Can my cat or dog get in and out?

Yes! And, Yes! We have 1 dog and two cats. All the animals were hesitant to go through and it took a little bit to get them to understand the process. But, with some GREAT treats, you stand on one side and have them on the other, and coax them through. It's amazingly easy for them to 'break' the barrier, it's just new to them. TREATS!!!

it splits in the middle easy. my dog has not gone through it by her self yet.but she is a wolf dog and does not like something new. but I am sure she will.

Hi Todd! Thank you for your inquiry. We've actually heard back from many customers whose pets love our #1 Best Screen! Some dogs/cats may be confused at first but eventually, they get a hang of it. I hope this helps!

I use it for my dog. It took me opening and leading him through a couple of times, now he comes and goes as he pleases. This is the only reason I have this product. Mine is several years old now and has ripped (because my glass door was closed and the dog was scratching trying to get in - not through failure of the product). I will now order again to replace my first one.

The door is plastic, and so are the latches. They operate from the inside. Security is relative. This door will probably keep out raccoons and such, but you could kick through the door. If you are worried about human entry, don't put the cat entry within reach of the door knob. That way a person can't break the cat entry and reach in to unlock your door. I wouldn't worry about an animal defeating the latches and plastic cat door. By the way, I have a medium sized cat and a medium sized door, and there have no problems at all.

You can, I have. The only problem is getting your cat(s) out of the enclosure.

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.

There is a plastic panel that slides in from the top to prevent access to the door. It will stop your cat or dog from running in and out but will not stop someone from breaking in.

That's the idea, however, my cat was smart enough to figure out the door has a 15 second delay after the dogs came in or went out, so he would escape and and up stuck outside.

I would suppose it would depend on how aggressive your dog is in getting access to the box. Your dog wouldn't be able to access it through the opening as the "stairs" go up and around; however, he/she could stick his nose in and try to dislodge the top of the box. The bottom of the box has a narrow edge that fits into a channel in the top. One of my male cats is quite large and hasn't been able to dislodge it going in and out of the box. My dog would stick her head in the other box litter box we had before the Booda Dome, but she seems to leave both Booda Domes along. I can't promise your dog won't find a way in, but the Booda Dome definitely makes it more difficult. Hope this helps!

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.

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.

They can be trapped just like a dog but most domestic animals don't use their paws to retrieve foods. Cats would be more at risk.

May be yes for a kitty. The magnet which keeps the door closed can be pushed open easily. I think if a bigger cat crawls under the door it might push the door open instead of crawling through under it.

No, only a small pet door that can be left open or shut. It is easy to get in and out for an adult as one section obviously opens. I can reach in and pick up my 14-pound Pekingese. No problem!

a cat should be able to push it open -- however, I found that the unit was poorly designed and constructed -- it fell apart for me and I ended up throwing it away -- I would not recommend this pet door -- hope that this helps

I took a twentyfive pound cat for a stroll so I am sure you can put in a small dog inside as well. Hope this helps.

Only if your cat can open a door. I have had 3 cts but they could not open house doors.

unfortunately there is not. but i tried other things such as putting a small child gate in the window that expands but my dog would just jump and push the child gate and window screen and take off chasing a cat.
