Why it matters
The 360 reads 15-digit ISO microchips, or Cat Mate ID discs on a collar for cats without a compatible chip, and admits up to 30 cats. Four settings cover in and out, in only, out only or fully locked.
It self-lines doors up to 3 in thick; walls thicker than 2 in need the wall liner (308W) and adapter (362W), sold separately. The cut-out is 173 by 198 mm (about 6 7/8 by 7 13/16 in), suited to small to medium cats and small dogs.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Unchipped or mixed-chip homes
- Up to 30 cats
- Small to medium cats
Look elsewhere if
- Doors too thin for the frame
- Cats larger than the opening
- Owners who can't cut the door or wall
Pros and cons
Pros

Cons

Limitations to weigh
- Measure your cat's widest point and the door or wall thickness before cutting; check the cut-out size on the maker's template.
- Confirm your cat's microchip number and standard before buying; a vet or a scanner can read it.
- Walls thicker than 2 in need the 308W liner and 362W adapter.
