Introducing the Cat Mate Microchip Cat Door from Closer Pets!
Perfect Size for Most Small to Average Sized Cats
The Cat Mate Microchip Cat Door features a flap size of 5.5 inches by 5.5 inches, making them ideal for most cats and even some smaller dogs. This versatile sizing ensures comfortable entry and exit for your pets, accommodating a wide range of breeds. Designed with both security and convenience in mind, these doors provide a perfect fit for your pet's needs.
Easy-to-Use Rotary 4-Way Lock
The Cat Mate Microchip Cat Door features a versatile rotary switch that offers four modes: locked, unlocked, out only, and in only. In unlocked mode, any animal can exit, but only pets with a programmed microchip or I.D. disc can enter, ensuring security. The in-only mode prevents exit while allowing programmed pets to come inside, making it perfect for keeping them safely indoors at night.
Program with the Push of a Button
The Cat Mate Microchip Cat Door is designed for simplicity with a single program button, making it easy to set up and manage your pet's access. This user-friendly feature ensures hassle-free programming, allowing you to quickly update your settings. Additionally, the LED Indicator Light flashes every 30 seconds to alert you when the battery is low, so you can maintain uninterrupted operation.
Durable, Rigid Flap with Magnetic Catch
The Cat Mate Microchip Cat Door is equipped with a transparent, durable rigid flap designed for long-lasting use. The flap features brush weather stripping and a magnetic catch, ensuring it securely returns to its proper position after each use. This combination provides excellent insulation and protection from drafts, keeping your home comfortable.

Door works as described but jeeze - why not make it a bit larger. My cats (3) all struggle to get through this tiny opening.

Works excellent! Packaging and the flap door’s see through protective plastic wrap must be all removed, and it must be vertically straight for the flap door to close properly. Otherwise the installation and programing is fairly easy. I installed it through the garage wall and added a regular flap door on the outside for better temperature control, and the two flap doors are very effective even in below freezing weather.

Lo bueno es que está bien hecha, de material de primera calidad y el detector de RFID parece funcionar bien.Lo malo es que es algo pequeña incluso para gatos medianos y el control de la puerta no tiene la opción de habilitar la libre entrada sin chip RFID, toda entrada es forzosamente con chip (la salida si es libre, sin chip)

Compré estos para hacer cápsulas de comida para mis dos gatas. Fueron fáciles de programar y funcionaron muy bien durante aproximadamente una semana. Ahora, una de ellas no registra el chip a menos que Prosecco esté en la posición EXACTA en la que quiere que esté. Está frustrada por no poder entrar fácilmente y viene a buscarme para que pueda ayudarla. No puedo saber si el lado de Amaretto tiene problemas porque está loca y ataca la puerta para entrar. También compré comederos automáticos de comida húmeda refrigerada más los gabinetes y construí todo, así que estoy bastante invertido (tiempo y dinero) en que esto funcione. Estoy esperando un reemplazo y el precio subió desde que compré hace un par de semanas, así que eso también es muy frustrante.

Just be handy with the tools necessary for installation.We trained our cat to use his door by mounting it on a large Amazon delivery box from a separate purchase. A little cat nip and he was in and out without any apprehension.

The battery life is a little frustrating but for the price point it’s fine. I have used these to make feeding zones for my cats for a few years and this review is going on the 4th one I’ve purchased. I just had the second one die completely. When this happens the cats are locked out entirely and you’re left with a door that won’t function at all even after replacing the batteries.

This is really an ideal product for indoor/outdoor cats in rural areas. It offers a set it and forget it solution to make sure your furball can go in and out, but raccoons, possums, skunks, and other cats can't. My kitty took to it pretty quickly. Just tape the door open for a few days so they can get used to the idea that it is a portal to the indoors, and then lower the door in stages over a few days so they get used to the flap. Set up was simple and the instructions were easy to follow. The only tricky part was installation. Since we put ours in the wall instead of the door, we had to do a little carpentry to make it fit, but it wasn't too bad. In all fairness, we did opt for a non standard installation, so that's not the fault of the manufacturer. The door has been reliable, and has not had any problems or issues for us or for our kitty.

We have two Bengal tom-cats and if you know them, you know that they are much more independent, stubborn, and defensive than a standard pussy cat.The new electronic flap door is to be installed between inside and outside - that is we have to cut a hole between these two worlds to fit the new flap door into that hole.Therefore we needed to make sure of two things: a. that it operates as described and b., that our cats accept the door as well as their standard cat door (not chip-operated) that we have already installed between two indoor rooms.To avoid expensive mistakes we clamp-installed the new door in a sliding door to our deck, which is, so far, their standard door (operated manually by us many, many times by day and by night). The opening gap above was closed with a taped-in piece of plywood.The new flap-door was activated as per printed instructions accepted by them both cats. They did not hesitate to potentially use this door and - after activation - used it to get in or out but not reliably in both directions. The opposite direction was not allowed by the door (whilst correctly set for "in and out") after they went through once.This may be an activation mistake or something else not under our control. Whatever it is, we do not dare cutting a hole in a wall or door for a cat door that does not work reliably.The proposed alternative option to operating the flap door with a collar switch to be applied on in/outdoor cats, which are already chipped with the veterinarian standard US chip does not make sense to us. Actually, we think a collar on an active outdoor cat is dangerous because they could strangle themselves when getting stuck in a fence or similar.We observed the following while activating:Once the cat had their head deep enough in the tunnel, the red light switched to blinking (read the chip). As per instruction, we pressed the command button but there was no indication of success (as the blinking turned off or switching back to a steady red). The instructions don't mention any such feedback of success either, which seems odd. The blinking kept going for an hour and then the system shut off.Conclusion: We determined that the door is not reliable and it will therefore be sent back.

for anyone looking to create "food pods" or similar for cats with different dietary needs, IT WORKS!i was able to cut it down, following the instructions, to fit both a very thin door and another unit fits a pretty standard size door -- i did not need an adapter.speaking of size, my diabetic furbaby is a Big Boi but is able to squeeze through, though he is very very food motivated and is willing to put in the effort. the others are fairly normal size cats and fit very comfortably.note that this unit does not come with any collar tags, so if your cat isn't already microchipped you will need to get one of the Cat Mate ID Disks per door like me -- they are not small, but don't seem to get in the way too much and work just fine. can confirm for anyone that this unit will read 125 kHz rfid codes, and the ID Disks use 125 kHz as well 👀chip-training is fairly straightforward, and you are rewarded with a not-loud but not-quiet ka-chunk when the mechanism successfully unlocks. my cats seemed confused by the noise at first, but now are not bothered and even seem to use it to confirm when they can push their lil faces into the door.the sticky-outie tunnel part must face OUT of whatever you are controlling entry for, so in my case i have it sticking out of the food pods, and the control dial is inside the pod. the controls aren't super intuitive, but just leave it on "unlocked" to bar entry for nonchipped cats and allow any/all cats out. i literally had to sit there with a collar and mess with it until i figured this out, as the instructions aren't super helpful.it needs many batteries. it will use rechargeable ones, but apparently the low-battery alert light only works with the nonrechargeable ones due to the difference in voltage -- this remains to be seen, but i assume it will work as advertised and will update if otherwise. i also am using a camera inside the food-pod to monitor eating, so i figure i'll see the light that way since it isn't visible from outside the unit in my configuration.the unit is white -- pictures make it look gray or something, but it looks nice and white in person 👍 the door is also significantly tinted, which i think prevents distractions to whomever is eating but i suppose it could be a pro or con depending on your use case.overall super pleased with the price ($79.99+tax) and functionality (allowing me to separate food stations inside my house).

Nice, a little small for an adult cat.Work well.The only problem for me, it cannot be locked to go outside when you have 2 cats and only one should go outside. It’s always unlocked to exit.
