Other cats spraying - help please.
Hi, can anyone help me? I have two female cats (neutered/spayed, not sure which!) and they use a cat flap. The trouble is, so does every male cat in the neighbourhood and of course, they spray.
Is there anything I can buy that will deter the male cats from spraying in my house? I find it so repellent! Thank you in advance to anyone that answers. |

You can get cat flaps that only let your cats through - assuming your cats are chipped that is.
Quite pricey though - £80ish though you can also use them to set a night time curfew which is handy if you get home after its already dark or you want the cat to go out once its light in summer. |

I got the microchip one for mine, and looked around quite a lot - never saw any with a timer on. But you can set them manually to prevent them going out or prevent them coming in, whichever you want.
I have a similar problem though, OP - the local tom sprays all up the door and over the cat flap which both they and me are most unimpressed by

This is the one I've got Pet Porte
It doesn't have a timer, it works on the light level - which saves you having to adjust for daylight every few weeks! Its not very easy to program though, or maybe I was being a bit thick. Also the installation instructions were a bit still I got there in the end.It certainly works well - Brooke isn't that keen to go out at night anyway, but we have foxes here so I wanted to be sure as I dont get home 'til after dark in winter. Shop around as you can get it cheaper from re-sellers. |

Yeah, I do that with mine, it just requires me (or someone) to be here to do that, would be great if I could put it on a timer so if I did get delayed at work i'd know they were in safe after a certain time
