A cat flap at its most basic is merely that. A piece of flexible material fixed over a hole in a door to enable a cat to go through, but keep the elements out.

Since this solution can allow other cats or animals to enter your property, it's not at all ideal, though it can be improved on a bit by keeping the flap in position with the addition of a magnetic strip.

Moving on from a magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip models of cat flap. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar fitted with a magnet, IR or RF chip. Therefore any animal that does not have one of these special collars can't access or leave your property. Again this is a fairly basic form of cat flap, given that any other cat in the neighbourhood who's got a similar style of collar could possible gain access to your house. An enhancement to this device is an RF cat flap and collar system which features a unique identifier which can be programmed by the householder. Only your furry friend gets access, thus adding an added layer of control and security.

The next stage in feline entry security is to consider a cat flap that recognises your cat's micro-chip. You have to enter the number of your cat's microchip into the cat flap's memory (which is battery powered), and if you have several cats it will take multiple entries. Whenever your cat comes into close vicinity of the flap, it unlocks and allows only your micro-chipped pets to use the entrance/exit.
