Quick! Taking Bets!

electronic-pet-door1I got Dh a cat door to install in the laundry room door that leads into the garage. We don’t use the garage for anything but storage, so I decided I want to put the litter box out there and the cats can go in and out of the garage to use it.

We have one older cat that somehow, in her old age, thinks that going in and NOT turning around before going, is acceptable. The result is that she pees, and poops, OUT the box. Its getting VERY old to clean up.

I bought DH safety googles, a saw, and the cat door.

How long do you think it will take him to install it or do you think we will end up with a new door? The good news is that we already paid almost $400 of our medical deductible this year, so its better he does it before Jan 1st so we don’t have to start over.

Oh goodness…I hear the saw.

  1. Is that really all it takes to install one? I thought you had to like hire a professional to put a cat door in, or at least with my husband it would require one. lol

    What’s funny to me about this is you bought the door for your husband to install. In our house, these are MY sorts of projects for reasons like your TV stand.

  8. I bet he’ll do it right away. If he’s like my husband . . . any excuse to use a power tool is a good one.

    Cat doors are so easy! We put one in a door in our basement, it was a simple project. Good luck!

    Our cats caught onto the car door pretty quickly and helped me keep the smell hidden in the laundry room better. Are we going to get hourly updates on how it goes?

    He did get the tv stand though done eventually. LOL!

    i think you will need a new door! Since the last task (tv stand) didnt go over so well, i lost confidence in him- i thought he was more handy seeing he knew how to get a balloon down from the high ceiling, but i was wrong.

    btw did you really get him safety ‘googles’ :) ~
