I would definitely post flyers around the neighborhood, warning the
neighborhood that a person in the neighborhood is putting out rat poison
with the intent to kill stray cats that enter his yard. I wouldn't mention
his name, just tell people to PLEASE keep their cats indoors.

There's really nothing you can do other than build a cat fence, and keep all
the cats in your yard. There are many different cat safe fence products out
there. Keep vitamin K on hand, if your vet will give you a vial (and
syringes to inject it, or you can get pills, but they wont work as quickly),
and you can treat the poisoned cats. (assuming the neighbor is using the
anticoagulant type rat poison)

Here's a good website that lists the varying symptoms of poisoning,
depending on the type of poison:
