PetSafe, Microchip Activated Cat Flap, Exclusive Entry, Easy Install, 4 Way Manual Locking, Energy Efficient, Draught Excluder, Convenient - White

bought one in June 25 , my cat did at first find it strange , was reluctant to use it, she got better, this year march 26 something strange happened to the cat-flap it stopped opening from outside :-( . contacted Petsafe direct we had a good understanding of the problem and with 3 weeks i had a replacement. :-) the cat-flap does work well , glad we bought it. Thank you Petsafe for your prompt response.

Excellent and the dark brown is very discreet in the glass panel. However the correct setting, my cat refuses to come back in . Hopefully she will figure it out… at least no more neighbours cats eating her food!

Good product, double lock good.Our previous one had centre lock, which had a nuisance cat break. Easy to install. Only criticism, delay on locking when cat enters house, if a cat is tailing your cat, the tailer cat can enter, as takes about 7-8 seconds to lock. If your cat is of nervous dispersion, the lock is quite noisy, just to be aware.

Easy to install in existing circular hole in a glass door without the adaptor, though some of the black sealing tape for the double glazing does show (see photo, highlighted it in red), so if you are bothered by aesthetics, use the adaptor. It has two locking mechanisms which makes it more secure than most other designs which have just one mechanism on one side. there is also nothing for cats to grab on to in order to pull the flap open. Some people have mentioned a cold draught round the door of the flap, yes, it is there but makes no difference to the inside temperature as the air leak is so small. It makes a loud click, which is off-putting to one of our cats but it hasn't stopped her from using the pet door. It feels solid and has been worth fitting, the only cat ingress to the house has been when one of ours comes in slowly and leaves the flap partially open. Adding some weight to the door has largely solved that.

Finally got around to replacing the manual cat flap with this automatic one and it was a complete waste of time. Followed the instructions closely, registered my cats microchip to the sensor by "persuading" my cat to put his head through it before it was installed - took a while as it was hard to get him into a position to read the chip. Got the confirmation from the device that the microchip was successfully registered, the lock opened and I was good to go. So I then installed it, confident it would work, however it didn't. When my cat approached from outside, he put his head in the tunnel, the LED turned green to say it detected movement, however that was it - he pushed his face right up against the flap and it still didn't read the chip. My cat is quite large, around 6kg, so maybe this cat flap just isn't suited to the larger cat as the chip doesn't get close enough to the sensor to be read in day to day use.

Worked perfectly with petsafe cat flap also purchased

I found the Cat Mate Microchip Activated Cat Flap (360) very easy to set up. Registering the microchip was straightforward, and the installation into a wooden door was a breeze thanks to the included paper guide — a really helpful touch. Functionally, it does exactly what it promises: keeps out uninvited neighbourhood cats and only allows registered pets inside. However, size-wise, it may not suit all cats. My cat, a 4.5kg male domestic shorthair, had some trouble getting his back legs through the flap comfortably. It seemed just a bit too snug for his frame, and we got some memorable videos of it. On the other hand, my sister's Turkish Angora had no such issues, so she’s now happily using it instead. It’s a great product if your cat is on the smaller or average side. For longer or taller cats, I’d recommend looking into a slightly larger model — which I did, and now my cat uses his with no trouble at all. Still, this is a solid, well-designed flap that does its job well. Just be sure to consider your cat’s size before purchasing.

I wasn’t sure how my cats would take to this, but I need not have worried. They both tried it out before I had finished installing it and are happy that a neighbour’s cat can’t gain access. Fitting was straight forward.

Chat, vraiment très facile à installer et vraiment très bien. Cela fait plusieurs années que nous l’avons et elle n’a pas de signe de faiblesse. Il faut changer les piles régulièrement si vous adapter avec une puce au niveau du cou pour le chat.. mes chats n’ont pas aimé cela car le déclenchement l’fait sursauter lorsqu’ils sont devant. Donc nous avons désactivé, mais la chatière fait toujours son travail. Nous sommes très contente de notre achat. Installer sur une porte de garage

I purchased this product as a replacement for an existing pet door because we were regularly getting raccoons in house (eating pet food and whatever else they could find). Installation was a bit more involved in my case due to different size of the existing cutout in the laundry room door, but this was unrelated to the product itself. I was able to successfully match to our cat's chip, though that did take a little doing; I definitely advise programming before installation (as the instructions suggest) because cats generally don't like being shoved into an opening and help there while the reader reads the chip - easier when they are lying on a bed, etc. The real challenge I had was that the local raccoon population figured out how to get through the door more quickly than my cat. I'm uncertain whether they are able to get their claws under the edge of the door and simply pull it open, but that seems most likely. We are back to locking the laundry room door at night and letting the cat out at 2am when he cries. The product otherwise functions as promised; in our case at least it simply didn't provide the security we were hoping for.

Works as it should.

Funciona muy bien y el desbloqueo no es brusco, no me ha costado trabajo enseñar a mi gatita a cruzar y ahora sale feliz y yo más que me tranquiliza saber que no entrarán en casa otros intrusos.

Kedilerimin bahçeye çıkması ve sonradan rahatlıkla eve girmeleri için bir kac tane aldığım ürün. Kedilerin çipini tanıttıktan ve kedilere öğrettikten sonra hepimiz mutluyuz. Boylelikle kedi kumunu evde tutmanıza gerek yok. İstediklerinde kediler dışarı çıkıp halledebiliyor, bahçede dolaştıktan sonra acıktıklarında eve girebiliyorlar. Sokak kedileri kapı açılmadığı için dışarda kalıyorlar. Bahçe ya da zemin katta oturan kedi sahiplerine tavsiye ederim
