Is anyone's cat able to break into it?

I have a very large 18 pound male cat that hasn't been able to break into it. We've been using this feeder for quite a while and are very happy with it. It's helped us keep this cat on a diet and lose 4 pounds.

Yes, my 7mo kitten broke into it within 3 hours. Solution: i drilled holes into the lid and outer base, put wire through holes to keep closed. Make sure the wire doesn't touch inner bowl movement.

Not mine, but a particularly motivated cat with some heft behind it might... Mine opens doors and still hasn't figured it out after a few years of daily use, so I'd say its highly unlikely...

Well is not impossible. I have three cats and up until now they have not done it. :)

The mechanics of the door make for very smooth opening and closing--in fact, the design is patented. But it's also a little heavier than the conventional pet door. I think a cat could push through without much difficulty, though I haven't actually seen one doing that (we're an all-dog household). You might want to contact the manufacturers and see what kind of feedback they've gotten from the cat people out there.

no - I would say an 8 lb cat can still get inside it. The Ball on top comes off easily though -

The cat would have to be pretty small or pretty persistent to wiggle through. My cat has never tried to squeeze through. The largest openings aren't that big and more towards the middle on my screen, so the cat doesn't even try. I'm sure a younger cat could try, but would probably knock it over before getting through.

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.

A mouse would have to be able to jump, hit the door and get in at the same time. Somewhat doubtful particularly if there is a cat on the other side. A raccoon or opposum could get in if it was not too big. Mine are located in doors leading into my tack/feed room and my shop. I've had coons get in but no other animals. They do lock so you could lock it closed if your cat was in for the night.

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

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.

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 comes with two doors to keep the insulation and if you just used one door a cat might be able to push it open.

Not that I can see. You could raise it off the floor so the cat could get under it. I can't imagine my cat not just jumping/climbing over it

I'm sorry, I don't think I can make a recommendation either way. I don't think a cat could get in, but then again they are pretty smart, especially when tasty fun treats are involved.

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

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.

have large door. cat can go in and out of it with no problem. average size cat. A lot depends on the personality of the cat rather than its strength.

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