    Thanks but this s not quite the same, bit more bulky kind of.
    The other one is very easy on the eye and one can hardly notice it - thought you meant that particular one was available in UK.

    I decided not to put a cat flap in as my boys are expected to be home at night and with their cat brain they would not understand the cat flap is locked, they would simply demolish it.

    With the door or window they know if it is open or closed.

    Today Teddy (bless his white socks) had fun going out through the back window and coming in through kitchen door.... several times, in/out/in/out...
