Hi everyone,
I'm looking to replace a window in my conservatory with a hopper window (the kind that opens inwards from the top).
I'm just wondering if this could be a safety risk for my cat.

Hello,
From what I’ve found online, bottom-hung windows work in a very similar way to tilt-and-turn ones.
As with many types of windows, a cat might try to squeeze through, slip, or get stuck depending on the angle of the opening. The main risk is really if the window is left ajar while unsupervised.
It’s really up to you to judge based on your cat’s temperament and how they usually access the outdoors. If you're interested, you can find plenty of safety guards for these types of windows online.
Have a good day,
Maëlla
