Why it matters
ClawJaw's door goes through walls: a telescoping tunnel covers walls 3.9 to 7.9 in thick, and the metal frame is built to last. Double flaps help insulate, and sliding lock panels close it off.
The flap opening is 9 1/4 x 6 1/2 in. Templates are included for interior or exterior walls.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Wall installations
- Cold climates
- Large cats
Look elsewhere if
- Doors too thin for the frame
- Cats larger than the opening
- Owners who can't cut the door or wall
Pros and cons
Pros
- Steel frame
- Double flaps
- Thick walls
Cons
- Wall cutting required
- Any animal can use it
- Pro install may help
Limitations to weigh
- Check for wiring, pipes and studs before cutting a wall.
- 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.
