Cat scan

[piskieinboots]

we have just bought a cat flap for the delightful little kittens - it is a duuuzy one which works reading from their microchips, funny part just now was waking each sleeping kitten, in turn, and carrying them downstairs so Snowdrop could pass the scanner over their chips

Like a bliddy check-out till it was

wow that sounds great, our cat won't wear a collar but she's chipped so does that mean i could just buy one of the cat flaps you've got?

how does it know which chip it's supposed to let through?

[piskieinboots]

this is the one that I have - there is an area online that allows you to check that your cat's chip will work with this flap, then when you get it you do what I just did - pass the scanner (before fitting the flap) over the cat, it beeps to say it has read and accepted the cat's chip.

'mazing stuff eh

It also has a night function, which works on low levels of light - which means that when night falls the cat can get in but can't get back out....I will report back tomorrow morning on how many times the little darlings bashed their heads trying

I like that very much indeed - bit pricey, mind.

[ckfe]

like the bit where it tells you when your cat is home.. it's like waiting for teenagers sometimes lol

[piskieinboots]

...- bit pricey, mind.

agreed, but as I am their current door-person it is cheap at half the price

[Hazel at the Hill]

Quite agree - not sure I can justify swapping to this doo-dah when I already have a cat flap, tho'.

[SlugLobber]

So, buying one of these justifies me having up to THIRTY cats, yes? I can say the website told me to!

[piskieinboots]

yep, thirty cats

Man went to the doctor complaining about general aches and pains. The doctor told him to lie on the couch. The man did so, and a small flap opened near his head, and a lovely marmalade tom came out. It walked over the man, purred, and walked back through the flap.
"What was that?" he asked the doctor, puzzled. The doctor replied,
"Oh, that was just the cat scan!"
