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. They are very practical
because they give more freedom to your cat while at the same time saving you the
trouble of opening the door every single time.
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
Attention to Thieves
It's important to make sure that installing a cat door doesn't make it easier
for burglars to break into your house by uninstalling them or by any other
method. 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.
Cat flaps are not considered to be big enough for a burglar to be able crawl
through, but obviously they are a good size for a potential thief to get his
hand through and gain access to your keys if you leave them dangling in the
lock, or close by on the side
Not Your Cat
By having cat doors in your house you are potentially allowing all the cats in
the neighbourhood to come in to your home, which may not be something you are
happy with. If you want to avoid this situation, you can do so by getting a cat
flap that is activated with a collar worn by your cat, thus making sure that it
will only open for your ct.
These cat doors normally are locked with the use of a magnet, in such a way that
any other cat will not be able to open the door, even if it pushes it, as the
magnets will hold it in place.
cat flaps will let your cat come in and out as it pleases without your help. If installed properly, they won't represent a safety risk. There are even some cat doors that will only open for your cat.
