My cat won't use a cat flap!

The use of a cat-flap is at the absolute limit of a typical cat's IQ.

 

You would love our cat then.

 

Since we have two rabbits, one lives in my room and the other in the kitchen as he just tried to attack the other one. So we have had to lock the cat flap for going out when he is loose, just in case.

 

Our cat however lets nothing get in his way, he just learnt how to claw at the flat until it catches on his claw, then lift it up and quickly put his head underneath. Its quite genius and far beyond what most cats seem to be capable of.

 

It wasn't a huge shock to us though, he also is known to grab us with his claws (curl around your hand, like someone grabbing you with their fingers) and he is very adapt at pulling doors open too. About the only thing he hasn't mastered are door handles, presumably only because he can't reach them.

Currently both cats go through our indoor cat flap without the flap in it, so they are both used to that now. However I'm not taking the litter tray up until they both use the outside flap with a flap in place - otherwise who knows where the yucky stuff will end up!!

 

The ham and string ideas will be put in place shortly alongside medusa's German Shepherd, I can't lose!! (The cat might though...) :hihi:

 

Thanks for the tips! :thumbsup:
