Cat Training

If you decide to have a house cat you may want to consider investing in one or two cat flaps depending on the size of your house. Cat flaps are popular because they let you continue doing what you were doing without having to interrupt it just because your cat wants to go out again.

You may need to consider having them fitted by a professional builder or workman, depending on what your door is made of, as it is important to get a good fit, to ensure that the cat door remains water tight, and is fitted in the correct place

Careful with Burglars

One of the important safety points to take into account is to make sure that the installation of cat flaps won’t make it easier for people to break into your house when you’re not at home. That why a lot of people prefer to place cat doors in the lowest part of their doors, which also lets the car get in the house by walking through it, instead of having to jump or climb.

Although of course, nobody expects a burglar to shrink to the size of a cat and use the door to get in, if cat doors were a bit higher, they could try to use them to reach in and go for the handle.

Other Cats in the Area

Even if cat doors won’t let burglars of thieves break into your house, the neighborhood cats will have no trouble at all getting into your house, something that you might want to consider. A simple way to get around this problem is to have a cat flap with a locking system, which identifies the cat by a small tag, added to his collar.

These doors are locked by magnets, which are rendered inactive by the presence of your cat’s collar; however, they will keep the door shut even if another cat tries to push it.
