Apartments
In apartment blocks around Salford Quays and the city centre, each flat's front door is a fire door and can't take a pet flap. Ground-floor flats with a terrace door may have an option, with the management company's consent.
Terraces and social housing
Terraced streets in areas such as Eccles and Weaste have back yards that suit a cat flap. A quarter of households rent from the council or a housing association, so tenants should ask their landlord first.
