Would my cat be able to get through this gate? That would actually be helpful for us. Thank you.

no..the bars are too close. My cat just jumps up and over....or if you have a large dog? you could raise the bottom of the gate to where the cat can crawl under..but the dog (baby?) can not..

I guess it would depend on if the cat was strong enough to push the flap open and get the food. I have a small-medium cat, and in my opinion, this wouldn't work for her. Sorry. Maybe you could prop the door open for the cat.

I don't have cats, but our daughter has a small dog (10 lbs) and she is able to go through the door just fine. It just has a magnetic strip attached to the rubber/plastic door.

The cat would have to be pretty small or pretty persistent to wiggle through. My cat has never tried to squeeze through. The largest openings aren't that big and more towards the middle on my screen, so the cat doesn't even try. I'm sure a younger cat could try, but would probably knock it over before getting through.

Probably not. The sides don't attach directly to the door and if you have a curious cat it wouldn't work as is. You could try some velcro strips on the sides.

I am going to say no. I have a medium size cat and its a bit tight. Probably should go to the next size for a dog. That said these are very nice doors and are fairly sturdy.

This really would not work for pets that way, but cats tend to have a higher vertical clearance than most dogs. So your cat may be able to just jump over the gate, unless you have a big dog.

Yes your cat will be very safe and will not be able to escape, has a clip down on outside so you cat will be unable to open it from in side.

It should work, one of ours is about 14 pounds and he goes through just fine. The only issue I have had with this door is that the flap is tinted. Our cats used to chase each other through the door into the garage. The first time I slid the hard door down to block off entry, one of my cats slammed into it full bore. Now they all check it with their paw first!

I love this gate. I got it because my beagle could climb the shorter gate we had... No more climbing now! I have a standard size chihuahua and he can not fit through the gate.... His head got stuck once and we adjusted the distance where it mounts. I also have two cats and one of them can fit through it, but she is very slender.

have large door. cat can go in and out of it with no problem. average size cat. A lot depends on the personality of the cat rather than its strength.

No, if a small dog can go through it and a small baby then a cat will be able to go through the door unless it is locked with the locking partition.

I would say if your cat doesn't jump high it would work great! I have 2 smaller dogs and I use it as a separator for the family room and dining area. The door works fantastic to go through.

I don't have a cat but personally I think it would be super easy for your cat to push through the screen opening and get out.

Cut a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" hole in a piece of cardboard and see if he can get through. It might be a tiny bit taller than that, but no wider. The door flap makes the vertical space smaller than it looks. My cat loves it, but she's tiny (7 lbs).

cat would not be able to fit thru bars. But it certainly can jump the gate!

The mechanics of the door make for very smooth opening and closing--in fact, the design is patented. But it's also a little heavier than the conventional pet door. I think a cat could push through without much difficulty, though I haven't actually seen one doing that (we're an all-dog household). You might want to contact the manufacturers and see what kind of feedback they've gotten from the cat people out there.
