Kitty!

[Souplex]

I have a problem. The neighbors cat keeps on coming into my home through the cat door. This leads to my cat having a standoff with neighbor cat until I chase out neighbor cat. My cat has been an outdoor cat for all of her life and therefore I cannot simply remove the catdoor for fear of driving my cat insane. Anyone got any advice?

Strangle the cat. IT'S THE ONLY OPTION YOU HAVE! DO IT! NOWW!

Have a chat with your neighbor. see if you can work anything out.

 

[Ultracake]

Literally Scare the neighbor cat, with any luck it will remember it

Also if your cats food bowel is near the catdoor, Move it somewhere else in the house. Most likely the neighbor cat is trying to nick off with some food

Daawwwwwwww! Kitty Cats!!!

Bring the problem up to your neighbors, see if they have any ideas.

Without barring one of the cats from going outside, I think you're stuck.

Throw a bucket of water on it.

That cat never came back.

Those of you who have suggested that I should try talking with my neighbor should know; my neighbor does not like me.

No more No more No more? (sorry it sounds a lot like lyrics to a song I know so I had to do it)

OT: Scare the crap out of it or help your cat scare it off by beating it in a fight.

This. It works, cat's hate water a-lot (as you probably know) and if you drench the bastard with a bucket, he won't be coming back soon.

 

[Russian_Assassin]

Scare the kitty away, or throw some water at it. Hopefully it will go away.

The moment he sees me he runs out of the house, it takes time to fill up a bucket of water and my hallways are narrow and my cat is generally between me and the neighbor cat in I will maul anything I can mode.

I'd suggest talking to your neighbour. Or everytime the pussy comes round, shoo it back out straight away, it'll get the picture soon.
Please, please don't hurt it or throw water on it that would really upset me.
Cats also don't like citrus smells, such as lemon and orange juice, so perhaps leaving some peel outside the door might keep it away?

 

[Insanum]

Spray it with a Watergun (its easier to keep it "loaded" than a bucket)

 

[Simalacrum]

Discuss the problem with the neighbour, come up with some conclusion with him/her.

Then that makes it problematic.

I suggest what this guy said:

...if your cats food bowel is near the catdoor, Move it somewhere else in the house. Most likely the neighbor cat is trying to nick off with some food

 

[A Weary Exile]

Set claymores by the cat door. Problem solved.

...unless your neighbor's cat has Bomb Squad on.

This has been going on for a few months; he is not getting the picture.

My cat uses the catdoor a butload; It would be punishing her more than discouraging neighbor cat. Also the squirrels and birds would probably just eat it.

lock the cat door from the outside and just unlock it for your cat

 

[The Kangaroo]

Set up a sentry gun turret. That cat will never get near you again.

But the cat's a spy!

My cat will go in and out every other minute; there is no reasonable way for me to keep doing that.

Something like this [http://www.smarthome.com/6191C/Infrared-Locking-Cat-Door/p.aspx] should do.
