isthisyourcat?

Thanks all for the messages - well maybe no thanks for the unhelpful messages... We are in the process of swapping our normal "low-tech" cat flap over for a microchip one. (Any recommendations for handymen who can do this?) But this cat is devious and, even if it weren't, having windows and back doors open in summer is pretty reasonable, even for EDF'ers. My goal of the post was for the owners of this bully-boy to ideally keep him in at night, consider neutering (if not done already) and feed him a bit more so he stops his scrounging. So if he is yours please do help out - sleep deprivation is not a good look for me.

Summer = windows open

This cat ? although good looking ? is harassing us and our cats every night. S/he creeps into the house, eats all the food and then comes into our bedroom and growls and hisses at us and our cats. Last night s/he came in at 1am, 3am and then 5.30am and woke us up with the yowling and fighting. Our cats don?t respond and just look at the him/her, but it is beginning to escalate. And it?s very disruptive to be woken so many times each night by this intruder. If it is your cat, please can you consider keeping your cat in at night / feeding it more / training it? Do PM me if this is your cat and you want me to let you know when it is lurking. We are on Archdale Road.
