Description
PetSafe Staywell Classic Magnetic Cat Flap is a cat door with a magnetic opening system that provides your pet with freedom and independence. The cat flap can be installed in doors, walls, or windows, allowing your pet to come and go at any time. You won't need to interrupt your activities to let your furry friend out and then watch for their return to let them back in. Additionally, this model features a lock to prevent unwanted animals from entering.
The Staywell Classic Magnetic Cat Flap has 4 opening/closing options, controlled by a dial:
1. The flap is completely closed (setting 1 on the dial) - the cat can enter the house but cannot exit (setting 2) - the cat can go outside but cannot come back in (setting 3) - the flap opens in both directions (setting 4).
Thanks to the unwanted visit lock, the flap allows entry only to those cats that have a special PetSafe Magnetic Collar Key. The key - a tag that should be attached to your pet's collar - is included with the flap. When the cat approaches the entrance, and the key comes close to the bottom edge of the tunnel, the magnetic mechanism there will unlock the flap. This rule applies only when the animal is entering the house (exiting does not require a key). The set includes 1 tag, but for those with multiple cats, additional tags can be purchased separately.
Around the edge of the flap and the opening in the frame, there are magnets that keep the flap in place, preventing excess air from entering from outside. The Staywell Classic Magnetic Cat Flap can be installed in brick walls and wooden, metal, PVC, and UPVC doors, as well as in glass doors and windows. Installation is straightforward, and a special cutter and screws are included in the set. If you plan to install the flap on a thicker wall or door, this model is perfect as it has an integrated tunnel 6cm long. Both the frame and the flap are made of durable plastic, making the product long-lasting and weather-resistant. The universal white color fits many interiors.

Tip: To make it easier for your pet to pass through the flap, install it in such a way that the pet does not have to climb to get through.
How to teach your pet to use the flap?
After installing the flap, leave it open for a while (you can secure it with a piece of string and tape to the surface above. Ensure that the flap does not fall accidentally, as this may scare your pet). Encourage your pet to pass through the opening using their favorite food or treats. First, feed the animal at the door inside, and then at the door outside. Practice until your pet starts to pass through the opening without hesitation. Then repeat the training with the flap down, so your pet learns to push the flap to exit. Pet and reward your pet every time they pass through the flap. You can also introduce a playful element to the training, such as using a cat wand.
