Draught free cat flap?

cattie

I'm not sure if this is the best place for my query, but I'll give it a go & see if anybody has any advice.

I'm going to be moving soon & will need to have a cat flap installed for his lordship. I've had Staywell cat flaps fitted in my last properties, but have to say in this house I've really noticed the draught in the colder weather that comes through the cat flap I had fitted in the patio door. So with this in mind I'm wondering if anybody can recommend a good draught free cat flap so that I don't have the same problem in the future? I'm not sure there is such a thing, but I live in hope.

Good question. I was thinking the same thing this morning standing next to mine with bare feet, brr...

I have just had another cat flap broken-by the cats. Mine never seem to last long (the flaps that is).There is a cat flap that operates using the cat's microchip-anyone experience of this one ?

I find Staywell catflaps to be of appalling quality, in design, contruction and quality of materials. Basically v.poor value for money and in fact had a cat break in through our last magnetic locked one.

The one we have now is a Cat Mate, far superior bit of kit. Much better quality all round, several versions available i believe. We have the standard size electromagnetic version and we and the cats are very happy with it.
