Installing a pet door can seem like quite a big investment, and you may be on the fence about whether it’s worth it. In my experience, installing a pet door is worth all the hassle and more because it allows your pet to find a new level of independence, and ensures that no matter your schedule, they’re able to easily take themselves out to the bathroom. If you’re interested in learning more, keep reading to learn my top reasons for installing a pet door:
1. Independence
By installing a Hale cat door, you’re allowing your cat to come and go as they please. There’s nothing worse than having to manually open and close the door for your cat and standing around outside in the cold calling them when they’re nowhere to be found. A cat door means that you know that they can come back in whenever they’re ready, and you won’t need to be waiting outside in the cold searching for them.
2. Fewer Accidents
Because your pets can come and go as they need to, then there wouldn’t be any problems with accidents inside because you’re too slow to let them out or you get stuck in traffic on your way home. Pet accidents can be severe, especially when they cause torn ligaments or a broken bone. In situations like that, your first point of call will be the veterinarian, but there’s more. In case of an injury, you may consider rehabilitative therapy for your pet before seeking further intervention. Pre-hab expert Cynthia Maro says sometimes it can be what your pet needs to avoid surgery altogether. Post-surgery recovery is another story for your furry companions.
3. Gives You More Freedom
Our pets are like our babies, but unfortunately, we can’t always be with them, which means we need them to be happy and comfortable when we’re away from home. If you don’t have a pet door, you’ll be forced to plan your errands and excursions around the bathroom timing of your pets. A pet door will ensure they can relieve themselves whenever they need to and you can spend longer away from home knowing they’re comfortable and content. This will allow you to have more freedom to enjoy things without worrying about how they’re doing or rushing home.
4. It’s More Comfortable in the Cooler Months
Winter’s just around the corner, and having a pet door installed will mean you won’t need to spend your evenings standing outside calling your pets back in. It means you can keep the heat in your home, with their pet door only opening for a second as they come and go, which depending on where you live can make a big difference to your comfort! The reality is having a pet door installed is easier for you and your pet, and is worth the investment for both of your comfort.
These are my top reasons for installing a pet door for your pets, I hope they help you feel confident in taking the next step in investing in a pet door for your furry friends.
