## Description

PERCT GIFT: The ureFlap Mhip Cat Door is a gat gift for pet lers and cat lover’s – making safe ses and hoes for ther cats. Thee Year Warnty.

Review: edited - issues with glass installation but I love it - The flap operates as advertised, though it took us quite some effort to force the cat through to identify the chip. As many mentioned, the opening is rather small too, but if the cat wants to go through he can, the problem is my cat had no understanding of this being something to go through. I assume a cat used to a flap of any sort probably would be easier to train, as it may understand the purpose of this thing. The problem I have is that I only can install this in a window, as there is no door to my backyard, and all glass repair specialist say they cannot cut such a circle. One even went further to say that even if they could cut it, the window would eventually break. I wish I had read the review called "I wish they would make one for humans" (on the page for the white version of this) where somebody else also reports this problem. I was also told that the only way to install this in a window is by replacing the glass with Plexiglass. (June 28, 2012) Update August 21, 2012: I did eventually decide to replace my window glass for an upper end Plexiglass version and must say you couldn't tell the difference by the light that goes through it. The Plexiglas is not rigid, and it also collects a little cat hair due to static electricity, but only who knows will notice. It took our cat about two weeks to fully adapt to the flap. He still prefers to wait for a human at the door, but he has no problem using the flap either. So far it has been completely reliable. I do not understand how some people report that raccoons can force it open. I am also very happy with the customer service. I contacted sureflap before purchasing to get some details on dimensions and needed some missing part after receiving the shipment. Both times they were very responsive. Why not 5 stars? It would be perfect if the switch would have a timer and be programable, to change from one setting to another in the morning and evening for exampele. The screws should be on the inside also. Edited January 2014 - Upgraded to 5 stars (from 4). Has been working perfectly a long time. I cannot imagine not having this for my cat. Love this product more than when I just got it. Must keep an eye on not overfeeding him as it would be real bad if he can no longer fit through it. Edited July 2016 - After three happy years, the unit started to consume an enormous amount of batteries. Instead of lasting for a year as it should, it started to need batteries every month, then every week or two weeks until it stopped working completely. During this year also the four way lock broke and the door became a little stuff and hard to push for the cat. Due to the multiple different simultaneous issues arising during the fourth year I think it can be said that the expected life of this product is 3 to 4 years.
Review: Door - Arrived later than expected but works well

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works, with limitations
*by A***Z on March 30, 2025*

I knew what i was getting into. But it ended up being harder than i imagined. One of my cats took weeks to get used to it. Actually registering the chips was easy. That one cat of mine doesn't let me touch him but i placed food inside the door (before it was installed) and he came for it. Other cats i just pushed through the door. And i did have a cat door before that they used with no problem. Pros: - a drop in replacement for my previous dumb cat door (i think the dimensions can be found in other reviews, i forgot what they were) - does keep other cats away - failsafe in a way that cats can always get out of the house, even if batteries die or anything breaks. My cats are farm cats so outside is safer for them somehow. Cons - smaller than a dumb cat door with same outside dimensions. My 1yo cats barely get through. I will need a bigger door later on. - does not keep racoons out. None of these would, most likely. The one-way ones they just pull out the flap with their hands. The ones that control the in and out based on microchip, racoon would probably just break the door. They can bend thick metal wire, very strong. I understood that it would not keep racoons out, there's always catch and relocate option for them. You cannot relocate cats. - even a cat can break in with enough force. When i had it installed backwards (more on that below), a cat got in but could not get out until he rammed the flap open with his head and all the force he got. Surprisingly, the mechanism didn't break. - some cats will be afraid of the click it makes when it opens. There's also no way around it. I had to train one of my cats by installing the door backwards. He wanted out more than he wanted in, so in the end he conquered his fear. If you can take your cat ans push him or her through the door a couple times that would be the best.
