My neighbour told DH last night that my cat attacked hers, leaving her cat with a swollen leg and unable to pass urine . I am mortified, mine is a rescue we've had since August and is really affectionate with us and the DC.
I've ordered a feliway diffuser and zylkene to hopefully calm him down, and we will keep him indoors during the day when her cat is out, but what else can we try? He's a real outdoors boy so it would be almost impossible to keep him in all of the time, he'd be constantly trying to escape and I think it wouldn't be fair in him.
To make matters more tricky, her cat is a house cat and only goes into her garden on an extending dog lead attached to a fixed point, so the cat can't properly run away from mine, it can only run as far as the lead allows it to. The lead is long enough to let it sit on the fence between our houses, which is possibly why my cat thinks it's invading his territory.
Is there anything else I can do to stop him hurting my neighbour's cat?
