To throw cat poo over my neighbour's fence?

I suspect I probably am but have had a few glasses of wine so here goes!

My neighbour's cat turds all over my garden and it's really pissing me off, especially as dd crawls around out there and will eat anything. So, DH stalks the cat, surmises that, because it spends an inordinate amount of time statistically on one particular neighbour's flat roof, it must belong to them.

So, I tipped a whole bucket of saved up cat poo (I mean, what else can you do with it - it surely isn't nice to put it in the black bin with your food waste?) over the fence, so it is now sat there in a rather suspicious looking mound. Some of the turds have gone mouldy. I expect my neighbours will see it in the morning. I have now had to throw the bucket away. Do you think they'll think it's me, or just a rather large cat? AIBU for being a cat poo thrower?

Yes but how many of you love your magpies like you love your cats. Can't imagine a magpie curling up at the end of the bed or on the sofa unless you drug it.

the cat owners I know all look carefully at the ceiling and whistle when asked about their cats pooing in other people's gardens.... it's like: " out of site: someone's else shite" to clear up!
Cat Owners - selfish selfish selfish!!!!!
A lot of Brits love their pets more than they love people - easy to love furballs that can't talk!!

yeah, magpies regularly have their owners by them magpie food at the local shop.

i feel strongly about how people control their cats.

i don't feel strongly about cats.

i used to have one.

it had a litter tray.

i didn't let it shit in other people's gardens or allowed it to hunt.

he was a beautiful cat and had a great life.

and i treated him well.

still wouldn't expect anyone else to pick up after him.

that is why i kept him in.

how many of you cat owners who feel strongly about my posts allow your cat to shit over the neighbourhood?

own up please, then i can put your posts into better context.

But why because a hat cunts, that isn't reasonable.

stleger · 20/06/2007 23:21

My observation is that when I was young cats used to dig and bury, modern cats don't.

youpeskykids · 20/06/2007 23:21

This really does have to be one of the most amusing thread's I've read recently on MN....

Sorry, don't mean to offend.

babygrand · 20/06/2007 23:21

I have just spotted this thread. Have often thought of doing that.

That must be because they are worth a bit more than your average pussy. Maybe?

Noellefielding · 20/06/2007 23:18

Have only read the op but that's what I do - I chuck the turds over the back fence where the cat always comes from.......

I'm sure it's there cat......

Kiskidee I do hope no one feels as strongly about you as you do about cats

UCM · 20/06/2007 23:18

Everyone I know who has Burmans etc, keep them in, they don't allow them to go shitting in next doors garden, who may or may not have little kids.

kiskidee · 20/06/2007 23:17

erm a magpie is a wild bird. that is nature....

a cat is a domesticated animal....

it should be controlled by its owner.

not allowed to slaughter wildlife....
