A cat-flap fitted in your Ipswich home doesn’t just give your four-legged friend the freedom to get out and about – or in for food, warmth and security. It gives you peace of mind, more moments on the sofa as you don’t have to get up to do the honours and it can even help monitor and regulate your pet’s activity.
It’s a common misunderstanding that cat-flaps always to have be fitted into doors. It may be more convenient for your feline to use a cat-flap in a window in the kitchen or porch, especially if you live in a flat.
At Mr Misty, we can put pet-flaps in either windows or doors, but for the safety of the pet we believe that only laminated safety glass is appropriate for the installation. If the pet-flap is to be installed into a door of toughened safety glass, by its nature, the glass cannot be cut. Instead we are able to supply a new pane pre-cut to accommodate the pet-flap of your choice.
