Only if you let your pitbull do it too.

ElfontheShelfIsWATCHINGYOUTOO · 31/12/2013 22:26

Cats are free to roam and thats fab as an owner if you can train it to shit elsewhere. Its a bonus to having a cat you cant get from a dog.

IsabellaBird · 31/12/2013 22:27

that made wine come out of my nose

BonaDea · 31/12/2013 22:27

How on earth would you propose to stop it!!

InTheRedCorner · 31/12/2013 22:27

I don't have any choice in where my cats shit.

Is your cat specially trained?

meeeemo · 31/12/2013 22:27

They should write you a thank you letter.

As long as you don't mind your neighbour's dog eating your cat...

It's good luck if a cat shits on your lawn it will bring you good fortune in 2014.

delusionindex · 31/12/2013 22:34

Good luck training it to do that, everyone knows only foxes shit in people's gardens.

As long as you don't mind the neighbours feeding your cat chillies. The cat hasn't shat in the garden since, but apparently the owners' house was a mess for a while.

IsabellaBird · 31/12/2013 22:36

Thank you, Fractured Grin

If you are my neighbour YABU. if not, yeah, whatever. :o

Poshpaws1 · 31/12/2013 22:37

YABU - your cat your mess.....though not sure how to avoid really, unless you transport puss from neighbour's garden to yours every time it adopts the 'I'm about to shit' pose.....

MissRabbitsOtherJob · 31/12/2013 22:37

Better than on the shed roof. As Macca would sing, "let it be"

lifesgreatquestions · 31/12/2013 22:37

Thanks for tip wingding!

Katinkia · 31/12/2013 22:41

I have 12 cats and they all shit all over the place. One of my neighbours hands it to me in a carrier bag. I try and make it up to the nice neighbours by doing things for them but the other ones can fuck themselves.

Awww hun. Your cat, your rules babez.

I'm quite ambivalent about my neigbour's cat using my garden as a litter tray. And I sure she'd be deligthed to know the carrots used in cakes I bake for her are home grown.

ashtrayheart · 31/12/2013 22:45

Yanbu, it's only the same as what foxes do.

MightyMagnificentScarfaceClaw · 31/12/2013 22:46

I have four cats, and encourage them to shit on the neighbours.
One of them is a mean old old OLD bag anyway.
