Question:
There are devices that attach to garage doors that make them stop when anything goes under the door while it’s closing. It works by setting up a box on each end of the door and an infra-red beam goes from box to box. When the beam is interupted (something walks in it’s way) the door stops. Not sure what they cost. My parents installed one on their door (I don’t have a garage door). The cost is surely worth the life of your pet, your child, the neighbor child, etc. I think they can be purchased at hardware stores. Also, some doors have features to adjust strength in closing when they incounter an object. You should test by using a cardboard box placed in the way of your door. If it crushes the box, you have problems. My dad installed the infra-red beam box thing, and he is NOT good at reading/following directions, so they MUST be easy to install. Theirs has been tripped by the cat on several occasions. The device wouldn’t prevent a cat being trapped on top of the door, but would keep them from being crushed.

Hi, I’ve only read to chapter 6 on rec.pets.cats.anecdotes (posted 01/12/01). Where are chapters 7, 8, 9, and 10? I looked on that board and couldn’t find any further postings.

<< Hero is very lucky. A good friend of mine lost her dear cat due to a garage door. She was driving away and clicked the garage door clicker to shut the door. The door closed onto the cat, killing the cat. Really need to watch those garage doors everyone! >> I’m glad Hero is okay, too. My parents have a garage door opener like that also and my mom used to worry because the neighbor’s dog would sometimes come over and walk into the garage if my parents were out there. She got some sort of sensor on it that will supposedly stop it from closing if something walks under it…but you wonder how quickly it can stop closing once it has started.

Hero The Cat chapter 11 Worst December winter in all recorded history in Iowa. Naturally we parked the MH behind the house and enjoyed history in the making <G>. Plugged into the welder outlet, adapted to 120V/30A of course. Hero agrees that is a good winter to stay inside, he remembers his adventure and the wind chill of minus sixty last year. Both Deb & I have been cleaning, sorting, organizing and disposing. Hero nearly disposed of himself, Deb tells this, the eleventh chapter in "The Adventures of Hero the Cat": Episode On Hero: Hero loses another life. Hero is doing OK this week. He has been good about staying in with all the cold & snow we’ve been having. He likes to go out in our garage. Last week Sheri (the one that watches him and the house while we are gone) was down having coffee with us. Sheri went home and we went up to the church to deliver some brownies for a funeral dinner. We didn’t know it but he was on the garage door when it closed. He panicked and didn’t jump off onto my car. Sheri was shoveling her sidewalk and heard him meowing. She walked down to our house and all she could see was this leg sticking out over the top of the garage door. She ran home & got their key and found out later our front door was already unlocked. She ran out to the garage and got on the ladder and tried to get his leg out. She had to open the door again which released him. He ran over to his carpeted ladder. Sandy coaxed but he would not come down. About that time we came home and Ben coached him off the ladder. He was stiff as a board when he handed him to me. He just wanted down on the floor. I put him down and he limped for about an hour and was okay, thank goodness. All he was concerned about was, getting cleaned up. He had to give himself a bath. You know the saying "It scared the s*** out of him" That IS what happened and it wasn’t funny! Ben had to clean up the garage door too. Hero limped a bit. That evening he started to scratch his ear but couldn’t make his foot reach his ear. Two days later he seemed as good as before. He who is capable of believing absurdity is capable of committing atrocity. Ben VI
