They're also handy for cats that have never worn a collar and might object to it. The only thing to watch out for is that there were several competing microchip solutions not too long ago, and in the past someone reported installing one of these cat flaps, being unable to get it to recognize their cat's microchip, and the cat flap support people told them they needed to take their cat in to be upgraded from a 16-digit to a 20- digit chip! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
