Smart Microchip Reading Cat Flap
I bought this just over 2 weeks ago because local cats were visiting too often. The cat flap is very sturdy.
Our cat is frightened by noises and initially would not come in. There are some very good custom modes. I set it to inactive until she was happy using the flap. Then I set it to a 10 second delay after activation. She soon got used to that and now we are free of visiting cats. The unit remembers all custom modes so you need to clear them before setting new ones. e.g. unit inactive

Worth every penny
We bought one a year ago, and have only had to change the battery recently. It works perfectly, is easy to use and has managed to keep the local bully cat out of our house. The curfew is great peace of mind as we keep our cats inside when it's dark. We trained our kittens how to use it in about a week after neither of them having been outside before, and both being quite shy. I was originally worried that the smaller one wouldnt be able to manage the door, but she copes fine.

Excellent
We had awful issues with other cats coming in and terrorising our boy, but this has changed everything. He took to it really easily (he’s pretty laid back), and within an hour was using it like his old one. He’s far more confident and knows that he’s safe now and we finally have peace of mind that we won’t come home from work to find him cowering in the corner. I highly highly recommend.

Pure heaven
Hip hip Freedom for me and Porsha. I thought there was going to be a problem with the clicking sound as she's a bit nerve, but no she took to it. It's nice and roomy. She is a bit of a plum as she scratches the window instead of using her nose, as if it's the front door. But she gets in in the end. For freedom it's worth it's weight in gold

Freedom
Thank god for this beauty. My cat hated being locked out, so I had to keep door ajar. This cat flap is so easy to set up, my cat took to it straight away, at first she kept using her paws, then the penny dropped. It's good quality, the clicking sound isn't that bad, had off been loud my cat wouldn't of gone back near it. I recommend it due to easy set up, good quality, click fairly quiet, roomy and the freedom your cat has

Very good for big cats
My cat is 9kg, really big and yet he gets through this cat flap! We haven't yet activated the detection with the chip, for the moment the cat flap is set to "normal".

Couldn't do without it anymore.
I've ordered a second one. The old one broke after about six years. I have two cats and I think it lasted well. They got used to it surprisingly well, although the mechanism is quite loud. It was funny to see how many strange cats desperately tried to get in.

Absolute must for all cat owners !!! 1000 stars
This cat flap is simply the best! I can operate the flap from any country, and when I am on holiday I feel happy about my cat. It is a huge help for my cat carer who knows when my cat is in the house and needs to be fed. My cat can't go out in the night and spends it at home. We've had this flap for almost 1 1/2 years. Modern technology like this really makes sense. Good instruction manual, good hotline, everything is good! Lotti the cat also says thanks!

Ideal for our cat.
At last our cat can come and go as she pleases, without waking us up at night or when we're not at home! It took several days of training to get her to open the door by herself, but once she could do this there were no more worries. We waited a little longer to switch to the different settings progress is good but slow. One thing - the price of the extensions...

Works brilliantly
Set it up easily with my 2 cats . Just put some treats in the tunnel. Stops little Paddy from next door but one stealing my cats food. Sweet little cat but Greedy

Very good
Easy to instal, works as described. Our relatively small cats didn’t take long to learn to use it. It does click so if you have a cat who objects to snappy / clicking noises it might be an issue, but ours will sit next to us while we use power tools so it was no problem for them. Best of all, the big bad bully cat who kept coming in and terrorising ours is now kept out. Highly recommended.

Be careful if you have very large cats
I have used these for about 6 years, have 4 cats & 3 feeders, they are all on different diets. One will eat nothing but biscuits - sadly. One on a renal diet, one on a normal elderly diet & have just rescued a skip diver, counter surfer dustbin cat.
My Maine coon cannot use his properly. He has a very long neck & because his microchip is between his shoulder blades, it won't recognise it until his head is out the other side of the arch. It then opens & he panics running off with it around his neck. I could use the rfd tag, but, he has never had a collar & feeding him on the hall windowsill at the top of the stairs that only he can reach, seemed an easier option. They are rather large & tricky to clean, especially if your cat eats like a rotavator! Very good item that does save you money as less waste from spoiled food.

Good cat keys :-)
It's the first flap for my cat and it seems that he liked it. At first he wasn't sure what to do but he got used it if within a few days. It's big enough for bigger cats (mine has 5 kg) and well made. Setting up and chip learning is a piece of cake. It needs 4 'C type' batteries to work (not included). The noise it makes when opening/closing is quite loud so may frighten some cats at the beginning.
I would recommend it, but I have it just for two weeks.

Great for big sized cats
We have a 9 kg old cat and he likes this flap. Easy use and really big.

Very happy
Bought the pet door to replace our old sureflap microchip cat flap when we moved recently as we wanted the curfew automatic open & lock function. So far very impressed and happy. Easy to install into our upvc door, easy to programme and simple to use. Thought the cat be a bit hesitant at first but no, she was in and out within 30 mins. (I guess the hard work of training happened with our last cat flap). allows entry after the curfew lock time has passed.

Very good flat with several useful functions
Very good product with several different modes. My two timid cats are very timid and they were scared to use the flap because of the click sound. Started off using non-microchip reading mode, then moved to maximum delay option. Now they use the flap happily without any hesitation. Highly recommended.

Worth every penny!
We had previously owned the standard sized SureFlap microchip cat flap for several years, but decided to purchase this larger model due to our small elderly arthritic cat having trouble squeezing through our previous flap comfortably. This flap is everything we could have hoped for, and our cat is so much more comfortable! It has an exceptional range of different modes, including 2 modes that extend the time before the flap locks again after opening, which is really useful for nervous cats.

A better size for our cat and with many very useful features
I bought this as a replacement for the SureFlap Cat Flap I fitted a year ago as the opening on the Pet Door is usefully higher and a bit wider for our smaller medium sized cat and also good size to look out from to check it’s safe the other side. It also has many other very useful benefits, such as custom modes for timid cats and further protection against intruder animals mode and many other benefits, especially for multi-pet households. Our cat and we are very satisfied with the Pet Door.

Microchip Catflap
This has changed our life ! seriously ! for anyone who has other cats coming through their Catflap then this is for you. We installed a couple of days ago and it is brilliant. Our cat loves it as no more unwanted guests and he used it straight away. Very, very clever how it works and worth every penny
