The PetSafe Magnetic Cat Door is a good option for keeping your cats in and others out, but it can be finicky with alignment and tricky for some cats to master.
Works well in keeping neighborhood cats out and inside cats in
Users mention that this door also helps to deter intruders such as racoons.
Users recommend if the cat can be trained to not be phased by the magnets it should still work if trained approperly
The magnet has to be too aligned to make the door to open
Cross alignment of the magnets is not possible if your cat's head does not align with it perfectly.
Yes, the door has been seen to have issues with alignment, but has positional availability for medium and large size cats.
"We have an outside cat that will not come inside because of our dogs. We made her a little house in the storeroom using this product. We didn't want other strays to be able to come in and bother her or spray everywhere. So now she goes and comes as she pleases and doesn't have to worry about intrude..."
"The cat wears a small magnet that droops from the collar. The magnet must contact the magnet that is located on the inside of the cat door for the mechanism to open. Unfortunately, the magnet on the inside of the door is about 1/4 of and inch wide in diameter so there is no margin for error..."
It's a solid choice if you're looking to keep your cat contained, but be prepared for some initial training and potential frustration.
