In the last couple of months, we have had some new neighbors move in with 3 cats, that are always outside.
(For certain one of them was not neutered, but supposedly that has been taken care of.)
They are very scared cats and will not come to me, but they keep coming to my front and back door. The back of the house is all windows, so they are very visiable to my cats.
They just sit at the door and lounge around the pool, daily.
Tino freaked out and him, Ducky and Laura actually got into a huge fight from the redirected aggression.
Everytime Tino sees them, he instantly starts growling, puffing up and in turn the others get really stressed, too. Laura will growl back at Tino and Ducky will run and hide
I am using Rescue Remedy and Feliway, but nothing will calm Tino down, except when the cats go away.
Im worried about the stress that my babys are under right now, they are so "jumpy" and its affecting their dispositions.
Does anyone know why the cats may be coming to the door?
If I could figure out why they are insistantly coming, then maybe I can figure out a way to distract them to somewhere else.
They are very very scared so its surprising that they would be so brave to be out in the open like that.
