Well the neighbor did it. :(

I am so sorry about your cat. And I know that you true very hard with all your strays. Unfortunately one person can't save them all, but you are doing boatloads more then some people to help them! Me included!
This woman would definatley try my patience. I can't even imagine how angry you are. My solution would be to install ranch/cattle type fencing. So at least she would have to stop to go thru. I don't know what keeps you from clawing her eyes out!
The blatant disrespect for people and animals is what would get me. Too bad you can't have someone shoot her tires out as she is flying up and down the lane!! Oh wait!!! Don't repeat that - That IS ILLEGAL!!!

I'm so sorry about your cat


I'd also say go for the cattle rails...unless you ruled out the option of shooting out her tires!



Lack of respect for life makes me sooo angry!!!

Sounds like a horrible neighbor. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of the cat, and I understand how deeply it hurts - I have had small malnourished kittens die during the night between feeds, and even if I have only known them for a short while, it really hurts.

I think the cattle grid sounds like a great idea - I can't imagine her speeding over THAT!!

And please don't anyone say anything about the fact that I have cats OUTSIDE, I couldn't take that right now and don't need it. I've done the best I can for the strays around here, I catch them, get them fixed and care for them the best I can, just some of them, refuse to become house cats.

To be perfectly honest with you, the thought NEVER, EVER crossed my mind!!

Hang in there and know that we're here for you, okay??

I did sort of say something like that to her, when I first saw her. But then I thought, later like you, Oppps thats ILLEGAL!! So I back out of that statement, real quick. But in the back of my mind, it still sounds good.

Don't anyone get me wrong here, I wasn't so nice to her, there was a few harsh words spoken. It's just in between, I took the time to tell her that I was sorry about her father's cancer, cause I was sorry for that.

I talked to my husband last night about the cattle crossing rail, and he liked the sound of that idea, so he is going to look into them, once he get home from Tenn. We figure it will be harder for them to undo those then a speed bump or other things.

I wish she could take some lessons from her boyfriend, he comes down the lane so slow. This morning I watched him coming down the lane and there was Lita in the road, he came to a stop and waited for her to slowly get up and move out of the way. NOW IF HE JUST TEACH HER THAT!!!!!!

Just so you can see what I'm talking about and why the speeding down the lane, just seem dumb for anyone to do, here's the only picture I could find with our lane in it. As you can see, it not the best road to go hauling A$$ down and our end, we keep up, their end is nothing bumbs, so you think it would hurt her car. It was one of reason I use to feel a little safer about my cats, it's not like I live on a main road, it's a 1 lane dirt road!!!

First off, that's a great photo! But, good lord! That's a terrible road to go even more than 10 mph on! She's going to hurt herself one of these days.

[emily_the_spoiled]

That is definitely not a road that I would want to go speeding down (unless I had a strong desire to replace my shocks, oil pan, etc... )

I hope that the cattle crossing rails work out for you. They may cost some money to install, but I think that they might do the trick for you... please keep up posted to see if they work.
