Shu Ting Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Hi all, I am wondering if you have any experience about what to do with a situation like this. a few months ago this lady (Thai) came every night to feed some food to stray cats outside my house. And since then there are more and more stray cats coming to eat the food she put out every single night. These cats also do their smelly businesses around my house and my neighbour’s house. My husband and I had confronted her before to stop putting food out for the cats but she was really nasty and fierce. She scolded us in extremely rude words and still do as she likes. She said that she doesn’t put cat food in front of my gate. But she put the food in front and inside my neighbour’s gate. My neighbour told her off about it and got scolded about a month ago. last week things were escalating. As she came to put food at neighbour’s gate my neighbour kicked away the food. Then she went into this crazy fierce mode who kept on scolding my neighbour, an old man. She even attempted to hit him, luckily his daughter was blocking her from hitting her dad. This crazy cat lady then called up her friends to come for support. About 4-5 people showed up. One of them joined in the verbal abuse. Fortunately nobody got hurt that night. Neighbour also called police but to nobody’s surprise police never show up. Neighbour’s wife has a video record of the quarrel. since then when she came round every night to put cat food, she always scolded neighbor in her rude language. My neighbour’s daughter will wash the cat food down the drain as soon as crazy cat lady left. Tonight when she found out that the cat food has been washed down the drain (it’s like she came back to check) she started scolding and kicking neighbour’s gate. Then she also kicked and broke some pots outside the house. My neighbours did not come out as they couldn’t hear. I told neighbour’s not to have another clash with her because they couldn’t fight her and her partner (she always come with somebody in a motorcycle). I feel a bit unsafe in my own house. It’s annoying having to deal with the cat poops and pees, and the noises she made at night when she comes round to put out cat food. The cat lady lives somewhere deep down the soi and she’s not even around our house. We and many people have always told her that if she loves the cats so much why not she bring them home to look after? All we ever received was her scolding. Is there anything we could do? Advice please? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kiwiinasia Posted October 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2020 I had this same problem with a dog lady a few years back in Bkk. She fed them on the road outside my gate. I never spoke to her. I watched her one day, picked up the food (it was put out on a nice piece of cardboard), followed her home and threw it over her gate, swore at her in english and walked home. She never did it again. 2 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people feeding strays create a lot of problems. One of many is that dogs for instance will protect the area where they get their food. If you walk there as a stranger they might threaten you. I never forget when I walked here in Pattaya at the area where now Tree Town is and was suddenly surrounded and stopped by eight aggressive dogs. Luckily Thai people came to my rescue.

I would not trade our gentle, sweet stray cat for the world. Of course, we took her to the vet before introducing her to our other cats. She did kind of look like a rodent when we got her, but is now plush and fastidious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a mad cat lady at old condo, where no pets were allowed, she had about 20. No need to hurt the poor cats just because of one inconsiderate person's behavior. Better to find a way to get her to put the food in front of her own house. Edited October 1, 2020 by squawkorama 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushroomdave Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I would just have someone with a dog who has the same time free, to come and sit right where she puts the food.....I am sure your neighbor would allow the person inside his gate and relax in a nice comfortable chair until she shows. If she realizes they won't come around to eat the food, she may stop. Also, I would just keep the watering the food down the drain trick once she leaves. The only way she can solve that is she would have to stick around and make sure the strays come eat the food but if she is that imbalanced, she likely has other things to do lol!!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CanuckThai Posted October 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) A garden hose or spray bottle at the ready, for the stray cats and/or the cat lady. The pepper idea sounds good too. Nothing a dog likes more, than a bowl of cat food... Plenty of non violent fun to be had... I'm not a cat lover, but I would be choked if I was defending myself of charges of X and my next visa extension, because of "The Cat Lady" Edited October 1, 2020 by CanuckThai 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
