What a drama!

[i-need-a-martini]

So the rabbit has just raced in the house from the back yard faster than I have ever seen him run with this black thing running behind it. In the blur it looked like a panther!

It was a freaking cat! 

I've just spent the last 20mins trying to make the terrified rabbit safe whilst trying to get this stray cat out of my house. I had to boot the cat to get him to move away from the rabbit. And then he wouldn't leave the house.

The rabbit refuses to come out of his hiding spot and my leg is bleeding from being clawed by this blooming cat.

What the heck! It's not like the rabbit is a tiny little thing that could be mistaken for a mouse.

Why can't people keep their stupid cats inside? I am sick to death of not being able to keep my own pets safe and secure in their own house because people allow their cats to roam during the day.

your 2 sound like my old neighbours cat. It came no further on our yard than His car and ran back to its own yard next door when ever we came outside. It was quite cute for a cat stayed little and kitten like I called it tatt, short for puddy tat. Its gone now, got new neighbours with a skyline and skid marks all up the road:|

The other though... grr wonder if people think we own a heap of cats coz they all seem to hang out here

"And it was not pretty cause he hit the wall the first time."

how's the wall?

My mum and sister had cats (they were allowed to roam freely)  until they discovered dogs - and then they weren't real dogs - rats on string  Maltese, shih tzu etc.

Having said that - ALL animals should be controlled by their owners and kept in their own yards.

and Martini, the next time a cat chases me into someone's house I hope you will look after me.

Geez martini what were you thinking, kicking a feral cat out of your own home in order to protect you dear pet rabbit.

You really should have made the feral cat comfortable, and if necessary offer it rabbit stew, while you obtained a humane cat trap from your local council.

Anyway should the situation repeat itself you will know how to react so as to please everyone.

It seems like everyone wants to put the boot in now ?:|

Not everyone maybe a couple.

Yes but I wasn't talking about the cat, Crystal.

We used to come home to find the phone cord bitten sometimes.

One day when we were home the phone rang, the rabbit ran to phone grabbed the cord and yanked it.

The power went off one day and he did the same to the TV power lead.    :^O

Flashie - I tried everything for over 20 minutes. I tried scaring him but he lunged at me. I had the water bottle from the iron nearby and was trying to spray him. That didn't work -he just moved around. I took a towel and tried to catch him, then started flicking him. Nothing. All the while he's trying to get under the couch where my rabbit was.

But once I saw that my rabbit was ready to move, I had no choice but to put my foot under him and boot him right out of the way. And it was not pretty cause he hit the wall the first time. But he still came straight back. Second time round I booted him through the door clear out the lounge room so I managed to close the door before he could get back in. 

And he still wouldn't leave the house.

This was not normal behaviour for a cat.

And as cruel as it appears, my pet comes first. 

It's a cat not a lion !
