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 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.
…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!?
@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.
