I have two cats. Cat1, massive, cPL cat, older. Doesn't hunt. Mice can run or stroll past him and he just watches.
Cat2 is 2 yes old. She brings mice etc in quite frequently. Sometimes dead, often alive. We have had to catch live mice loads if times. But now she has really honed her skills and I know has left at least a couple of live mice in the house that we've not caught.
We have a cat flap. I have said we should put the cats out before bed, then call them in at bedtime and lock the flap. They have a litter tray. Cat1 can go all night without using it. So cat2 should be able to. Dh locks the flap then cat2 goes crackers in the night so he let's her out but won't lock her out. So this morning l, a mutilated body and blood all over the floor. And an ominous smell when I used the grill so fairly sure there's a body in the cooker ffs.
Other than locking her in or out, is there any other deterrent? I'd just lock her in or out but bloody husband won't. I'd rather get up at 2 am to call her in than to catch a mouse.
