CAT MATE ID DISC/Microchip Cat Flaps

Hello Everybody,

I have a few question could you tell me if the cat flap CAT MATE I.D. DISC works only with the discs wich are sent with the flap or also with the implanted chip?
Is there a cat flap which works with the implanted chip?
Which is the difference between CAT MATE Elite I.D. Disc and Microchip?

Many thanks in advance!

Hello @arimans and welcome to the forum,

The Cat Mate Elite 355 Chip & Disc Electronic Cat Door can be triggered by either a vet-implanted microchip or the Cat Mate Elite I.D. Disc collar key.

Hi Geraldine,

thank you for your reply.
Actually I let the cat go through the door but the implanted chip has not been recorded… is there any trick/tipp?
You mean, both Doors can be triggered by the vet-implanted microchip, which is then the difference between the two models?

Many thanks in advance

No, the door I mentioned/linked (only the 355 model) can detect the microchip, other versions only detect the ID disc.

This one detects the implanted microchip:

This one doesn’t:
