To not want neighbours cats in my garden?

Do you object to killing rats or mice? For some people, cats are no different. They are a pest that I don't want in my garden. And I don't consider them as native wildlife. PTS of these unwanted cats is surely for the best.

I've taught my children (have 4) to throw rocks at the cats that come in our garden. It's a made a difference. It's something I wouldn't have dreamt of doing in the past but the amount of cat poo was becoming a health hazard. My sons have a good aim. Having an animal that defecates in your neighbours gardens makes you a real lowlife IMO but strangely it's normalised in the UK.

So you want mass abandonment and mass cull of all cats? That's highly disgusting! I adopt rescues! Do you want them all dead? Fuck me your mindset is beyond help! Thing is that cat rescues take strays and ferals of the street, they get neutered and become pets that like mine barely leave our property, you want people to stop owning cats, that means the rescues can no longer take them off the street if they can't home them, if they can't take them off the street and you would just have lots of roaming strays and ferals that breed like hell and kill wildlife to survive. Your comment is pretty silly isn't it?

Ah well. That’s life.

This is shocking behaviour! There are far more decent ways to deal with unwanted cats in your garden than harming them!

I've given up trying to post common sense information, their minds can't cope with it.

all I know is that it is perfectly ok for cats to be kept in a house with a catio / run or cat proofed garden and that way the owner of the cat can enjoy them ( like I do ours ) and the neighbours are not inconvenienced by them . Hopefully eventually it will be law .

I hate to break it to you but my cats were feral for the first 4 months of their life, they were born on the local steelworks, ferals can be homed anywhere depending on how likely the rescue thinks they are to adapt, you would never know that my cats were ferals, my male is a real house cat by his own choice. This is why I am asking people to sit back and understand that it's complicated when it comes to rescue cats.

They don’t wear collars. I am thinking a bell on the collar might deter them killing the birds? They have caught a couple of small bluetits.

‘Used to’ isn’t particularly relevant to roaming. Cats either like to roam or they don’t. It’s individualistic and largely a hormonal urge, particularly in males. You can’t predict the individual nature of a cat when you get it. You have the cat you have. An enriching home environment is great, but it doesn’t equate to the desire to roam.

I wasn't talking to your OP, I was talking to you kiddy tantrum throwers? Your refusal to politely acknowledge the information I'm explaining about why there's cats about is so childish! You won't grasp fundamentals because it goes against your fake narrative.

Yeah

Lots of wrong uns about.
And what about the ones that haven't been caught yet
And the traffic
And the lilys
And the car thieves

Better keep sir shnugs in.

And, again, when posters tell you that they KNOW whose cats are shitting on their garden because they have witnessed it over and over, believe them. Don’t add insults to your repertoire.

Oh, you’re the stray cats enthusiast, should’ve known.

This is sounds like my exact roof.
Did you have to replace the gravel up there after using the flash?

We have a small pitched roof (original) next to the flat roof. I've even found poo balanced on the very point now.

Its truly disgusting and stinks my whole house.

We are a terrace, so difficult to cat proof every entry point, and I don't own the fence that is the launch point from my end.

Three kids were arrested for killing a man today - that's what happens when atrocious parents tell their kids to torture things to death for fun. Be very careful about being psychos, a child killed a cat for fun in our town last year and trust me, social media has ruined her life!

It was a long time ago, so I cannot remember, but it was quite a substantial amount. We had a very large flat roof on a kitchen extension, covered in white gravel chippings, (which on old asphalt style roofs was supposed to protect them) and one day a local cat decided this was the perfect giant litterbox!! The stench wafted into the house, we went on the roof and removed all the poop, then over a course of a couple of months tried every anti-cat product sold in the local hardware stores and garden centres. None of them worked, we were still removing poop frequently, one smelt almost as bad as the poop (I think that was the garlic one). We never saw the cat, or I woukd have tried a water pistol, it must have been a nocturnal pooper. In the end we simply swept all the chippings off and washed the roof with a very strong solution of Flash, and it finally stopped.

But they don’t rehome feral cats in residential areas so that is an irrelevance . Cats , even cats that roam would soon adapt to only having their own garden to roam in , shit in and kill things in .

Unfortunately many people who own cats, do not care what the cat gets up to when it leaves their house.

I can assure I care very much what my cats get up to. I would much prefer it if they stayed safely in our garden (which is huge) and didn't wander off. I would much prefer it if other peoples cats didn't come into our garden. And I would very much prefer it if they didn't hunt - except for the rats, pigeons and magpies, they can hunt them!

But they are cats, so I cannot control what they do and don't do.

No, I'm saying lots of cats shit on every ones gardens! It's not hard to grasp basics here!

So are you claiming your cat never shat on someone else’s garden?
