We recently moved to a new house (start of June). We have an older cat (about 13), kept her in for a few weeks, now she has free run of the area.
A couple of weeks ago, she decided to stay out at night for the first time and I heard an almighty howling racket, came downstairs and found her outside, cowering in a corner being beaten the shit out of by a big black cat. No injuries, thankfully, but my cat is not a fighter and just cowered and took it.
I chased the cat off, but over the past couple of weeks it still keeps coming back. Now there's another large cat who is also frequenting our garden. The pair of them will sneak into the house if the door is open, and the black one has even let itself in through the kitchen window a couple of times!
For the past few days, the two cats and my cat have taken to sitting outside yowling! My cat will sit on the window sill outside, watching, whilst they stare each other out and howl painfully at each other!
Why are they howling at each other? What can I do to stop the other cats coming into the garden - at least into the bloody house!!
