We too are having problems with a neighbours cat - think its the boy from next door. He's been aggressive with our female tabby for some time =- often chases her so she comes running through the cat flat so fast - then you just seem him peering through - debating whether to come in. Now he's debating no longer - he was in our kitchen tonight tearing clumps out of our poor cat. Can't do the water gun thing because we never really see him - sounds silly but its as if he hides and then comes out when he sees the cats.

Only thing is, I'm worrying now. We have our female and a boy and girl burmese and the other night our boy came in very sullen and lathargic - all wet on his back like he'd been fighting - and they've both been off their food for couple of days - and I know burmese can become quite easily stressed which seems to be the case here.

At night, as our cats like to bring mice in and let them go, we keep them in the kitchen so they can come and go during the night but we wont be infested with mice. ONly thing is, I'm worrying that if this cat is now prone to coming into the house, our poor cats aren't going to have any escape.

I know there is little you can do with cat behaviour, and I know alot of other forums say use a water gun, but we never see the cat - apart from quick look through cat flap - its so quick. Any advice would be really appreciated.
