Did this door swing both ways? Okay for kittens?

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. :)

yes it swings both ways, it is magnetic on the bottom it is a nice little door. I think it would work fine for kittens

Yes out and in. You can tape it open until they figure it out. shouldn't take them long

It does but I think it would be tough for kittens. I took it off mine. I just use it inside though so I can keep the dogs out of the room where I keep my cat boxes.

Yes there are sides that meet inside the opening. I got for the cats & it is a tight fit for them. If you have large cats get next size up. This cat door is great! Bought a different brand with hard door & couldn't get it to 1- fit our exterior door & then cats couldn't open it.

The door opens very easily with one hand. The opening is VERY wide and can easily be walked through normally. I especially like that the door swings both ways, which makes it easier to walk through in both directions.

The top door hangs open to an angle. I find it very easy to get cats in, and out at the vet when they don't want to come out. If the cat is very large and grabs onto the top door it might be hard, but I have not had any issues with it.

Yes. For our 3 cats, who don't mind sharing, we have taken off the swinging door & the clips that hold the top & bottom together. So it's just a matter of removing the top, clean, then put the top back on. The clips are only necessary if you are moving the whole thing. Hope that helps. ;)

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!

The door swings both ways. You can also install it so the hinges are on either side simply by turning it around in the mounting brackets.

I flipped the outer flap down on one side. I also turned the level just below so my cat could jump inside. She loves it!

It is an opening, no door. I have 2 and both of my cats use them with no problems.

I'm trying to remember and I know there was only one door but it seems like there were windows all the way around. It is very cute and soft and bigger than I anticipated. the animals are not too difficult to push in and pull out.

Yes the door swings in both directions, the big top deflector is ridged, but the two smaller deflectors are very flexible.

I think it depends on the size of the cat. The latches on the doors are small and a big cat may be able to push the big door open part way. This would be excellent if you add extra, sturdier door latches.

Nope. My cat caught on how to use the door faster than one of my dogs. I like that, but if you have a strictly indoor cat, it won't work.

The door can be mounted on either side and the door itself just flips over to accommodate the hinges on the opposite opening. I recall that the instructions show this.

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 door would be able to swing in or out but the rail would prevent it from side to side swinging. I purchased a roller guide for the floor to keep the door in place as it is opened or closed. It is designed to open like sliding closet doors except there is only one panel instead of 2 or 3. Hope that helps.

In my experience, it was far easier to load our lunatic kitten (five pounds) into this one than into a regular-sized carrier with only one side-load door. We were able to do a two-man operation and slip her in. If you're corralling two kittens, put the sane one in first, then the psychokitty. That's what worked for us.
