Hi Emm, I have been going through the a similar dilema you can read about my 'stray' here http://www.catsey.com/showthread.php?t=20027 I found out my stray had an owner after flyering the whole street, just the owner is useless at caring for his poor cat! I like the collar idea too! This week we took him to the vet to have him tested for FIV/ FeLV since he is un neutered and gets into fights he has a good chance of having those and he is coming into our house and mixing with our cats, lucky for all of us the tests came back clear. Oh and the next time he sees a vet hes being neutered! |

I had a similar problem too and it turned out that the visitor had FeLV. Please do be careful about any contact he may have with Felix. It was a really worrying time for me waiting to get my cats tested to see if they had it too. Fortunately they have all been negative - but it's really not worth the worry. I know how hard it is to turn them away - but you have to do the right thing for Felix at the end of the day. I would catch the intruder and take him to the vets. See if he has a microchip and see if they will neuter. My vets wouldn't neuter the stray/intruder I had as I couldn't agree to take him in and look after him after the op (as I have other cats and he was upsetting them). Good luck |

I had the same problem, Chancer used to come in a spray and did he stink, but had him neutered after discovering he had been straying for about a year, hehas moved in and all is not calm again... |

That's a great idea and i'd go with that first, and then i'd bite the bullet and get him done, there's no worse smell than cat pee! |

Don't know what I would do in your position. Neutering is best for the fella but it may not stop him spraying as some neutered males and females(entire and spayed) spray, unfortunately. |
