5 Creative Places to Install Your Kitty Korner® Cat Door (Beyond the Bedroom)
When we invented the Kitty Korner® door, we knew it would be a game-changer for bedroom doors. Finally, cat owners could sleep with their doors closed without waking up at 3:00 AM to a chorus of scratching and meowing!
But since then, our amazing customers have shown us that the bedroom is just the
beginning. The beauty of the Kitty Korner® door is its versatility. Because it preserves the
original look of your door and can be locked closed when needed, it is solving pet-access
problems all over the house.
Here are five creative, real-world places our customers are installing their Kitty Korner
doors:
1. The Laundry Room (The Ultimate Litter Box Hideaway)
Nobody wants to look at a litter box, and nobody wants to smell it. The laundry room is a
classic spot for the litter box, but leaving the door open means letting the noise of the
washing machine into the house. By installing a Kitty Korner® door on the laundry room, you can keep the heavy door shut — trapping the noise and the odors — while giving your cat 24/7 access to their bathroom.
2. The Guest Bathroom
If you keep the litter box in a spare bathroom, what happens when guests come over? With a traditional cat hole, your guests are staring at a gaping hole in the door while they use the restroom. With the Kitty Korner® door, you simply slide, flip, and lock the flap into the closed position before your guests arrive. Total privacy for them, and once they leave, you open it back up for the cat.
3. The "Cat Lair" Closet
One of our favorite customer reviews came from Josh, who installed a Kitty Korner® door on a spare closet to create a dedicated "cat lair." Cats naturally seek out dark, quiet, enclosed spaces to feel safe. By outfitting a closet with a cozy bed and a Kitty Korner door, you give your feline friend a private sanctuary where the dog (and the kids) cannot bother them.
4. The Home Office
Working from home with a cat is... an experience. Sometimes you love having them curled
up on your desk; other times, you are on a crucial video call and they are screaming to be
let out. A Kitty Korner® door on your office allows your "coworker" to come and go as they please without you ever having to get up from your chair or leave your door ajar.
5. The Sunroom or Enclosed Porch
Customer Joyce blew our minds when she reviewed her Kitty Korner® door: "We actually
adapted this kit to fit a metal French door which leads from our bedroom to the glassed-in
sunroom area. Now we can lock that door and the cats can still access their litter box and
feeding station! Even our 18 lb cat has no problem walking through it." While our door is
designed for interior wooden doors, handy customers are finding brilliant ways to use them to grant access to safe, enclosed patios and sunrooms.
Where will you install yours? The possibilities are endless!
