I got one of these for the bedroom because I was sick of using a stuffed animal to prop the door open for the cats.

I think these things:

Which allow the door to open normally it just can’t close completely.

That's a clever option too! I do like with mine that you can still choose to pull the door fully closed without any issue, but otherwise it's locked in a fixed position so even if the cats get the zoomies the door doesn't fly open as they dive through.

Ahhh anti-zoomies is a perk lol.

We're low-tech and just use a rolled-up towel on the floor. We use it to soundproof the closed door at night (otherwise the cat whining wakes us up at 430am), and curl it around the open door to keep it from swinging.
