Can the cats break into it?

My big cat breaks into everything and so far he has not been able to open this one.

The lid is very secure and should not be a problem. So far, my cats have had no issues and do not have a reason to break into it or knock it over. It is best to always keep it filled up halfway so there is enough weight to hold it down (in case it is somewhere that a cat might be tempted to knock it over).

It is so easy for them just to put their paws up inside the feeder, that I don't think they would even try. the plastic lid on top is pretty tight, so they couldn't get it off.

No. I don't think so. The lid fits pretty snug. The entire feeder seems very durable.

Not unless they are massive! :) My daughter has this for her 65 pound dog and her cat doesn't bother it. The food is down in the bowl as shown in the picture but as far as the food in the hopper its safe..

Well its open from the bottom so they can eat from it but I don't think a cat could tip it over

My two cats have never been able to break in. (And one has thumbs!) The most I've seen is one stick his hand up the chute and shake out a couple pieces.They've also never been able to topple the thing. The base is pretty wide, and I had mine against a wall, so it would've taken a lot of effort to get it all the way over.

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.

I have two large cats.... as long as a cat can get it's head through, they can get through.

Probably not. Once our very clever Poodle managed to get her head through a corner and get stuck and we had to stop, extricate her and re-attach the barrier. There are spaces around the edges that are slightly larger. Cats are smaller, more persistent, and "slipperier." I would assume they could get through. I really think transporting kitties requires a cat crate or carrier. That's how we move ours around.

It kind of depends on how rowdy they are. I put a latch between the handles to keep my dogs in. But they back off after testing it. They could possibly force there way out of the bottom but it would take quite a brave cat.

It is big enough, however, if the cat has claws it could rip the netting and get out. It is more for dogs, because their nails aren't as sharp.

the 2 plastic flaps are magnetized at the bottom so its KIND OF a push to get thru. im sure if a cat wasnt intimidated by it they could certainly get thru.

If the cat sticks its head in the entrance it unlocks. No time delay so it will probably work.

Yes they could. I highly recomend this climber. easy to assemble and the cats love it. I think a older cat could enjoy this very much.

As far as I've read on the instructions, the level that the magnets operate at is adjustable. I would think that the cats would be able to get through.

No, the front opens where the opening is for the cat to enter, it's quite easy.

The critters COULD knock it over if they tried, which they haven't. The dogs could even jump over it easily, but it hasn't occurred to them yet, either. The gate is going across a big double-door to my second bedroom, preventing the dogs from raiding the cat litter box (disgusting creatures that they are). Just to make sure, I sandwiched one side of the gate between the wall and a heavy object, in this case the bucket with the litter. On the other side, I just folded out the extra leg a bit to give it stability. Have had the gate for about 2 months now, no problem. The cats hop right over it.

I doubt cats would go for it. The magnets keep the flap pretty secure, so an average cat would need some sure footing and real determination to get through.

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.

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.
