Sure pet care - pet entered?

Hi! I’m trying to automate playing a doorbell sound whenever my cat enters. Her state might already be “Inside”, in case we let her out of a door, so I cannot simply react to the state change. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there… So you want to track your car or cat while it enters?

Hi :slight_smile: Definitely my cat! Edited the typo, thanks

does your cat have an presence detection devices like bluetooth beacon or so now?

They have a smart cat flap, hence the title being about smart cat flaps

Does it have any information about which direction the flap opens in? Otherwise you might need a motion sensor on the inside or outside of the cat flap?

Are you using sure petcare integration.

I’m not sure how to find that information! Looking through the examples, I don’t see any way to achieve what I want? Might just be due to me not understanding home assistant/yaml very well

Yes - it’s configured correctly. My question is how to trigger my actions with the information available from the plugin

I am also interested in this.
I have literally just set up the SurePet entities.
I will be doing some experimenting in the coming days but I am a newbie when it comes to Home Assistant therefore experiencing a steep learning curve. :sweat_smile:
…and typically Harry (cat) is fast asleep at the moment and I really want him to help me with my SureFlap integration experiments. I wonder if I can shove his head through the catflap without waking him!? :rofl:

@LDMaughan @Kensingderp Did you install it. it says it has data points on registered animals entry and left. i dont have sure petcare to try but can help to set it up. You first need to install this and see what are the data outputs.
