To report my neighbour because of their intruding cat!

[ricecrispies16]

Just gone in the kitchen to see paw marks all down my window, across the sides and up the stairs carpet! It regularly sits on my window ledge trying to get in and spreading mud all over my window, now it's gone and come in. What can I do about this? If anything.

Hahaha, what a brilliant thread I miss my cats now.

If anyone is going to report a cat, it should have been mine!
Her many offences include jumping on me from on top of the wardrobe and winding me.
Peeing on DH's only clean pair of trousers the day we were going on holiday.
Licking the icing off a freshly iced cake.
Constantly crapping in the middle of our lawn. Never in next doors unloved unmaintained wilderness jungly type garden, but in the middle of what used to be our immaculate lawn. She has ruined it.
Leaving hair everywhere.
Nowadays she's too elderly to cause much trouble and lives her life in the comfortable triangle of - dining chair for a nap, quick saunter to food bowl, pop outside for a crap, back to sleeping on dining chair.
In our old house she used to visit the neighbour for a slice of ham. The neighbour encouraged it!
Op, try mesh on the windows and spraying citrus smells around where the cat tries to get in. Most cats hate lemony smells. Perhaps a prickle strip on the window ledge.

Cats do not have owners. They have staff.
You cannot tell a cat what to do. They will ignore you.
There is no obligation for the people that a cat lives with to keep it indoors or to make any attempt to control it's behaviour when it is outdoors because any such attempt would be futile.
You can protect your home and garden against cats the same as you can for any other wild animal - make entry difficult and being there unpleasant. You can buy lion-poo online which repels smaller animals for example.

If she is breaking the terms of her tenancy agreement - eg if it says no pets, or allows one pet but she has 3 - then you can complain. Otherwise then it is up to you to make your house unattractive to the cat.

I had to PTS my elderly and very much loved cat 4 days ago.

This thread has cheered me up no end.

Long live cats.

This thread has been entertaining OP, thank you! No one wants your DD to have an eczema flare up but you do need to make sure this cat can't get in or is sufficiently uncomfortable (water spray) that he stops wanting to.

MNHQ, can we add this thread to classics? Reminds me of the chicken pics thread which I LOVED!

He knows you don't like him so he's going to fuck you off lol

melj your cats are almost identical to mine!

I would like to report my kitten for jumping on top of doors and cupboards to find cobwebs, usually in front of other people to show them I haven't cleaned up there!!

Girls - really??! You do indeed win.

Fluffy

I'm impressed that he even has a "baddie's" hat tattooed on his chest . . .

We have a squirrel that sits on my windowsill and stares at me through the window each day

We used to have one, too, Wigbert

The evil little bugger used to press itself up against the French windows (and believe me, then they are belly flat against the glass, with their paws star-fished up, their heads pointing up and slightly to one side to reveal their nasty yellow teeth, you can see them for what they really are - RATS WITH FANCY TAILS!

At the time we had six terriers, and they used to go bananas trying to get through the glass - the racket was horrendous! Somehow the little sod sussed that they couldn't get to him and would barely flinch. He only moved when somebody went to open the window and the pack of them charged out, barking like billie-o and running up and down the garden fence trying to catch him (no chance!).

He was massively fat due to a healthy diet of seed and fatballs off the bird table, supplemented by sparrows' eggs (I swear I saw him running off with them in his fangs). Probably ate the chicks as well - he looked as though he had no morals whatsoever.

Just disappeared one day - no idea what happened. I'd like to think it wasn't trivial.

Owners are not responsible for cats at all so there is no point reporting the owners! Cats are a roaming species and it's completely different to dogs whose owners are responsible.
