Question
Please could you help me as I'm not sure what to do.  We have just moved into a new house and we have 3 cats who all get on with each other.  My problem another cat in the neighborhood. It attacks my cats and wees on them.  Not only when they are outside but now it is coming in through the cat flap, even using their litter tray. One of the cats is really getting hurt now and I'm worried about how it is affecting him. I have 2 males and 1 female and all have been neutered. They love to go outside and i would love to know how to solve this problem.

Hi Amanda,

This sounds like a turf problem. There are a few things you can do. You can capture the bully and have him neutered. This will help with the aggression factor. You can get a new cat flap. There is one that has special collars for your cats and only for them. Here is a link with a few of them.  http://www.moorepet.com/Cat-Flaps-for-door-and-walls-s/30.htmens You can build an enclosed cat area outside. Here's another link with some very cool ones their owners built.  http://www.catsofaustralia.com/cat-enclosures.htm  Or my favorite, keep them inside. I have 13 and none go out. I hope this helped you a little. Good luck.

Ciao, Karen
