It worked for my cat who would wake me up at 4am...I put on floor by my bedroom door...I think it's the sound that scares them...it works great on my dog too, who would come in room and bother us if there were thunderstorms... The product says you can get like 200 sprays out of a can...I don't believe that, the can was empty within a week...I reordered more ...these has last longer but my animals won't go near room now just by them seeing it on the floor so its not spraying as much...my own leg sets it off more than the animals..lol..I have gotten good at high steppen around/over it...hope this helps you!!

Yes, that is exactly why I purchased it and it did wonders. It even works to keep my cat away from my exterior door.

It will. After I started using this thing my cat stopped scratching and banging at the door.

Yes. I put it outside my bedroom door on the floor so that it points across the door if you walk through it (which also has caught me when I forget I put it out there). The cat comes nowhere near the door when he sees it, although he did initially. The door is about 3 feet wide. The can detects motion using infrared light in a straight line, a few inches wide and about 3 feet long. That's long enough to cover the standard interior door.

It does fit, but it goes right to the edge of the door... easy for the cat to get in. I still love mine. :)

I don't think so because although the bottom of the screen is weighted my dog simply goes to the side of the screen and pushes with his head. This pushes enough of the screen aside to allow him to be able to enter or exit. I think your cat would probably figure it out as well.

The magnet was pretty strong, but the cat would not use the door until I cut off the flap and replaced it with window screen. Since it is on the patio screen door, when it is cold or windy we open the glass door long enough for the cat to go out or come in. Hope this helps.

i would say no, because it works with a sensor and if you will have a door between a can and this device, how it will sens a cat?

Depends on how big your dog is. I got several to keep 2 cats off the furniture. Works very well. I also put 2 together to make a double-wide barrier to prevent the cats from entering the dining room. That also worked well

I don't use the door. I think it closes the cat in too much. Just have the cover on, so I really can't help.

Nothing except a closed door would keep my cat out of a room. He's a climber/jumper and has no problem getting on the refrigerator! If yours is not that acrobatic, try stacking two gates. That worked for us when we had a climbing dog.

My cat is only 8 lbs (at full size) and she is able to slip in and out of this door with no troubles. It took her a few weeks to get used to it, but it can happen. So the answer to this question is, yes.

It works at keeping my cats out. Also keeps me out when I forget to slide it out of the way. I would say yes for your dog although mine has never tried.

No, it doesn't stay on that tight. But there is a lip on the lid, so it won't slide off easily if they bat at it. Not sure how crafty your cats are! They'd have to lift the edge to knock it off, then would have to get the roll out.

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.

Maybe, however our door takes 10 to 15 seconds to re lock once my dog uses it. It worked great keeping our cat in while letting our dog go in and out for almost a year till our cat learned to listen for the door to unlock so he could make his escape. An even bigger problem is that once out, there is no way for the cat to get back into the house.

There are 2 pieces of plastic about 2" long with a lip on the end, if you want to stop dog or cat from going in or out you slide them in the slot on the bottom of the door. There is one slot on each side of the door if you don't have them you could find or make something to work in place of them.

Yes, just by stepping on it, which is why I couldn't use mine for awhile till my cat got adopted. Of course I would imagine once it went off and scared them they would stay away from it...but you know how cats are

no,not at all. It'll stop a door from swinging closed in a wind or for a door installed unlevel that tends to swing on its own.

I have caught armadillos 20+ lbs with room to spare so the size of the trap should be no problem. The trip plate is far enough away from the trap door that when the door closes it should not hurt your cat.
