Thin kitty - been in a bad cat fight
Hello neighbours, just wondering if anyone recognises this cat. I'm sorry the photos are so bad, I was having to use a torch in one hand and my phone in the other. I also know you're not supposed to feed random cats but it looked so thin that I had a moment of weakness so I'm sorry for that too! Kitty was also quite dirty, there was fur ALL over the street this morning (I'm on Dunluce Place) and when I patted this cat this evening I could feel all the scratches on it's skin so I'm assuming that the fur belongs to this kitty. Fur was also very thin over its whole back (you can see a patch by it's shoulders in the photos). It's a gingery tabby with white front and back legs, a white face and black nose and has curly hair on the back of it's back legs with a very fluffy tail. PLEASE if this is your cat or you recognise it can you let me know because I'm really worried about him/her!
Six tips for improving security around your home
1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.
2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.
3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.
4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.
5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.
6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property
Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
