About this deal

If your cat is allowed out and your neighbors started to feed her, here are a few options that come to my mind when dealing with that issue. Talk to your neighbors

Around 4 or 5pm, I go outside with my cat, and we essentially go on a walk. This time is totally supervised, I don’t let her out of my sight. I feel this is the time when the neighbor would be feeding my cat. Then we go home for dinner and she spend the rest of the night inside We adopted our cat when she was 10 years old, and she had been an outside cat her whole life. I tried, but it not feasible to have her be an indoor-only cat. She is very vocal and will literally yowl at the door for hours when she is denied outside time. The other solution I have thought of is asking my neighbor if I could give her food to put out for the cats, instead of the ‘junk food’ she is using. They make a dry food version of the special diet food I feed my cat, and I would gladly buy that if she’d be willing to use it. But, I have social anxiety, so I just haven’t worked up the courage to broach this topic yet. But that will be the next phase!We had two brothers at 14.5 months and, mentally, they were in an awful state – they’d never been allowed out, had been treated cruelly, and were just scared stiff. The neighbour put a note through my letterbox this morning asking me to stop feeding her cats as they have all been poorly and been to the vets and need special food, I think she is lying. The collar is also a good solution if you are not sure who exactly is feeding your cat but you see that she is getting more and more fat. GPS We have new neighbors’ and they like our Bengal X cat. Keeping him inside would not be fair, as he loves being outside and there was no need to do so before they came (Tbh we had lots of different issues with them because they are just rude and ignorant). They started calling him excessively, rustling with cat food and leaving it out. My husband asked them friendly to stop it, informing them he is on a special diet. They were assuring us they will stop the feeding, but they were seen by other neighbors still doing it and I can still hear them calling for him often. I will next time open the window regardless whether I am in my nightie and tell them off, confronting them right away. The next time you go to the vet, don’t throw away the vet bill. Give it to your neighbors and let them know since they are directly affecting your cat’s health, they should participate in the veterinary costs. They will probably think twice before feeding your cat the next time. ‘Do not feed me’ cat collar or ID tag

No, the neighbor feeding his cat is not his worst issue; having a BAD neighbor is the worst part. Feral cats don’t live as long as cats with homes, but CATS WITH HOMES is the key phrase here. All my cats have been rescues, even ferals. They go outdoors but have indoor access, quality food and a warm bed, regular veterinary care, and they’ve lived between 15 and 21 years, with the shorter-lived ones taken by cancers.It is very upsetting and frustrating for a pet owner of a well cared for animal, if it gets deliberately lured away. Some of the points below are good and helpful, like the collar with a do not feed me tag or worst case the GPS to retrieve the animal, can anyone recommend a good one? Maybe your cat doesn’t have allergies but you tend to feed her with the best possible food while your neighbor is feeding it ‘junk food’ or the cheapest cat food on the market which also affects their health Just like humans, cats that eat too much get fat. The odd (healthy) treat can be okay, but feeding too many treats on top of your cat’s regular diet will cause them to pile on the pounds. And remember they are much smaller then us, so a tiny treat for us is a lot of calories for a cat!

But it’s made me wonder – is it possible she’s got a type of feeding anxiety too – so won’t return home for food and would rather “take her chances” getting food elsewhere? As she was in the house, just going out of the open-for-most-of-the-day-door she was immediately returned, and I didn’t see her until 2 days ago when she shot into the house, was very edgy and screaming for food – in fact she never stopped screaming for food. But one was always a scavenger and ate some of the most peculiar things. He also brought in a large number of animals too – which helped when we were trying to take an inventory of flora and fauna in his hunting ground – they wanted to develop the land, but didn’t, with his help.

Weigh Up

My cat is my best friend, and one of the most important relationships I have in my life. We used to spend _all_ our time together, and I cherished the hours we spent outside together, just lounging together and watching the world go by. Now, we hardly ever spend time outside together. As soon as I let my cat outside, she bee-lines it for the neighbor’s house, and will literally spend the whole day over there, hoping/waiting to get fed. I’m heart-broken, and have been in tears a few times over this. I miss my dear kitty so much! If you’re selfish enough to sponsor cat overpopulation and adopt only fresh kittens who’ve never been outside, then keeping them captive inside a house can work, and yes, if they’re given enough physical and mental stimulation/activity inside the home, they can live long and happy lives. For the rest of us kind-hearted souls who rescue unwanted cats and ferals, trying to make an indoor-only cat out of one that has spent much of its life outside is like shoveling ping-pong balls while trying to cage an exuberant child until its spirit is broken. Some cats can adapt, but most will nearly destroy your house attempting to escape; forced restraint can ultimately destroy the cat’s spirit, and it can be absolutely cruel. Eventually, by deduction, we found out they’d only been fed one type of tinned food and could not stand having humans standing near them when eating – so we left them to it! I have a senior cat who has irritable bowel syndrome and is on a special diet. We recently moved to a new townhouse, and have discovered that one of our neighbors puts out food for a couple feral cats, who she has essentially adopted. I’m on a friendly basis with the neighbor, who is very sweet and I believe only has good intentions. I have told her that my cat is on a special diet, and to please not feed her. But I know that she is still feeding my cat. I really just believe she doesn’t understand how harmful it is for my cat. A sudden change of food your cat eats can lead to illness. That is why, if you want to transition your cat to new food, it has to be done slowly. But this can’t be done if your neighbor is also feeding your cat.
