Thank you for your advice, however my cats use the same door to go in and out all the time, it would be a bit difficult to put a plant there that no cat likes, infact Lexie has the use of the laundry window and likes to come and go as she pleases during the day.

As for the neighbour, I cannot legally go on her property and trap her cats, it is completely open and she would see me, it is also against the law to trespass on her property, and I won't do anything illegal, I have thought of ringing the shelters about them, but only the SPCA will take them if she surrenders them, she may with the kittens which are young adult cats now, but she would not part with Duchess,Charles and Victoria, that I am sure of, I am hesitant to do it because i know they would be put to sleep as they are semi-feral, the no kills won't even consider taking them unless she spays and neuters and she won't do that, unfortunately there is no law to make her do so, I feel my hands are tied, and I am really worried come kitten season again, I have this feeling she is probably a person who moves a lot, lets face it, if the two females or the kittens have kittens we will have an explosion of cats, she won't be able to care for them and will probably just move and leave them behind, would not suprise me, I mean she must have already done that, they obviously have had kittens before, where are they now.

She is very hard to approach, I have already done that, leaving her information on spaying and neutering the cats, and have given her cat food etc, she just does not respond in any way, she calls herself an animal lover, right, sure, she is, in a sick kinda way, I mean the cats are feed, but I doubt they get alot of food, although they look reasonably healthy considering, but she would never deflea them, or worm them, they are constantly in the rubbish bins looking for food, even well fed cats will do that if they have been a stray, and the worst is they spend all year outside with very little shelter, that in itself I should beable to report her for, but like I said I know I would be damning them to death, at least they have some sort of life at the moment, even though it is not how you or I would like it to be.

I am just getting really sick of Charles coming over here and fighting with Ash, he had some rather bad wounds recently, luckily they have healed with a bit of help from me attending to them, but he is too old for all this stuff.
