaches without prey, normal access through the compatible cat flap can continue.

When ZeroMOUSE detects prey in your cat's mouth, it prevents the flap from opening, leaving your cat – and their unfortunate catch – outside.

This provides selective prey detection without limiting the system to just one cat, making ZeroMOUSE suitable for multi-cat households too.

What Do I Need to Use ZeroMOUSE 2.0?

ZeroMOUSE is an extension for an existing compatible cat flap rather than a complete standalone cat flap.

To use ZeroMOUSE 2.0, you will need:

• A compatible existing RFID/microchip cat flap
• A stable Wi-Fi connection in the area where the cat flap is installed
• A USB power supply rated at 2A or higher
• A suitable USB-C cable
• An outdoor-suitable cable where required, such as one without textile sheathing

USB plug and USB-C cable are not included.

Day & Night Prey Detection

Cats don't restrict their hunting adventures to daylight, so ZeroMOUSE doesn't either.

Integrated infrared night vision allows the AI recognition system to operate both during the day and after dark. This means ZeroMOUSE can continue checking for unwanted prey when your cat comes home during the night.

Smart App Control

ZeroMOUSE 2.0's functions can be controlled through the free app, giving you convenient control of the system from your smartphone.

A stable Wi-Fi signal must be available where the cat flap and ZeroMOUSE unit are installed.

Ideal for Multi-Cat Households

ZeroMOUSE 2.0 can provide selective access control for any number of cats, making it particularly useful in households where several cats share the same compatible microchip cat flap.

Instead of simply restricting which cat can enter, ZeroMOUSE adds another layer of intelligence by checking whether the returning cat appears to be carrying prey.

Easy Retrofit for Existing Microchip Cat Flaps

Already have a compatible SureFlap, Cat Mate or PetSafe microchip cat flap?

There's no need to replace the entire flap.

ZeroMOUSE 2.0 has been designed as a retrofit extension, allowing the prey-detection technology to be added to compatible existing RFID cat flaps with straightforward installation.
