Cat Gates & Doors

How do I keep my 5 year old female cat from escaping

I have a young cat brand new to home and I have a sliding door. I am wondering can a cat be trained not to attempt to go through the screen door?

Hi. My kitten is an indoor outdoor and I wanted to keep him away from stray cats. I can't keep him indoors only because not every windows and back doors are closed because they need to stay open (in some apparent reason). What do I do?

I have two neutered cats who love being outside. We live in a mountainous area with wildlife, so we are trying to keep them inside but they learned how to open doors. We are trying to decide b/w a wireless pet fence in our yard where they wear large-ish shock collars (even though they are smaller for cats) all the time as the company says not to wear for more than 12 hours or to just put cat trackers on them and find them every night. Which is safer?

got 2 kitties 1 is 22 lbs other is 8, they need a window seat, I live way out in the country no shops, last 1 I bought was lousy, do you know of a good one, thank you so much for your time

Hi! We have this cat room (pictures attached) because they don't get along with Pharah. Is the cat room okay? We can't really afford any cat "furniture" right now or the doggy gates so we have a long chair in front. Dog doesn't go there and cats can still see the living room. Is the placement of food (on top of the table) and litter (under table next to each other) good? Should we add more things to the room? Also they only go out of the room when dog is away, like walks.

Hello. Not sure if this is appropriate question to ask, but perhaps you can help. I keep my cat indoors before sundown all night till sunrise. He goes to the bathroom outside. Last few days I noticed muddy prints on his cat door in the morning. Pics included. Cat flap is in storm door. I slide locking panel in & of course close inside door. Do you have any idea who this is? We have squirrels, but I have not seen any possum or racoons. What to do? I keep 2 water bowls in yard 24/7.

A racoon or possum may be showing interest in my cat flap door that is installed in storm door,... is there anything I can put there over night when closed to repel? Will lavender branch or rosemary or mint keep them away? Will keeping outside flood liget keep them away? Any suggestions or experience will be greatly appreciated. I love in new jersey usa. Thanks and blessings to all there.

Hello. I currently own 3 cats, and they all live inside, although before they lived outside. We live in the woods, and we've had 5 cats disappear when living outside, which is why they stay inside at all times now. The problem is that one of my cats, Johny, a 1 and a half-year-old male (neutered), keeps trying to sneak out the door when it's open. We don't want him to go outside, so we always have to go run after him. He's really sneaky sometimes, so we only notice he's gone after. Any advice?

I'll be moving soon, with my 13 y/o male cat. He has been indoor/outdoor for most of his adult life, with access to a cat door. I'm concerned because he will need to transition to being an indoor cat in our new home--litter box training, the works. (I hope to someday build a catio for him, but that will take time.) What can I do to make this easier on him?

Hallo. We have a dog door that is always open. During the day my dog goes outside to do his business, but at night he wakes me up and I have to walk with him. Is it possible to teach him to go by himself. If so how?
