Get another cat.. no, 4-5 cats and let them all loose on her-
This is still the best soln. Let her be a cat collector and neuter-er

Why don't you want to make your cat an indoor cat?-
Cats are not indoors type
-
Precisely.
Indoor Cats live longer - are healthier and feel better.
AND they are not into your neighbor's yards, they don't get hit by cars, they aren't getting into poisons outside of your house.... and more. -
Tsu - yes they are.
If you can keep a cat entertained - you can have a VERY healthy - happy cat.
The owner is responsible for a pet's actions - and a pet that is outdoors (like a cat) can be very damaging to other people's property or can be general nuisances (especially to people who dislike or are allergic to them).
Vets suggest that cats remain indoors.
It also stops the transmissions of diseases such as feline leukemia. -
And fixed cats are more likely to become homebound cats anyway, especially males as they don't roam around as much.
-
Hypothetically, if the mew of a cat were to be offending to human ears they would mute the animal. So, go ahead make them comply as per your wishes NOT
A cat is a nocturnal creature with real hunting instincts. If you want to keep them indoors all the time what you need is a warm fur ball and not the real thing -
You are taking this way too literally, tsu. No one said to keep the cat indoors ALL the time. I've had cats all my life and we never kept them indoors 24/7. What I meant by homebound cat is that you leave a window open or whatever, and your cat can come and go as it pleases. Some people leave their cats to sleep, eat, do everything outside - as in they are NEVER allowed to enter the house.
-
Because I don't do litter boxes...my animals are trained to go outside. They can come in whenever they want tho
-
@WW: I think keeping cats inside is cat abuse. My cat should be welcome to explore this big, beautiful world! -
I don't let my cats go outside any longer.
Sorry guys - I do agree that cats CAN be outdoors animals --- provided you don't live near a street that cars drive on... That you don't have coyotes running rampant or eagles flying.
Also - if you are willing to pay for any damage (spraying, bird killing, etc.) that your cat does... And allow them to catch any disease that comes along.
I used to be a big cat outside believer until my most recent batches of cats.
I've also had cats ALL of my life - my mother ALWAYS having 3 or more cats.
Several of her cats have been run over.
A few eaten by other critters...
A lot of them have gotten diseases and illnesses from other cats.
One lady sued her for the cat supposedly destroying her garden.
Several neighbors were upset that the male cat YOWLED outside late at night.
Another neighbor poisoned several of the cats that were outside (because, let's face it - a lot of people are NOT cat lovers...)
I talked with a couple of the vets we've had over the years and MOST vets I've seen are proponents of indoor only cats.
They say that indoor cats live MANY years longer... Are healthier and don't have as many illnesses, diseases, bugs or other issues that outdoor cats do.
They say keeping your cats indoors also stops territorial fights, stops little kittens popping up (if you have not neutered your pet) and it allows wild birds to live, since cats are victorious hunters... *GRIN*.
Also - the vets say that domesticated cats are not prepared for the wild... or the cities. Oh yes - they can survive - but they do not have the means or the genes to survive properly in a crowded city life.
Holly - if you can't handle a CAT BOX... WHY DO YOU HAVE A CAT in the FIRST PLACE?
-
-
buy a new cat
-
Well hunny comes in when she wants to,but she is happy outside...she is my mouser...she comes home with snakes,mice,frogs...she is an outside cat except. For eating and sleeping...
-
You'll find now that Hunny has been fixed that she won't spend as much time outdoors as she did before.
And yes, you need to get your cat back. It's YOUR cat.
-

Is your neighbour rotting in money? Most vets charge anywhere between $200 and $400 for a standard spaying/neutering so I can't imagine why she would "take it upon herself" to have your cat fixed. Personally, I'd be pissed especially since the surgery didn't go well.
That being said, it's your damn cat! Why do you feel like you'd be stepping on her toes if you took the animal back? If she had your car or your lawnmower or one of your kids, you'd go over and get them so why are you aprehensive about the cat?
Knock on her door. "Hello crazy, med-hogging, cat-spaying, lunatic neighbour. I want my damn cat back!" -
Call the police and turn the bitch in. -
Well because I know she isn't right in the head...I feel sorry for her, I think she was trying to do something good,but she is just weird..I don't want animosity
-
she stole your cat and got it fixed without your permission .. Personally, I would deal with that, I mean my gawd what's next ... You come home and she's cut your kid's hair off??
Tell her to stay the hell off your property! -
I've had several cats - all indoors and YES they can live happy, LONG lives without going out in to the big, mean world where they can be injured, hit by a car, get into garbage/poisons, cat fights, not to mention fleas, ticks etc.
Just MHO -
I would both call the cops and press charges for doing something to your pet that she didn't ask permission to do. I don't care if you are messed up in the head, you don't mess with my animals or you suffer the full effects of my rage. -
Well I'm sorry I feel sorry for the lady. She has big time head problems,and I kinda just go along with her to keep the peace...she has called the police on me in the middle of the night convinced that my 4 and 5 yr old was stealing her dog food...she really is a head case,and I feel sorry for her
-
I don't think I would call the cops, but I would make her understand clearly that her freedom stops when yours starts. It was your cat this time, but it could have been something else. So head problems or not, you should stop this behavior towards you. -
Apparently you are the chosen one. Darn Cat-nappers!-
What can ya do?
-
The best thing to do is just pray, trust, and believe in HIS plan for Hunny. She is in HIS hands now. and um... the crazy lady's too.
Wait a minute. Maybe the crazy lady is the "chosen one" now. Yes, that is it. HE has determined that it is in Hunny's best interest to be with her now. -
Thank u so much for those words...the all knowing truth dude (so he claims) I bow down before atheist boy...shucks just what would we do without his know it all self....
We'd prolly end up havin faith in the christ or sumthn -
I've never claimed to be all-knowing, but I appreciate your consideration.
-
Sure,no prob
-
-
Well...I just don't know what to say. I mean the lady is sick and she has taken it to a whole nother level,but I just wanna keep the peace,I really do hope she will give hunny back to me...
Hunny is such a sweet cat,and I'm not a cat person.-
Just comply with her demands.
-
-
Yup that's what I was thinking,or at least make her think I am just to passify her.
-
If you are not ready to fill out forms or fight with your neighbor, be at peace with yourself, befriend her, bring her some home-made cookies. A friendly gesture will surely change her attitude. -
Take one from ma mom...she got 2.. -
work the reverse psychology
you:Okay..keep my cat
She:errr..
YOu:yeah..and its gonna scratch on your couch and all furniture
She:errrr
You:Yes..I Said..keep my cat
She:Nooo..take it back..please..please..please..
You:Give me 5k dollars.
She:Okay
___
in the above scenario..You got your cat and 5k dollars -
Holly - LMAO - ok, one, I think i'd pee my pants if one my neighbors actually kidnapped my cat and got her fixed. Ok, now that I've stopped laughing, number 1, especially since she "was" an outdoor cat, you should have gotten her neutered at six months - there are way too many feral cats out there. Number 2 - my retard aka cat is an indoor cat - know why? Because I like that she doesn't bring in rodents, fleas, disease, get into fights, etc... by being an indoor cat. As for her litter box - it's in the basement - and I simply change the whole thing once a week. Very simple.-
Exactly stjavo - Like I said - if you can't handle the catbox - WHY DO YOU HAVE A CAT?
I mean - it's one thing if the cat is feral and you're getting to touch it once in awhile as it GRACES you with one of it's scrounging feeding visits. But you own the cat - and you feed the cat and you have the cat... Uhm... what if it has to go to the bathroom?
-
-
Kidnap her back.
-
That would officially make Holly a catburglar. -
She can put it on her resume.
-
-
kidnap the lady and then demand for ur cat..
-
you are sick.
