Cat Mate Large Cat/Small Dog 4-Way Self Lining Door

I have an extra large cat (16lbs and stands 19" tall) and this was a perfect fit for his bigness with room to spare. The door is easy for the cats to push open and makes a soft noise when bouncing back into place. If you have not experienced the convenience of a catdoor so your cats can move gracefully into their designated box area, I would recommend you try it.

The litter box is on a screened in porch. Our kitten was 6 months old at the time. When she meowed to go out we would gently shove her through the door. This was morning and night for a week. It was a pain but worth it. The door closes flush 90% of the time. This doesn’t bother me as it’s from our kitchen to a screened porch. I live in Atlanta so our winters are mild compared most elsewhere. My husband installed this and confirms the door needs to come off the hinges to do this right. He tried doing it with the door on and quickly figured out it wouldn’t work. Our door is 2 inches of solid wood. I bought the install kit to go with it. It wasn’t necessary but nice to have.

Our cats instantly took to using your product. The first day they knocked all of the door lock tabs off from using their front claws to launch themselves through the opening after they check the coast is clear from a sitting position before they proceed through the door.

So happy with this purchase! It was a snap to install, looks great and it has solved two major problems: the dog getting into the finished basement where the cat litter house is and having to let the cat in and out when she needs to go down there to do her business. Love this door!

I purchased two of these doors and had them installed in the bedroom doors of my house. Now my cats are free to roam the house and I can sleep in peace! No more scratching at the door or clawing the carpet. I should have done this years ago!

This was more involved installing in a metal door but we got it done. Now, our cats won’t use it! We have tied up the flap to leave it open otherwise they won’t go in or out. They will just have to get use to it !

We ordered this door from Chewy when a major online sales merchant sent us a cheap imitation, and not the Cat Mate door that we ordered from them. This door feels solid, and fit our door opening needs. If I have any negatives to say about it, I'd prefer an easy way to remove the swinging door temporarily, while the cats get used to going through this new opening location. We ended up just taping it open for now, and the cats are using the door access with no issues. Chewy delivers everything we order so quickly, customer service is Wonderful, and you always get the exact product you order.

My last cat door lasted longer than the door did! I checked out several models, some in the "hundred $ and up" category. Surprisingly, the one that seemed the best to me was only in the $20.00 range! And guess what!!!¡¡ It was the same exact cat door I had before!! Looks like I won't be needing to replace it for another 19 years!

This is one of many pet doors we have used. It was really easy to install in our outside shed. It is airtight so the cold weather does not get through. Only four stars due to the fact that I am not too sure my cat can push through the door as the magnetic catch is very strong! Other than this, the size of the door is perfect for an average cat and it is well made.

I like the hard plastic door so it's easy to see through and better to open with a little pressure!
