Advice needed please! We have 3 cats and moved house 6 months ago. There is a rather nasty feral cat which attacks my cats even breaking through my cat flap to get into our house. Vet couldnt suggest anything to discourage it, SSPCA couldnt help. Cat Protection said they could trap it and neuter it but would bring it back after. Would this make a difference and stop it attacking? Or anyone any other suggestions

It would be a good idea to let Cats Protection catch and neuter the cat as this can make a big difference, and even remove, the dominant behaviour.

I know a few folk who had the same problem and this worked for them.

Good luck!

Good advice from everyone...this guy definately needs 'done' and he will be a lot happier too and will probably end up an altogether nice chap.:)
