Cat Flaps – Favourite Cat Flap Features
A cat flap, in principle is a very simple concept: A hole in the door/wall/window that allows your pet cat entry to and exit from your home.
For very obvious reasons, the cat flap has needed to evolve in order to prevent all the cats in the neighbourhood from congregating in your living room and greeting you for breakfast when you come down first thing in the morning!
And, boy have they evolved! Not only can you keep the next door neighbour's cat out but also any MI6 super spy that may have craftily utilised the cat flap as a point of entry. Let's not get into why James Bond may have wanted access to your home!
Reflecting the range of cat flaps now available, the prices also vary quite considerably, where you can pick one up for as little as around £10 or upwards towards the £100 mark.
Here are some of my favourite cat flap features and what they really mean and what you may find when looking for a pet door at the pet store:
- 4 way cat flap – Now this could get very complicated and very confusing and potentially destabilise the whole structure of your home. I mean how many ways does a cat want to go? Okay, what it really means is that the cat flap has 4 functions, namely, "only in", "only out", "locked" and "unlocked".
- Electromagnetic cat flap – The idea behind this variation is to only allow your own cat or cats in and out of the flap by having a magnetic key attached to the collar of the cat, which opens the flap as the cat passes through. Great idea and it obviously works but one would imagine you wouldn't want the magnets to be too strong, or your cat might be in a proper flap for a long time!
- Elite Super Selective Cat Flap – You see, this is the James Bond stuff I was talking about! This one has all sorts of crazy features and can be individually programmed to monitor up to 8 different cats, which ones are allowed out, which ones aren't, which one went out last, which one went first and even prevents other animals from getting in, such as foxes, racoons and giant squid!
So, as you can see, there is a cat flap for every cat and every cat owner, some of them will even allow small dogs to use them!

My dog had hematoma surgery. Ear flap keeps refilling. Took him back to have it drained but it's full again?
What else can be done? He's miserable.
"If a dog or cat is very relaxed and easy to handle, the fluid can sometimes be drained via a needle and syringe, without and sedative or anesthetic. Sedation is usually advised to do the job properly and with minimum stress. Once the fluid has been drained, a steroid (dexamethasone) is injected into the space where the fluid had accumulated. This technique only has approximately a 50% success rate though - half of these animals will refill their hematoma again, and need surgery.
Those animals whose ears fill up again after simple drainage and a steroid injection, require surgery. Surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and involves cutting away a strip of tissue on the inside of the ear flap, and placing stitches to close the gap between the cartilage and the skin, eliminating the space so that it cannot fill up. The stitches are removed 10-14 days later."
