If you have an outdoor cat, a cat door can give your cat the freedom to come and go as it pleases, while also offering weather protection for your home.
Things to Consider:
Modern, Safer Version – Pet doors are more modernized than they were in the past. Today, you can find pet doors that offer controlled entry and exit. A magnetic cat flap is programmable to allow your cat to come in or out as they please, set to allow outdoors access only, set for entry only into your house, or can be locked completely to any access.
Interior Use – A cat door can also be an attractive solution if you need to give your cat access to a closest or smaller room. By installing a cat door, you can place her litter box in a closet or laundry room behind a closed door without locking your cat out of the room.
Regional Weather – If you live in an especially windy area, you might want to consider buying a larger, heavier cat door, even if you have a small cat, as it will provide some additional wind resistance.
