vaivén hacia adentro

Explanation:
Es lo que entiendo, quiere decir que los paneles son suficientemente resistentes como para evitar/eliminar el vaivén hacia adentro, similar a una de esas pequeñas puertas para entrada y salida de mascotas.

/Cat flaps in general
If you own a cat you will obviously want to get all the accessories that will make life for you and your new pet an happy one.
A cat flap is something that a lot of cat owners will swear by, my mother-in-law certainly does with 6 cats.
Of course though you will need to train your cat to use the cat flap at first, but even then some cats will still sit by the cat flap meowing for you to open the door as they are too lazy to push the door open themselves.
You will find as with most animals that the best way to train them to use it is with food! Placing their dish the other side of the flap will sometimes do the trick, or holding the flap open with one of their favourite tit bits the other side can also help. But when all else fails open it and pat them on the bottom and they should go through it, and they will always come back inside if they dont want to get wet on a cold damp night.
In this review I’m going to tell you the pro’s and con of having a cat flap so it will help you to make up your mind as to whether or not you really need one.
