We have a neutered male bengal cat that is nearly a year old. As we live in a quiet cul de sac backing onto woods he is an outdoor cat. Everyone locally knows him as he comes with us when we walk the dogs and is very friendly. However, we have had our first complaint about him.
He is so friendly (and confident) that he is going into other houses and is taunting and generally terrifying the other neighbourhood cats. He even taunts dogs as they walk past the house on their leads. He lives with a lab and a springer so is very dog friendly but the elderly couple across the road have an equally elderly terrier and he is going into their house and is 'duffing up' the poor dog and has pulled a load of lights down from their conservatory roof. I have suggested that they 'shoot' him with a powerful water pistol which I can supply but does anyone have any other suggestions as to how we can train him where is out of bounds? Or is there something that I can buy our neighbours that will prevent him from going to their house?
To give you an idea of his personality he has even been seen playing with the local fox. Thank you in advance.
