Abstract

A window mounted automatic pet door device having a pet-specific identification component whereby only authorized animals are permitted to access the pet door. The device includes an automatically operated interally sliding door to accommodate pet ingress and egress. The device is intended to solve problems inherent in the prior art by providing for installation and use of the device in a window, including upper floor windows, without significantly modifying the window unit, thereby increasing the availability of suitable installation locations and appealing to pet owners who do not wish to structurally modify their homes. It also provides a pet access platform component to give a pet a convenient structure for approaching the device.
