What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures are for Norwich City Council's area (the inner city; many suburbs are in neighbouring districts). These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.

33.3%
of households live in flats
England average: 20.6%
A third of households live in flats. In shared blocks, the flat's front door is a fire door.
Terraces and the Golden Triangle
Victorian terraces in areas such as the Golden Triangle and Thorpe Hamlet usually have back doors onto narrow gardens, a good spot for a cat flap. Many are rented, so permission comes first.
The medieval city
Norwich's centre has a very large number of listed buildings, some with flint walls. Cutting flint is slow and can damage the wall face, and listed buildings need consent; a modern door is usually the better option.

Questions from homeowners in Norwich
Can I have a cat flap in a council flat?
Not in the flat's front door. If you have a ground-floor garden door, ask your landlord.
Can a flap go through a flint wall?
We'd usually recommend a door installation instead.
