DO NOT FEED CAT COLLAR RED WITH REFLECTIVE WRITING RED BELL AND SAFETY RELEASE BUCKLE BY ANCOL

Product Information

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 During the day and evening she seems to disappear, at regular intervals – I presumed some of that was her returning home for meals. 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. We love our cats, and it can be tempting to show them how much by ‘treating’ them to tasty extras. However, too many extras can lead to your feline friend putting on weight, making them unhappy and unhealthy. There are days where we do not see him all day and I am getting upset he might be over there. They even took his collar of recently, informing me when returning the collar, that he puked all over their place, but assuring he wasn’t being fed anymore. A week later my other neighbor told me that the cat food is still out, so they were plainly lying in my face. Today I heard the kid saying we are your mommy and daddy now not they, an adult family member being with them not educating about this being a very wrong attitude, likely having gotten food out before so that he approaches them as he would usually not approach people.

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. 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.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. 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. 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. 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! I hope some of these ideas will help you solve this neighbor issue. In some situations, if your neighbors are really hard to deal with and they are firm in their decision to feed your cat, these ideas might not work.

Hi, thanks for your comment. I would guess that you live in the USA or Australia where it’s common to keep cats indoors only. Here in Europe, people living in the countryside mostly let their cats go out during the day. It is because there is no big city traffic here, plus we don’t have coyotes, eagles and other big animals that kill pets so it’s a lot safer than in some other parts of the world.

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! 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.

But as pointed out, if you have a neighbor who deliberately wants to take your animal away, there is little you can do. Our Bengal x boy is very much spoilt, gets lots of cuddles and the best food, has more toys than many kids, but he is unfortunately also very curios and not the brightest. I fed her a pouch of felix catfood and she bolted it down in about 10 seconds, I had never seen a cat eat so fast so I gave her another one. My neighbour across the road has several cats. 2 of them like to come over the road as there’s a large cat community behind me and they access it through my garden. Have that talk with the neighbors and if they are normal human beings, they will understand that your cat is getting enough food at home and that there is no reason for them to participate in feeding the cat. If your cat has health issues or is getting overweight, let them know so they can understand the gravity of the situation. 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 healthLet me know in the comment if you have any other idea on how to solve this issue, so we can help all the owners whose neighbors are feeding their 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. 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. We know that you only mean well, but can you please stop feeding our cat because it is affecting her health. The cat is on a special diet / getting overweight / other reason which is not only bad for the cat but it also shows on our vet bills. Next time our cat visits you, please don’t give her any food as she has enough food in our house. I’m really worried that, as another cat, in her household, is apparently bullying her that she’s not going to ever settle and they’ll get rid of either cat.
