cat flap

Hi, does anyone know how easy it is to replace a cat flap? The flap bit has cracked and the cats are struggling to get out through it, although can after banging on it a bit. Does the flap just unscrew or something, or does the whole thing need replacing?
Thanks

Just replace the whole thing like for like. The hardest part is cutting a hole in the door but you wont need to do that

So does one just pop out and one just pop back in? Sorry, I'm really bad at this kind of thing.

Google "how to install a catflap" and watch a youtube video. They will have tools you wont need but better than me explaining

Yes, it's an easy job. If you buy the same one again especially. You might need to unscrew it but if it's the same model the holes will be in the same place.
