Re: Guard cat
There is a registered sex offender living across the street from us and like you, we found it on the state list (IL for me). I definitely tell my neighbors, they need to know in case they have children or children visit. I just tell them I saw his name on the IL sex offender list and they should be aware of that and I do not know any details. Last year at Halloween our little newspaper published a map with stars in the general area the sex offenders live ... It was not good as some were two blocks away from their actual home and the newspaper had many complaints. This year the list contained names and addresses on the front page!

RE: Guard cat
Me too! You definitely need to call the police! My cats are really better 'guard dogs' than my dogs. Sometimes the dogs bark and sometimes they don't. But if someone drives up or there's any unusual sound my cats all jump down and run away immediately so I know someone is on the premises. Of course they wouldn't protect me. lol. But when they run for cover I know something is going on! t"Wolf, Leah R." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Wendy,I do hope that you have notified the police.Leah-Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED][mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of wendySent: Friday, November 04, 2005 10:47 AMTo: felvtalk@felineleukemia.orgSubject: Guard catI have a story for you guys. This morning I was up at 5:30 am supervising my nephew while he finished his math homework. My black cat, Pepper, jumped up on thebay window seat in the dining area and started pawing at the south window. I went over to her and wrapped my arms around her and started telling her how cute she was. I didn't bother to look out the window. Pepper usually does that on a lower window if she sees another cat, but this time, the window was up high. The next thing I know, my husband walked in and said "Were you just outside?" and I said "no, why?". He said, "Are you sure you weren't just outside?" and I said "no". He said that someone was sneaking past the bathroom window, which is frosted, towards the dining area windows. He thought it was me playing a trick on him, so he tapped on the window, and whoever it was, ran off. That's when he came to see if it was me. We live in a quiet neighborhood, but my neighbor down the street said that he's had to replace PVC pipe for his sprinkler system twice in the past week because someone was stepping on it and crushed it. The pipe is right in front of his daughter's window and when he repaired it the second time, he noticed that there was a crack in her blinds where someone could see in. So I guess we have a pervert hanging around, or living in, our neighborhood unfortunately. But I thought it was really cool that Pepper tried to tell me the way she did.

Re: Guard cat
Not to alarm you undully, but if this peeping tom breaks into the house...who will guard Pepper?

I'm really NOT trying to be cruel here, but we had a case in town about 4 yrs. back where the burgler...uhm...microwaved the cat. He got three years in jail.

Re: Guard cat
Hi Wendy, That Pepper is quite the cat! Did you tell him how proud you are of him, and that he should always tell you when there's someone lurking? I'd go one step further in notifying the neighborhood... Why don't you print up fliers to attach to utility poles and places that will easily be seen. Something about the prowler and that the neighborhood is wise to him. I'm thinking if the guy sees all the fliers and knows that everyone is on the look-out for him, he might just knock it off. This could be a very dangerous situation. If I were the parent of that little girl, I'd be sleeping in her room for a while! Cats can be good at alerting us, but dogs are better deterrents, they should get themselves a dog for their little girl.

There was a story on the web and on the local news last year about a guard cat, so obviously...they can be as good as dogs at that kind of thing. The unique thing about this cat: She was rescued from the pound, found as a stray, her eyes were so infected they had to be removed. She was an adult when her family took her in. Apparently when the burgler broke into the house in the middle of the night, she actually attacked him! The family heard the growl and other rukus and came down to find the window broken and blood everywhere, including on their cat. Luckily none of the blood belonged to the catand they found the burgler whose face, neck and shoulders had been superfically - but thoroughly shredded. The cat won a neighborhood watch award.
