Pros and cons
Pros

- Trimmable liner
- 4-way lock
Cons

- Manual
- Average cats only
Limitations to weigh
- Measure your cat's widest point and the door or wall thickness before cutting; check the cut-out size on the maker's template.
- Prop the flap open for the first days and reward your cat for using it; most cats learn within a week.
- A flap that opens for any cat can let neighbors' cats and wildlife in; selective flaps prevent that.
