Door Buddy Cat Door Latch & Stopper. Adjustable Dog Proof Door Strap for Cats. Dog Proof Litter Box & Cat Feeder. Simpler Pet Gate Alternative. No Cut Cat Door Interior Door.

We love this product! We had trouble with our dog all of the sudden pooping in the basement. In addition, our cat's litter box and food is in the basement, so we couldn't just shut the door. We also didn't want to cut a whole in our door for the cat, because there was no guarantee the dogs wouldn't use the door. This solved the problem perfect. The door stays open enough for the cat and we can easily unlatch and relatch. Also, super easy to install. Great solution.

Backstory: For the last year and a half we've just kept Chicken's litter box in the bathtub of our main bathroom (99% of the time we just use the 3/4 bathroom attached to our bedroom since it's just the two of us, and due to the Global Panorama it's not like we've had a lot of company that would need to use the shower in there anyway, so it's been a pretty good solution). He doesn't spray or "miss" the box at all, but he IS a digger - for which we are very grateful, because he does an excellent job at burying his poops, which definitely keeps the smell down. BUT, because he likes digging/burying so much, he often ends up with a bunch of extra/loose litter...so I sealed up the drain in the tub (Glad Press 'n Seal is good for SO much more than just leftovers in your fridge) to make sure nothing ended up in the pipes, and bam, easy peasy litter containment. HOWEVER, now that my partner and I have both received our second dose of vaccine, and my parents several states away have ALSO received both of their doses, they've decided that they're going to make the drive over and stay with us for a week or two. We're all pretty excited, because it's been over a year since we've seen each other, and eventually video chats just don't cut it anymore! We didn't really want them having to come into our bedroom to get to the bathroom to shower while they're here, so it was time to find a new home for the litterbox. The dogs are well behaved, and know the litterbox isn't for them, so we weren't concerned necessarily with that part of the relocation, but the room we decided to move it in to did have some other boxes, storage, ammunition, hunting/camping gear/supplies that we didn't want to risk them getting in to, so we started looking at cat doors/flaps for interior doors...and they were either more expensive than we wanted to spend or they required a lot more cutting/construction/installation work than we really had the time for right now. Which is why we settled on this contraption. We got two, one for the room where Chicken's new setup was going to be, and also one for our bedroom (we sleep in our birthday suits, and all three of the animals sleep with us, so while we weren't concerned about the dogs being "locked in" the room with us every night, we did want to make sure the cat could come and go as he needed to, without leaving our door wide open, because let's face it, nobody's parents want to see their adult kid and kid's partner nakey every night, so... They took all of 30 seconds to "install", and they work exactly as advertised. No clumsy or finnicky clips/latches to fight with when coming into or going out of a room. Literally just drop the pin/hook end into the receiver/hole piece to "lock" it, and lift it up/out to open it. The plastic is thick and sturdy. the strap and buckle are high quality and look pretty nice (better than plain old nylon type material). The foam piece to stop the door from being able to close completely is firm and has a nice "grip" on the door so it doesn't slide around or fall down. Overall this was an excellent buy, and I'm glad I got two of them right away. I'm also glad we didn't have to take the time to cut holes in our doors, because now if we ever need to change the location of the litterbox again in the future and we need/want to keep the cat out of that room, we still have the ability to close the door (whereas one of the more inexpensive cat flaps would have basically created a permanent entryway for him since the "cheap" options don't have locks/latches). Highly recommended!

This product is genius. It’s so simple in design and so easy to use. It takes less than two minutes to install, and can fit pretty much any type of door. It’s worked great to allow my cats access to my bedroom while allowing me to still keep my door mostly closed. I like that it gives me control over how much or how little I want the door to open. The strap is nice and thick, and so far the adhesive has held firm. It still feels good and strong after a few months of daily use! Granted, I don’t have a dog that’s trying to get in — I use it for bedroom darkness at night — so I can’t vouch for how well the adhesive would stand up against a strong-willed pet. For my purposes at least, this thing has been amazing! I absolutely recommend it, and I would happily buy it again for additional rooms in the future.

Easy to install, easy to use, effective, and adjustable. The adhesive is super strong, don't know what it'll take to get it off when the time comes, but I'm not worried about that because it's such a great safety measure with small children in the house. We use it to block little ones from the stairs while allowing continued access for the cats.

The Door Buddy does work. I bought one to keep my dog out of the room where the litter box is located. Its nice that you can adjust the width of the opening. I have a second one in our camper for the same reason. I think its a bit expensive for what you get, but it does stop my dog from getting into the litter boxes.

This product is perfect! We got it when we had company visiting. Our cat likes to wander in and out of our room at night, but we didn't want our bedroom door wide open while we're sleeping with guests in our home. Kitty is also a fraidy cat and likes to hide under our bed whenever we have visitors, but she needs to be able to sneak out to get to her food and litter box areas. We can use this (1) in its totality so that the cat can come and go while the door remains in a fixed position. (2) With just the "donut," she always has access to our room, and is protected from being shut completely in or out. (3) We can unhook it and leave the "donut" off so that we can fully close the door to lock her out when she gets the zoomies or any other time we don't want her in our room. It's such a brilliant, simple fix and exactly what we've needed!

This worked great! The dog can't push the door open anymore - we used to keep it mostly closed with a rubber door stop but he learned to push hard. All those issues are now gone! And it is a lot easier to hook/unhook. Great product. The sticky material holds quite well.

Ive had this up for a few months now and it does its purpose. Keeps the dog out of the litter and the cats can come and go as they please.

Exactly what I needed to keep the dog out but stop the cat from closing himself in.

OMG BEST INVENTION EVER!! So simple but so effective! No need for an annoying gate/barrier to keep the dog out of the litter box and cat food!! Amazing idea! I love it!

Me gusta el diseño, es práctico, ha servido como dice el vendedor!

Easy to install. Simple, effective solution to a common problem.

Our dog recently had a trip to the vet with a suspected blockage in his intestines, turns out after an X-ray that he had been eating the litter from the cats litter tray! We quickly looked for options for how we could stop this from happening, cat doors which seemed permanent, microchip openable cat litter boxes are expensive, came across this on Amazon and it has worked amazingly, the cat can get in and out without any issue and the dog despite his attempts can not get in! Could not recommend enough!
