scratching up the door to get in.

for them coming in and show them to ring the bell. Once your cat
rings the bell, you want to reward them with a good healthy
snack. As you help the cat ring the bell you will need to open
the door allow the cat to come in with a reward right as they

to entrance and exit in. You can find cat doors and entrances in
most large pet stores, on the web, or ask you vet where you can
purchase a cat door. The doors are small enough so that a cat

suggestion is make sure your cat is not going to run off before
installing the door.
These doors can be installing right in your door, or possible
next to your door for a wall mounting. This is something that

doors, sizes, quality, and sizes, a search in store or on the
Internet would be a great place to start looking.
Let us look at the training for the cat to use the door. A cat
will not automatically use the door. Hold the door open and

simple small snack on each side. This will give the cat a chance
to know that they are able to do this. This could take time for

doing to let your cat in and out, and possible no more kitty
litter or mess where they should not be doing.
