Anyone got a recommendation for a decent through wall cat flap? Looks
like replacement moggies are arriving shortly (previous psycho kitty[1]
finally pegged it a couple of years back, and I never got around to
sticking in a flap for it in this house).

Pet Mate for me. They're well made and they are good if you nedd spare
parts. They do various basic flaps, and stacking wall liners (50mm each)
to extend reach as required.

The SureFlap is the most solid of the microchip catflaps I've come
across.

I have been told that Aspirin in milk will cure the problem.
If I get the front garden sorted tomorrow I will be giving the local vermin

I am one of those people who likes a nice garden which is not full of
stinking cat ****.
I'm not very good at gardening but I try my best.
Over the past 4 years I have tried to be nice and I have spent a lot of
money trying to deter the cats. The ****** owner of the cats laughed in my
face when I very casually mentioned it to him. Cat owners do this.
This summer is pay back time.
Most cat owners live on scum council estates as you do.
This summer I'm going to poison every vermin cat and I really wish I could
do the same to every council estate ******.

Let's hope that your dream of killing a cat is as good as the one you had
had when you were pretending to be a top class fire officer.

You are a failure in life.

The SureFlap is the most solid of the microchip catflaps I've come

http://www.sureflap.co.uk/products/d...unnel-extender

Although he didn't mention micrchip versions. Actually, we have a
microchip one (not the Sureflap).

They do, of course, cost *considerably* more.

The Sureflap lacked a feature I needed, and the guy marketing it was one
who'd previously been involved in marketing of phones in a strange way
(learned about him on uk.telecom). But, as I said, it lacked a feature so
was no good.

I don't know if these cats are chipped anyway... probably not as a guess.

IIUC they currently use a magnetically activated one. I am not too
fussed since there only appears to be one or two other cats in the
neighbourhood anyway.

Ahhhh, James Winsoar I believe. Yes, but the alternative failed after 13
months. Sureflap, whilst more basic, has proved more long-lived.

That's him! Couldn't remember the name. What was the alternative?

The missing feature was *outwards* control, BTW. They said it would be an
option, but the company had just been taken over and they couldn't say if
plans had changed for the add-ons.

The one we got has been going nearly 2 years, OK so far!

Have you ever considered that the biggest stinking piece of **** in your

I own my house outright, paid for from my own labours. Taxes on which
probably pay for a large part of your miserable existence.
What are you doing living close to council estates?

Well, that's so very big of you. How do I know it's not an idle threat from
a complete tosser?

PetPorte made by StayWell. That also has the advantage of having a mains
adapter which the Sureflap doesn't.

Yup, that's the difference.

You're thinking of James Winsoar, and it was the PetPorte flaps that he used to sell (might still do for all I know).

I'll laugh my **** off if you do that and the dead moggie belongs to a

He might not know it's you who's killed his cat but you'll always
wonder when he'll find out.

You should have gathered them up on a daily basis and then taken them
down the scrap metal place. One of the few times when a cat works for
its living!

We have a *pair* like this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-STAYWE...-/150561347382

One is set into the wall, and opens out into a tunnel built
into the cupboard under the sink. The other flap is just
inside the other end of the tunnel (and the cat had to duck
under the door). Having two flaps really cut the drafts
down.

We didn't fit the second flap for about four months, and I
had to push her through the tunnel (with my leg - longer
than my arm) once to explain how the thing worked. Obviously
she preferred a member of staff to open the door, but in
their absence, would use the flaps fine.

I have one of those, they have battery backup too.
My current cat doesn't want to go out, so it's not curretnty in use.
But here's a couple of vids I did of it with my previous cat.
