I have a microchip catflap in the back door but its not working properly so its set to be open to all both in & out. I have got a replacement but haven't yet registered the chips & tags with it which is a lot easier if done before installation as I don't have to wait for each cat to go through for it to read their chip, I just put the reader part of the tunnel over their head when they are on the table or my lap etc.
Recently I've been noticing the utility (where the back door is) often smells o don't think it's our cats so last thing at night I've been setting the catflap to stop anything coming in & releasing that in the morning.
Osiris can be right idiot sometimes, trying to pull the flap rather than push but usually gets it right eventually. Today I heard the flap being banged a lot so went to investigate & it was Osiris who didn't seem inclined to do anything but pull, so I let him in. Later I heard the flap again, yep Osiris wanting in.
Then I realised & checked the flap setting - Yes I'd left it so everything was locked out of the house. All 3 cats had gone out at various times and as they are often out in the sunshine I hadn't missed them.
Definitely a bad servant!!! They are all using the flap successfully now so no after effects, although it must have been a shock for them all as I don't normally use the flap in that way as I don't trust Osiris not to try & annihilate it! When its working properly nothing can get in anyway, bar my 3.
