Does your cat tolerate the sound?

Yes they do. When I first plugged it in they were smelling it and you know how cats do but after about 2 minutes they came right over looking for attention.

I don't have a cat. I have 2 dogs that sleep in my room and they don't hear a thing. Usually if they hear a noise they will bark. But not now :)

I do not have a cat. I do have a dog that sleeps in my room. He not only tolerates the sound, but I believe when I turn the sound machine on, it signals him that it is sleep time and he goes right to his bed.

One of my two cats gives this two paws up while the other has protested it since day one. We are thinking about trading it in. The second cat, not the machine.

I'm not sure which sound you are talking about. If it is the sleep machine sound, the answer is yes

Cats don't seem to even hear it. Or they are very good at ignoring it. Didn't even bother any of my 3 when I used it on the dog.

No it does not. Our cats (all three) were not intrigued. They just look at it. One played a little, that's all.

Laura is correct. The unit works because the cats are frightened by the loud and unexpected sound. If left in the same location for a long period, some cats lose their fear and will ignore the unit.To make the unit effective again, put it away for a while or relocate it. Also, try combining it with an unfamiliar sensation like tin foil or saran wrap.

Hi Trudy, it depends on the age of your cats. Older cats don't seem to hear this. Our cat is 15 years old and he just looked at it and laughed!!!

No sound at all. But I've yet to hear about a cat that isn't mesmerized by this toy.

It makes a crackling or rustling noise, but not annoying. If more than one cat uses it the noise is louder. It will provide you with entertainment, especially if younger cats are running and rolling in it!

I know they have videos out of it so I think it depends. My cat doesn't. She watches it but she doesn't like getting within two feet of it. She's afraid of the vacuum as well so I think it's the noise.

There is some noise, but minimal. There's a "click" as the magnetic strips reline themselves as the cats go in and out. I love my cat doors (I've 2 of them), but more importantly, my cats love the doors, as they've freedom to go in and out whenever they want. My youngest cat was so afraid of the outdoors until she knew that she could come in of her own volition via the cat doors, and since then she's become a different cat - it has just made all the difference!

I never used on a cat. I would think that a cat would be scared of it because of the noise.

No. It doesn't bother my cat one bit. He actually naps nearby the one I have.

Both my dog and cats like it. Mine makes a soft whirrr noise but I almost have to listen to hear it. Have found it to be very quiet.

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.

There are outdoor sounds, such as birds chirping. My cats seem to be soothed by them and sometimes, they just lie next to the television and don't even look at it. I'm assuming it is because they like the sounds.

Cats cannot hear it, but I have wondered about their delicate sensitive nerves though. I don't know if I am imagining it or not, but they do seem to be obsessively cleaning. I use Revolution so they don't have fleas. I need further study.

It is not silent, but not that noisy. My suspicious cat and I both adjusted to the motor and aren't bothered by it any more.

Mine did that for several days when we first set up the unit. We adjusted the unit to be less sensitive but it didn't help much. The cat finally lost interest..no further prob. Hope the same happens for you.
