Have always had a strange relationship with this particular couple-they didnt speak to us for 4 yrs after we moved in-because the people who lived in our house before were wierd(?!) and kept asking them for stuff, sugar etc
anyway they are a bit bizarre, weve always learnt not to park in front of their gate as they get really nasty, so is not worth the trouble, she claims her husband is disabled.
have always taken parcels etc for them if they were out and havent done anything knowlingly to p*ss them off.

about a month ago was getting kids into car when she appears
"how many cats have you got now??"

"4"

"well you need to teach them not to toilet in our garden"

"tbh, thats unlikey, they each have a litter tray and even when out, come in to poo"

I got back in car and drove off. then nothing until last week when she put up a trelis fence and tied holly(wtf??) round the tree next to our wall which the cats run up and into our back garden. then few days later more holly appeared.

monday they started parking their car facing down the hill-stupid i know but theyve always parked their car facing the same direction since theyve lived there(6+yrs).
mon night my young cat gets run over(dead). then tonight my oldest cat has been violently sick.

could be being paranoid but Im concerned thats shes trying to knock off my cats one by one-I cant prove that she knocked down my kitten but It seems weird the car is being parked in a different direction all of a sudden too.

am writing everything down that they do-eg holly etc in diary. noty sure what to think or what to do??
anyone else had anything like this happen?

Nope, but it sounds like they have a big problem with your cats. Is there any way you can keep them indoors?

Im trying to, its hard as ive got the children who arent as careful and the cats are quick to zoom out in between legs. feel like trying to get a cheapish cctv system to put up out the front.

she also tries to get her dog to attack them when she lets it out in the back garden, luckily my cats are too quick for her(stupid) dog

get a vet to do a check on the cat's vomit,I don't know what I would do but I would be tempted to use cctv (I am not paranoid!honest!)How horrible for you,I am sorry about your kitten.Could you put higher fencing in your garden if all else fails?

Certainly don't think you are being paranoid, this all sounds worrying.

If your cats are outdoor cats then not much you can do. I would get the vet to check out the ill cat and keep your cats in if you can.

Not sure what I would do next. If she has a dog, and you are SURE that there is a poisoning issue with the oldest cat, I should approach her and "innocently" warn her that there seems to be a local problem with pets....

She sounds like a nasty small minded bully and this might frighten her off if she thinks you've rumbled her but not in a confrontational way.
