Three cats and a single litter box?! No wonder you want it in the garage!
Typo! There are 3 boxes. Otherwise the cats would have to wade through a mountain of sh*t just to find some litter...

Three cats and a single litter box?! No wonder you want it in the garage!
I've done this at my house (and the previous house). It's not hard to build a little 4x4x4 foot cage around the cat door to give them an enclosed area in the garage. I just stapled mesh covering over a square framed out of wood.
Ah, well, can you add a new one in the wall next to the door? I had to put one in the wall for my garage, which was just a matter of using my stud finder to make sure the space was empty, cutting the hole in the drywall, and putting in the cat door. I'm not exactly a handy person, so trust me, it's not as scary as it sounds if you're not handy eitherIt gets more challenging in my case, because the cat door is in the people door :/
When I installed a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage to charge the Model S, I used a 50A GFCI breaker. Did I just create trouble for myself by using a GFCI? Do the GFCI breakers tend to trip frequently when charging an EV?
Quick question. We were looking at new homes today and saw a home under construction we liked. If I had a 220 installed in the garage what type of charge time would I get and would I need the dual charger to maximize it? Would the 220 be almost as good as the $1500 charger that tesla sells? Thanks.

Install the 100 amp 220 circuit, and you can decide what to put on the end later (HPC or 14-15 plug) according to your needs.
Much better idea, I agree. Since the home is under construction that's definitely the way to go. You might as well run the wire to the other parking spots in the garage as well just in case you have more than one EV some day. I'd imagine they could always upgrade your electric box later but running the wire once the garage is built would he harder. You could always but a 14-50 plug on your extra outlets as place holders.
