I assume the door swings both ways; is the door substantial enough to block urine from seeping past it for cat that stands?

If you use the new Arm & Hammer Clump & Seal along with this product you shouldn't have a problem.

What I can tell you is that with my cat, there is no problem, does not pass urine and odors have decreased dramatically. I am very happy because a non-neutered male, it smells very strong. This moving door has greatly helped to keep odors inside.

The door is not seal at all. Even the smell is not gone 100%. It is good for keeping the sand inside when the cat scratch and dig

I believe the door swings both ways. I took the doors off of mine. I have big cats. I don't know about blocking urine.

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.

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 flap is pretty heavy and held in place magnetically. My cat passed away before we purchased the door, but I couldn't imagine her being able to push through it.

The door does swing both ways. it swings easily, the only resistance is the magnetic catch. I honestly don't know if it would work for a kitten. The flap is a heavy duty flexible plastic. Not sure a kitten would be strong enough to get it to move. Kittens can be very persistent though. I wish i had one to test it out for you. :)

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.

Not much. The shelves will keep the door from opening completely because they will bump against the wall, but it still opens most of the way. Here are some shots of my cats enjoying it:http://professional-geek.net/personal/files/html/doorshelves.htm

The bubble does a full rotation, counterclockwise. There is a pair of square hotels to with a spring loaded door for the waste to fall through. So depending on where he sprays, litter may or may not go over the spot to soak up pee. And the cat might actually spray outside the bubble if he aims high enough toward the front. It's not really tall enough for a full grown cat to fully stand to pee though, so he may adjust his position to accommodate. If anything, this thing is super easy to clean. I took the bubble portion out back and hosed it down, then towel dried it. Hope this info helps. The bubble does a full rotation, counterclockwise.

Yes. Of course. The door has this function specially designed for cats in an ill condition (by example: a postoperative) when it's best to keep them attended into the house. As the Operation Instructions Manual indicates, the door has four (4) access settings: 1.-IN AND OUT. 2.-IN ONLY. 3.-OUT ONLY and 4.-LOCKED.

Yes the tube in the center has a whole big enough for cats to walk fully through. But if this is Rolled where the hole is on the ground and you can't see the cats so you have to make sure it's pointing in the direction that you want them to be able to use it. Also it makes a crunching sound when the cats walk through it so if you do have cats that are scared of noises this may take time for them to trust in useing it. Over all we are pleased we bought it. It is constructed in our eyes very well.

It does have door openings on both ends. I would remove the plastic kitty door so air can circulate. I guess if it was too hot, they wouldn't use it.

The cat stand next to the door. It is cute, but not heavy enough for our door. I had to return it.

Yes I use mine to keep my cat from pushing the screen out. Its a decorative look on the door

It does but it's designed to swing in and allow your cat into the box then when they push up against it to swing out. I don't know if that helped much more but it isn't set up for the cat to pull it forward with their paw to enter, they should push against it to get it to swing in and same thing on the way out rather than pawing it toward them it's designed to have them push against it to get out.

The flap easily swings both ways, EXCEPT when you accidentally place the top back on backwards. I did that once because the snaps line up no matter which way the top is turned. But the flap is not able to freely swing when it's on backwards. Also, my cat had never experienced a swinging door before this one, so I took the flap off for the first couple of weeks until he got used to the box itself and then added the swinging door on a Saturday morning when I would be home all weekend to see how he did. He was a natural!

Yes, your cats can get out through the door. Some people use these doors for their cats. I know someone who uses the item for both their cat and dog.I love this door tremendously but your cats would use it also most likely.

I think most cats would be able to sneak through the bottom corners. The opening on the bottom corners is a little bit wider. Also, all cats I've ever owned could probably jump over this gate.
