PetSafe® Microchip Cat Flap – gives your cat or small dog up to 8 kg free access outdoors, while preventing entry by strange cats and other animals. Access is granted via your pet’s microchip and the flap is also cold-resistant.
With advanced selective entry technology, the PetSafe® Microchip Cat Flap is designed to give your cat easy access to the outdoors while preventing unwanted cats and other animals from entering your home.
Using radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology, the flap recognises your cat’s unique ID microchipwithout the need for a collar or accessories. When your cat approaches the flap, it responds and allows entry only for them. The flap remains locked and denies access to cats that are not programmed, as well as wild animals, pests or stray cats.
The flap also features a practical manual 4-way lock, allowing you to control access for programmed cats.
