Can I purchase two doors and use the tags to allow each cat to enter only one door or are the tags identical?

That I really don't know. I would suggest going online and calling the manufacturer to ask that question. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

The tags are keyed to each door individually, so you could program each door to admit whichever tag or tags you want - any combination.

Before using a tag you have to program the door to accept it. You can program each door to accept up to 7 tags. You can program door 1 to accept Fido's tag and door 2 to accept Toto's tag. You can also program 1 door to accept both Fido and Toto's tag and door 2 for Toto only. Doors are independent of each other and Tags are not limited to 1 door. Hope that helps.

Yes, it will work. You just need to have your cat pass through it to activate the current chip with the door.

The A frame house does not but the smaller one shaped like a dog house does. I have both and found the smaller one is sized for one cat and the A frame for two. I have these in my barn so I don't use the doors, they are attached by velcro. Love these and just bought another A frame because I like the size difference. Good luck and let me know if you need anything else answered!

Unfortunately yes they can. My 13lb cat pushes his way out all the time. My other cat is not willing to push through but with enough time she will pull both flaps open.

I don't have cats and we have a fenced yard, therefore I haven't had the situation arise. However, for a while we taped one flap up for our dog until he got use to using it. If your cats are touchy, I would think they wouldn't like to go through two flaps. Good luck!

Yes, the door has 4 states: 1. automatic(normal)- free exit and only chipped cats entry, 2. exit only, 3. entry only, 4. locked

It is a two way door. At the bottom of the door, there should be two plastic switches. One is red snd the other is green. The green one lockes the door so the cat can't get out. The other locks the door so the cat can't get in.if you push both switches to the middle, the cats can come and go. If you push the switches towards the outside, then the previous applies.

My cat is about the size of wiener dog or Chihuahua. Actually it is easier to train an animal to pass through a larger door. The taller door is not as stiff as a shorter door. The Plastic is thick and in cold weather can get rather stiff. Precious cat has no problem. If using the double door, take off one door. After pets are accustomed to the flexibility of the door, put the second door back on. Love this product.

The doors are the same side on both sides but we taped the back one shut since it is on a lighted porch. Opening is pretty small for an adult raccoon. We don't put food in the cat house so never had a problem with raccoons or other interlopers. It's a great house, we have it with the electric heating element. Our older feral sober the whole long winter comfortably ensconsed!

I didn't see that option I did however remove one of the two rings for the tag and my cats learned to lay down in front of feeder to activate. Keep heavier ring though my big boy managed to pull the tag off at one point:)

i highly recommend that you read the installation instructions before you buy. This particular model comes with a "liner" so you can install it in a typical door. The liner is just a plastic ring that connects the two sides of the door assembly so your cat doesn't drag his/her belly against the material inside the door. Most garage doors these days are made out of thin aluminum less than 0.25 inch thick. So you might be able buy the version without the liner, saving you a couple of bucks.

Yes I think a cat can open the door as the magnets are not too overpowering. My cat went in and out of our old dog door and it was more difficult to go through. This door should not be a problem for your kitties!

It is my understanding that the unit "Includes 2 RFID Disc, works with up to 8 disc." The unit had done amazingly well with our 5 semi-feral (trapped, neutered, released) cats. We used the two discs that came with the system and purchased three more with a couple of extras. The cats adapted remarkably well to wearing a collar with the disc (which is a bit larger than the usual pet ID tag) and learning how to operate the door. (The disc does have a place for owner contact information.) The cats now have access to a screened porch, heated cat houses, food and water. Most importantly - no raccoon has broken in. We are so very thankful for this product. It is my understanding that the unit "Includes 2 RFID Disc, works with up to 8 disc."

Don't even attempt to put both into one carrier. Buy 2 of the large size. Note the size, length, width, height of the large carrier and you'll see what I mean. I have 2 large ones for 2 cats.

the other one only goes down in the presence of the magnet. thats the whole point of the door, to only unlock for your cat wearing the magnet.

yes. you can have your cat come and go all day and whatever time you program the door to NOT open (to go outside), the door will lock them in.

Cat Mate makes a newer model of this door that works with the implanted chips but this one doesn't do it. it only works with the Cat Mate tags. I don't think Amazon sells it either so I can't get you a model number but it's on the Cat Mate website.
