No. If you are going there to instal a cat they will turn you away.

Stay as far from Midas as possible. Go with a trusted local shop with a good reputation.

Hmmm not having a cat is one thing.... But telling him that for wanting a high flow? Crazy

I would research the shop first. Not all Midas' are bad. The one near me is very good. They're actually a shop many people are referred to.
