Not mycat

He's finally got the snip. No microchip was found. He was such a good boy but by the next day he wanted to be outside and trying to escape.

He must regret staying over this one night he was allowed in.

Vet said he's likely 1 1/2 years ago because of his teeth. But we've been seeing him!?! Since November 2024..

We've named him Franklin as he has one fang that pokes out.

Oh his fully a hissy and a growling cat. Ours have never done that to us. Wondering if it's a learned reaction of survival while living outside?

It'll be a challenge keeping him inside his gf keeps visiting our garden every 2hrs at night as they roamed around together then.

Blinding collar

I named him Banana George has he attempts to steal our cat's catnip banana toy.

He's a bad boy, chases all the other cats and is loud as hell.

Didn't see him yesterday. But comes today with a blinding collar 😳 Was trying to arrange him getting trapped and checked.. His new collar has no details but it must mean he has a home right?

He runs whenever we approach him. Even when he's the one breaking in.

Stalker

Left a spare cat bed in the garden, only to see it being used every night; since new year by this cat. He has since dumped his girlfriend to stalk us, demands expensive wet food, invites himself in to take morning naps in our bed. Tries to break in via the windows 😅

Wants to play all the time and is hella chatty when it's time to feed him. Greedy gremlin would eat our cat's and his gf share. When he finishes the food he would slam the plate onto the ground to get attention.

Getting him neutered soon but torn between sending him to a shelter or letting him rule the neighbourhood.

He likes to sleep holding on to a hand.

Miss easily Catnapped

Back in August 2025 ended up Catnapping this girl, thought she was our missing cat. 🫣 Only to realise once at home, it wasn't ours. She just walked over when she heard us say our cat's name. We returned her to her area.

Then in December a neighbour told us there was a Tuxedo they have been feeding nearby, and as it was getting cold and foxes being around, they feared it for it... We recognised it was our Miss August 2025 Catnapped kitty. There was no microchip still. So we took her in. Posted online about finding her. While waiting to get her checked by vets, her owners put up posters of her missing. 😅 Real miss having her sassy self exploring our home. We had her in a spare room and got her toys, to which she wasn't familiar playing with. She started liking a cat tunnel and those toys that cats grab and kick. Mostly she like climbing things!! Everything!! Our cats never climb up wardrobes or fridges but she was going for it. She'd come up to you when she felt like it was human bonding time. Otherwise kept herself busy. She was so quiet. She wasn't scared of our cat, who we were keeping in another area.

We got in contact with her owners and they took her back. Cheeky bugger escaped the same day, once at home. Luckily she returned to them later on.

And then after months later, yesterday, she came over the area she was the previous times. (Had seen her on someones roof previously). But this time she came over to say hii!! Didn't have anything to give her though. She's so social and curious and reckless crossing the road. It's a pity she didn't have a reflective collar, we had given her one while she was here with us, thought her owners who get her one too. I just can't get over her. Looking at her now, should have been obvious she wasn't our tuxedo.
