When the motion toy is caught, does it make a click-click-click sound or is it quiet?

It is quiet when the motion toy is caught. This is much better than the Cat's Meow toy. We had one of those and it broke in less than one day. The cats love the SmartyKat. They play with it every day. We've had it well over a month and it's still working fine.

It is quiet when caught and shuts off after a few seconds if the cat doesn't release it. I have tried several types of this toy and this is by far the best. It has lasted over a month of hard play. They others broke in less than a week. Plus you can use AA rechargeable batteries.

It's quiet. My cats love this toy. It's only real downfall is when they hold on to the caught toy for too long (which doesn't seem very long), it shuts off. I'm assuming that's to keep the motor from burning out.

It could click because it is still trying to move. Then, as the cat stops it, it will shut off and you have to start it up again. I have had some success with this toy, but the motor burns out quickly and the toy stops working, but my cats love it. I have already replaced 6 of them. It is better than Cat's Meow and all the rest.

I have a Persian cat, so it gets caught up with hair, around the moter, so once a month I take it all apart and remove hair, LOL and yes it does click, just because it is plastic on plastic, for the rotor

I cannot detect any noise at all from the door. There is a flexible seal around part of the door which seems noiseless and the catch is a non- engaging magnet. Mine is in a door to the garage which means it is not in a silent environment but I am unable to detect any sound from its operation.

It definitely makes a click sound when the flap swings down. It is not silent. I don't think it is that bad though and that our meowing cat is more annoying.

Yes it makes a louder noise...for safety reasons. But if you hold the push button in and turned, then it doesn't really. I would only find this necessary to do though if I needed to be in stealth mode. My kids learned that the sound of the gate related to going up the stairs so they would come running. It was actually nice though since I had triplets and it was a great way to get their attention. I LOVE the gate, by the way.

It's silent if you turn it on without movement. If you let it oscillate, you might hear it move, but it's still nearly silent even then. I'm not sure I hear it even when oscillating.

Haven't noticed any clicking from mine, but then I'm not always in the particular room in which we use it. Is it like an electrical snapping sound, or more like a trickling water sound?

Thanks, but I'm not talking about the clicker. The newest model (came out about 3-6 mths ago) has no sound at all with the clicker off. The older version does have a soft clicking sound even with the clicker off. Just trying to find out which one these are before buying. Thanks.

no its actually a pretty loud click. my wife has asked a few times, "what's that noise?" We've gotten used to it.

There are slight clicking sounds when opening and closing it but I wouldn't consider it noisy.

There is a very, very, very faint click when the magnet moves close enough to trigger the switch inside it, but you have to be right next to it and on a dead calm day to hear it. If you are talking a noise to alert somebody that it was triggered, then no.

No. It's silent. There is a blue light on it that will turn on or flash which can be distracting in a dark room. But it makes zero noise.

hi,No it doesn't make any sound! But the child can actually ride it and it moves forward like a real horse... the mechanism is all mechanical ...so no batteries required! Great toy!

To me the click if fairly light, but not so quiet that your aren't sure if you clicked it or not.

No, but in settings you can assign a sound to the lock feature so you can hear a click.

The answer is yes and no. When you initially begin the process of opening the board it is very quiet, however, one the boards ratchet mechanism is engaged to establish the appropriate height level chosen, you will hear a somewhat loud clicking sound.
