Obie is moonlighting again :(

Bloody cat.
I love him, I feed him, I provide him with every comfort going. I pay enormous vet bills to have his hideously thick fur clipped for his comfort.

And the ungrateful bastard of a cat is slinking off somewhere else every day.
He used to go to the neighbour's in the day ..sleep on their bed and eat their cat's food! (I don't make him go out btw!) But he got too big to get through their cat flap. But he is going out, and not returning til the following morning for a snack and sleep. Then buggering off again.

I KNOW he is being fed elsewhere as he isn't eating as much at home, and he lives by his stomach! a 24 pounder cat doesn't stay that size on one meal a day here.. (usually he has at least 4!)

Is there ANYTHING I can do? He won't wear a collar (and I don't like them) but I would like other people not to encourage him!

Are you near me?

I have a visitor, his name is That Bastard Cat - he lets himself in at night and eats my cat's food.

The other morning (early hours) I could hear cat toys - he had let himself in to play with my cat's toys!

Occasionally I come in to the living room on a morning and he is curled up on the sofa.

He's not an enormous ginger Maine Coon is he?!?!

Have a groomer shave "sod off & get your own cat" into his flank.

Ginger cats are usually so freindly, next doors pleads starvation on a regular basis.
