manitoubass2 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Well, maybe a walk down there and apologize for your cat and family bothering her. Explaning that there is a cat very similar to hers that likes to visit your property but if it isn't hers you might have to shoot it because it could be carrying any sort of who knows what. Tell her that you haven't shot it because you thought it was hers and ask her if she thinks you should just shoot it or call the SPCA? I would be very surprised if she doesn't "appreciate" you coming for a visit! Three years ago I had a neighbor that wanted to sue me because there was a storm that destroyed my boat house which ended up on it's side. It took the insurance company two weeks to get here and assess the damage. He wanted to sue me because it interfeared with his enjoyment of the view of the lake. (I have the paperwork to prove it) Fortunatly he has since moved! Neighbors can be wonderful but they can also be a real pain! I would gladly do that but we've already been warned not to trespass aka set any foot on her property. If I was an arse her cat would be dog food lol.

Sinker Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 I just moved to this place in June. Only have one neighbour, and they are total country folks who fish and hunt as much as I do. They also like to have a good time, so we get along great. WE have already spend a weekend at their cottage. Great people. We are very lucky. Bad neighbours suck. S.

Big Cliff Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 In most cases you have to be a good neighbor to have a good neighbor. It doesn't happen very often but occasionally you will run into those people that hate the world, when you do, you have a bad neighbor no matter what you do! Shane, I'd love to have you for a neighbor anytime, you catch em, I'll clean and cook em and you'll be called "big sinker" in no time LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manitoubass2 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) Yeah we moved from the bush and solitude to get closer to work and all the kids activities(hockey, soccer, volleyball etc) My gawd I hate being right in emo. Two drug busts on our block like 10 days ago, now this? A good neighbour would be good, solitude is waaaaay better lol I can already envision another mover in a year to get the frig outta this place!!!

ch312 Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 Thanks cliff right back atcha! See my thing is, just with the cats, is that in my mind you just walk the cat home and ask politelly if I can keep my cat off her property. To which I would respond"absolutely, sorry about any inconvenience I might have caused you" That and her cat sleeps in my shed all the time lol. I dont mind its not harming anything. Its just found a cozy winter spot In others peoples minds, responsible pet owners keep their pets under control on their own property where they don't annoy neighbors and/or kill wildlife to satisfy their inner desire to kill for fun. This tends to avoid conflict, keeps the pet safe, and everyone is happy. I cannot understand how people who allow their animals to roam at large can even begin to complain about disgruntled neighbors. Don't want to be bothered with this sort of stuff? Control your animals. It doesn't get much simpler than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oggie Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 Roaming cats do kill a lot of birds and other small mammals. I'm not a fan of letting cats wander however there's a right way to bring the "problem" to your attention and that comment sure wasn't the right way. It's a good thing you're being reasonable if she tried that with the bad neighbours I've had she'd be biting off a lot more than she can chew. Good neighbours pick their battles and a wandering cat isn't worth the battle. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the police said she calls on everyone for any little thing lol. No big deal just a minor inconvenience(till the next time) Pigeontroller, just skip over it if you dont like my posts? or just post some bitter stuff, whatever you like mah man!

ch312 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 What is with some people? It was plus 12 and we let the cat out. Big deal! Don't want to be bothered with this sort of stuff? Control your animals. It doesn't get much simpler than that. Ummm. They are all chained up. You start the thread by saying it was a nice day so you let the cat out, I say you should control your animals, and you respond by saying they're all chained up? Odd, a cat is not considered an animal where you live? Weird. Big deal? Maybe not to you, but it might be for your neighbors who have to pickup your cats crap out of their gardens, garbage after mr. kitty ripped open a garbage bag for a snack or pay for damages your animal may cause. Do you know anything about huskies? I thought we were having a discussion about your cat wandering the neighborhood? I know I'm a bit late replying, but I've been busy lately. Your new thread about vehicle problems reminded me of this as it was likely your ticked off neighbor who did something to your vehicles. FYI, the SPCA doesn't hold stray cats for very long and it would be fully legal for your neighbor to live trap your cat on her property. The trap can be in plain sight and there is not a legal thing you could do to stop her from trapping and taking the animal to the SPCA where it would be destroyed after a short waiting period, if you didn't claim the animal.
