Burmese cat

　　Cat doors are not very commonly used in China, especially in cities crowded with tall buildings where cat doors are nonexistent. In more remote areas, there is a somewhat rustic term called: "leave the door," which is a variant of cat doors. If you are lucky enough to have a cat door, how do you train your cat to use it proficiently?

　　Cat doors are mainly used when the owner is certain the pet cat can go outside independently and come and go freely. The cat door is the door through which the cat enters and exits the home. When the owner is not at home, the pet cat can pass through the cat door to go out for a walk or play and then return smoothly through the door. So how can you teach your cat to use the cat door?

　　Strictly speaking, the primary method to train cats to use cat doors is the temptation method. If the cat is unwilling to approach the cat door at first, place it by the door and prop open the entrance. Then encourage the cat to go through it, and lure the cat outside with food or gently carry the cat out. It won’t take long for your beloved pet to learn to push open the cat door.

　　Of course, when choosing a cat door, owners must be very careful. The cat door should not be too high from the ground, and it must be locked. These locked cat doors can prevent cats from sneaking out at night and also keep wild cats from entering the home. (Source：PetsZone)
