Cat Mate Elite Super Selective Chip and Disc Cat Flap

Our cat has 2 RFID chips in her. One for America and one for international. The cat door can't figure out what to do, so it defaults to locking her outside until we get home from work. We put it into "Training Mode" so she can come in and out, but it's not doing what it's supposed to do. Thinking about returning it for a refund.

Took me an hour to figure out the manual with all special info in the multi language instructions.

After I got it figured out, I set it to the first cat, then it died. Bought it for my Mom. Cut the hole in the wall. Should have check to see if it worked first. My bad. Mom had the cats chipped. Worked great with the first one. After I figured out where the program button was. The instructions are very vague. Don't think I'll be buying another one of these. Propably go manual controls next.

One more thing. I purchase the wall extensions and now I can't return them. First time this happened to me with Amazon. I'm disappointed.

I paid extra for this product because it claimed to work with vet-implanted RFID chips a nice feature since cats are famous for losing their colars. But the sensitivity to the new implants is so marginal that only by stuffing the cats into the entry and scrubbing them around for 10 or 20 seconds (like scrubbing the bottom of a glass wth a sponge) was recognition obtained. After much hissing, scratching, and bleeding (me) I managed to get recognition programmed but there was no way the cat was ever going to gain entry on its own.

The device works very well with the Cat Mate Electronic Collar ID Discs but I could have saved a $100 vet bill, bought a $50 cheaper model, and saved another $40 for two discs (supplied with the cheaper model but not with this one).

Programming is so non-intuitive that I've attached a storage pocket on the door above the device to keep the instructions handy and never misplace them.

On the up side, my two cats now have collar discs and thoroughly enjoy their new-found empowerment.
