Door Openers

I'm hoping one of you can point me in the right direction.We have a cat that is indoor/outdoor. We like to keep him in at night as that is when the coyotes roam around here, and cats are ideal meals for them. Unfortunately, despite the fact that we have a litter box inside, he decided long ago that he did not like it and insists on going outside. Used to be he'd start howling to go out around 5-5:30 am, which is not bad since that's the time I usually get up for work. Lately it's been anywhere from 2:30 to 4 am, which is disruptive to our sleep as we have to put on a robe and go downstairs to open the door between the house and the garage (we have a cat door so he can get out from there).Anyone know of some sort of powered door opener with remote that we could put on that door between house and garage so we could just open it from our bed?Thanks!Sue

Seems as if that cat really knows how to train humans.

That's always the best part. Mine is 87 years old and sharp as a tack. She still does the Sunday Times crossword in ink. :^)

That's an idea. Unsightly, but nonetheless an idea. Thanks.

It seems now that this is the least of my worries. He is now bringing live baby birds into the house. :-(

Just be thankful he's not bringing in live baby coyotes.
