Why it matters
Wordcam sizes this flap for cats up to 25 lb, with an inner opening of about 7.87 x 8.66 in. A rotating 4-way lock sets in and out, in only, out only or locked.
The frame is strong ABS and the flap high-strength acrylic, built for interior or exterior use. A full-size cutting template makes installation easier in doors, cupboards or garages.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Large cats
- Interior or exterior doors
- Budget buyers
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
- Large opening
- 4-way lock
- Template included
Cons
- Any cat can use it
- Plastic frame
- Larger cut-out
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.
- Prop the flap open for the first days and reward your cat for using it; most cats learn within a week.
- A flap that opens for any cat can let neighbors' cats and wildlife in; selective flaps prevent that.
