Nocturnal Feline issues
Hi Neighbours
I am just putting my feelers out here on behalf of my boy Billy the Cat in the hope someone might be able to help me understand the Cat dynamics in the neighbourhood by night
Yesterday Billy had a urgent vet trip after his chin was bitten open and he had significant blood loss
Thanks so much to Brooklyn Vets they popped him into surgery straight away and he is recovering at home today
Vet and staff were amazing
Reason I am posting is while in the past wasn't as significant as yesterday Billy has been hurt in the same place 3 times now within the last year and always warranted Vet
I accept has always been my choice to allow him outside by night but I think those nights are over as something out there is giving him the bash on multiple occasions recently
I am just wondering if nearby neighbours have had any issues re same with your cats
Me and Billy have been locals for 12 years now and I don't feel he is safe by night anymore
There are obviously bullies in the neighbourhood
And there is considerable constant transition with non residents moving in and out
How do we keep our Pets Safe by night without locking them in
I guess I know that answer I just wonder if anyone close to my address has had any issues to
Appears the nocturnal cat wars are on the increase and injuries all cost money but more so emotional with one's cat being hurt
I am obviously human so I will be the first one to say I don't believe that Billy is a bully but things just seem on the increase with Cat fights
Any advice would be much appreciated
Kind Regards
Pauline and Billy
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
