Cats Everywhere Are Driving Me Nuts

Now, I love cats and have three of my own. Yes, they stay in the house, well the oldest escapes from time to time, but stays in her yard. Now, you may remember the neighbor cat harassing my cat and the dog. Now there is another one. This might explain why the neighbor cat insists on spraying my pine tree in the front of the house just a short five feet away from my front door. Come on people, it is summer out and I have the doors and windows open. I do not appreciate smelling your cat.

The newest stranger to the neighborhood is a pretty little gray cat. It has taken to sitting outside my living room window and hollowing for my cats and of course the dog. I swear this cat is trying to get a male to come out and play. My male is fixed and does not go outside. He does not even want to go to the window. I assume this cat is trying to cat the cat that is scenting my tree.

I tried to explain to this cat that I have no interest in it sitting outside my window howling and driving my animal's nuts and me. You think it would leave and find another family to pick on, but know, I chased it away and walked back into the house and that darn thing came back. Now, I believe in freedom to go where you want, but not by my open window in the living room. If I shut that window, it will get very hot in the house.

Well, I went to bed instead and took everyone with me. Tonight we will see if it comes back for a visit. I sure hope not. I really do not want to go to bed early again.
