Your baby has finally reached that crawling milestone! The world is their oyster and exploring your home is the main mission of the day. Although it may be an exciting time, their curiosity could take them to places and rooms where they can get into trouble. This is especially true if you have an indoor cat and you need to keep your baby out of the cat food and litter box. Let's keep your little ones safe and your cats sane with the help of Door Buddy.
Our Story:
We were in the exact same situation when our daughter started crawling. She was constantly navigating to the laundry room with the cat food and litter box. We considered a cat door but did not want to cut a hole in our door. We tried a baby gate but it was so cumbersome to use. Plus, our cat simply refused to jump over it. One thing led to another and out of necessity, Door Buddy was born.

With the Door Buddy adjustable cat door strap installed, your door can open just WIDE enough for your cat to enter or exit rooms effortlessly.
At the same time, the door is kept NARROW enough so babies (best for little ones 2 and younger) cannot get in.
This way, you can keep your baby out of the litter box or baby proof the cat food without breaking your back or the bank.
No baby gate to climb over. No time-consuming cat door installation. No more messes to clean up. No more stress!

FORGET the hassle of bulky and inconvenient pet gates. Say GOODBYE to complicated and permanent cat door installations.
Door Buddy is the SIMPLE solution you have been looking for.
No tool installation using ultra strong 3M adhesive. It's simple, just peel, stick, and cure.
Will it be strong enough to keep my baby/toddler out?
It depends on what stage you consider as a toddler. It is usually best to start using Door Buddy early when your baby just starts crawling. Then, when they reach the toddler stage they will know that room is "off-limits" already. If you start using Door Buddy when your little one is older than 2 years old then there is a chance that they will be able to push hard enough for the adhesives to come off.
However, please review the INSTALLATION GUIDE provided for alternative methods of installation. Using Method 3 is the strongest and will provide the greatest resistance to pressure.
Just remember that Door Buddy is intended to be a deterrent only and is meant to make your and your cat's life easier. Like any baby-proofing product, it is NOT a substitute for proper adult supervision.
Will it work for my door?
Yes! Door Buddy works perfectly on left and right swinging doors, doors that push or pull open, pocket doors, double doors, and bi-fold doors.
You can even install on the back of the door for greater strength and resistance to pressure.
For more information on our installation process, it's best to visit our INSTALLATION GUIDE.
Here you will find our tips and tricks to ensure that your Door Buddy is fully optimized for your home.
What stops the door from closing and pinching fingers?
Because Door Buddy is a strap it offers lots of flexibility in installation. However, that also means that it doesn't prevent the door from closing. For most customers, this is not an issue.
However, if you are worried about this happening, we suggest adding our Pinch Guard or purchasing our Door Buddy Plus Pinch Guard combo pack. This duo makes the perfect team to both keep your baby out of trouble and prevent the door from closing behind your kitty or pinching your little one's fingers.
How wide / narrow can I set Door Buddy?
It all depends on your needs. The adjustable strap and the fact that it uses adhesive makes it very customizable to either block or accommodate your furry friends and little ones.
Widest width (6-8 in) - blocks large dogs and bigger toddlers from entering the room while allowing smaller animals to enter as they want.
Medium width (3-5 in) - also blocks medium-sized dogs and babies from entering the room while allowing cats to enter as they want.
Narrowest width (approx. 0-2 in) - also blocks most cats and small dogs from entering the room.
Just plan ahead to determine where you want to place the parts, keeping in mind that the location you decide to mount each part will determine the minimum and maximum width of the door opening.
How do I remove Door Buddy?
To prepare for the removal, heat the adhesive with a hairdryer for several minutes to soften the glue. You can then use your hand and twist the plastic part clockwise or counterclockwise so that the plastic part separates itself from the adhesive that is still attached to the actual surface. Once the plastic is separated from the adhesive, you simply take your fingertip and roll the adhesive into a ball and remove it from the surface.
Alternatively, after heating the adhesive you can use fishing line or dental floss and slide it side to side between the adhesive and the door/door frame surface. This works really well and usually removes our product without any damage.

We love our door buddies! They have worked perfectly for my cats and our roommate's dog. Everyone is happy and able to move freely about the house without trouble!
Better than any “baby-proof” type door guard by far. It stays up, it’s strong, and I can unlatch it with one hand. Great product!
This is exactly what I needed for the basement door. The cat can come and go but the baby stays upstairs. Easy to install and easy to open for the rest of us. Love it!
