Will my cats set this off?

Yes it can, depending on how it is set. When we first set ours up we tested to see if our beagle, who is old, fat and slow, would set it off. Yep. But to be honest, this thing is a piece of junk. It may or may not work and will quit without any reason. I now use Loftek IR cameras, with my own security system I pieced together. They work lots better, have the ability to select not only sensitivity, but also security areas. And, if you get an intruder, you have his video.

We don't have any pets so we don't know for sure. We do know however that the motion sensors are adjustable up and down. We had to adjust ours down a bit to sense an intruder coming in the door. Hope this helps.

i believe so, if it is aimed where the cats will be. The one I installed for my mother-in-law was being set off at night by either cats or a raccoon.

Yes, my small house cat sets this motion sensor off. The sensor is mounted 8 feet high and pointed down a 12 foot hallway. I relocated this sensor into the basement instead due to the false alarms.

I don't ever turn mine off. I run it on the Eco setting and it comes on as needed. Sometimes that's quite a long time, sometimes shorter. It probably depends on what you have in your house. I have a cat and a dog and it comes on a lot when I'm cleaning and stirring the air up in the bedroom. But otherwise, not so much, probably because we're not in the bedroom that much.

Yes, I have two in my den for both cats, and I simply leave them plugged in all the time. The warming feature only works when pressure is applied to the mat, so you're not wasting electricity when they're not being used...My critters love them!!

I do the same thing for my cats. They don;t like it on high and I generally just leave all three on low all winter.

I would think if it keeps cats away, (very well I might add), it would keep rabbits away. Not Positive but it is logical.You may have to turn up to max output which is a lot because my neighbors complained it woke them up, so I turned it down a bit.

Yes, it can. I set mine (2 meal model) to go off 2 hrs and again at 4 hrs after I put it down. My cat eats small frequent meals for his diabetes and this thing has been a godsend!

My cats move their heads out of the way when it closes. I know if anything gets stuck in the doors the doors stop and keep trying until the doors shut. So even for a slow cat it would close.

Yes you just have to put it up there and turn it on. Hopefully your cat will not like the high pitched beeping sound. I have one cat that it doesn't affect so I guess it depends on your cat and whether you're willing to take a chance on it not working.

I am sure my cats can hear this, and they also caution you, the human, to not stand close to it either for the outdoor device I have. I have noticed a reaction with my cats.

It is activated by Motion so ANY MOTION will set it off. Short answer - yes

Yes. Both of my cats have jumped on and off of it repeatedly and it's never budged even the slightest bit.

No. Unless your cats hits the window fairly hard it will will scare him. It's a good item

The unit is quite responsive to movement near it. You may need to do an experiment with your cats to find out for sure, by using the chime function on the unit.

I have mine set up to allow the cats out until 8pm and then they are locked in. If they are still out after 8 and come back in it keeps them in. Also they can't get back out until 7am the next morning.

I dont know of an attatchment that can be used directly on my cats. LOL Besides when I turn it on they run so I dont think they would stick around long enough for me to even try such a thing!

I'm not sure that anything is 100% cat proof if the cat gets enough time with it but I can say that my cats are only interested in attacking them when I am putting them on otherwise they generally leave them alone.

Probably, because it's metal. I've not taken my kitty though a metal detector, but I think it would go off.
