Hi everyone, just wanted to give you an update on the neighbor
situation. I was out back last night and saw my neighbor and told
him I'd take care of any pooh issues and to let me know if he has
any other issues....he said no no, that is okay. I have calmed down
and am not mad at anyone. They are just animals. My wife saw the
cat out back yesterday and it went out of the yard....I said they
are unowned kitties and are afraid of people and I don't let my
cats outside. He said I know I know. His wife popped her head out
of the window and said not to worry -- they are animals and that
happens everywhere. I said I just want to make sure they are happy,
and she said we are happy we are happy. Which is all wonderful! I
am still going to keep checking tho and cleaning any poop up --
some animal is still pooping down there.
Thank you everyone for your wonderful advice!

What a jerk! A little poop never hurt, and besides, who knows if
it's the cats or not? I would definitely keep an eye out on this
guy and I would report his "threat" to the ASPCA in case anything
happens to the kitties. I'll be praying for them.

Anita,
I'm so sorry. That stinks that your new neighbor is
being a jerk. Saying you're going to kill an animal
is very serious and cruel. Is it an option for you to
speak with the wife when he is not home? Maybe she
doesn't know that he did this. Also, could you talk
to the ferals the next time you feed them and explain
the situation and tell them that this guys is
dangerous. Maybe that would help. If this situation
gets more serious, there are options, like calling a
shelter to have the ferals trapped and moved to
someplace safe, or calling the aspca on this guy.
Prayers going out that his heart would soften and that
the kitties stay out of his path.
