My wife and I needed a way to tell if our two cats were inside or in the front yard “catio” so they didn’t inadvertently spend the night outside. the results are below. I was told the all white version “looks like it belongs in a dental office” so I made the slightly warmer wood version.
Letters on the plastic were engraved deep, then filled with a UV curable resin filled with pigment, and dispensed via a syringe. Loki and Hunter are safe at last!

Great idea, well executed.
Those are some fine looking cats!
Thanks! They are bonded brothers, rescued from the street. Obviously they have a little Maine Coon in them. Amazing personalities too.
Beautiful cats! Great thinking!
Great practical cut @matt22, congratulations! Thanks for sharing.
No being a cat person I have just 1 question, how do you tell them apart? Do each turn their heads when you call out their name?
We use collar color, but now one is 16+ lbs, and the other is 12 lbs, so just lift and…thats16 lbs of Loki!
There is always demand.
More, more! I have two black cats, brothers from the same litter. Subtle differences; they know their names but when trying to catch the right one to take to the vet, it helps that they are collar-coded like yours.
Glad I’m not the only person who has to do this. 
Oh, and the design is great. I’m assuming that once a cat is in it doesn’t scoot back out? I’ve had situations where I thought I had three black cats.
Great design, and beautiful cats! I love cats, but hubs doesn’t, so I’m not allowed to have any…unless they are barn cats, which I won’t do because I don’t want them wandering around to the neighbors, and because we have coyotes around. So yes, continue to share pics - all of you who have cats. That’s the only way I can enjoy them!
This was Raichu, our 1yr old Maine Coon - best cats ever! He was 26 pounds and a lap cat…just wish he was still here.
Schrödinger’s cat is in and out.
I was just going to ask how you tell them apart lol
They look so much alike.
Beautiful!
Love your cat tracker. 
I’m allergic to cats so pics are best for me! (Lived with them for many years but once they were gone, no more, too hard)
for Schrödinger’s cat I should make a slider that says “dead” , “alive” rather than "in, “out”
I love plays with words. Amibigrams or any other type. I was in a production of Jekyll and Hyde The Musical one time, and this was our director’s gift on closing night.
I want to see a design for this. Please? 
Woops, spoke to soon. @matt22, @deirdrebeth, i love them all.
@tjones, wasn’t Dr Jekyll the good guy, and Mr Hyde the murderer he became?
Hyde was definitely the murderer. Whether Jekyll was good, or a psychopath of a different flavour is up to whoever is telling the story!
How long did it take to train them to check in and out? Asking for a friend.
I remember seeing a doggy door once that indicated the last direction the flap had been swung.
My daughter “rescued” two ferel cats living around her accommodation when she lived in Hawaii. Brought them home here to GA. As they were ferel, they are quite small. It is funny as heck how one of them “gets into it” with my 65lb Boxer and my ex’s Mastiff. Last night, our dogs got into a bit of a fight as there was food around, and her Tux jumped in and separated them, swatting around and hissing like a demon!
