Assuming it is a standard UPVC door, you can buy a new panel, they aren't that expensive and relatively easy to fit.

I’d like to remove/cover up this cat flap in a pvc door which came with the house as it leaks a lot of heat. What the best way to approach this?

You will need to find the thickness of the panel to get the correct one. It's probably 20mm, 24mm or 28mm.
Being as it's going anyway, unscrew the catflap and get access to an edge to measure.

Use a stiff sharp scraper to remove the beads from the frame.
