One of the neighbourhood moggies has taken to sitting on the apex of our garage roof, at all hours, and staring through the master bedroom window. It's more than a bit disconcerting when you pull the curtains back at midnight and find him eyeballing you .... :shock:

We call him "The Peeping Tomcat" ..... :mrgreen:

When Mick and I lived in Swindon, our bedroom window opened out over the top of our conservatory roof. We woke one night to see a huge white fluffball sitting on the bottom of our bed, maiowing at us :shock:

He'd climbed onto the conservatory roof and in through our window, which was open as it was a very hot and humid night. Mick shooed him but he didn't move, so he jumped out of bed (starkers!) ran into H's room, picked up his half-full water gun, and aimed it at 'Mr Jinks' - who promptly ran downstairs, with Mick in hot pursuit, did a 'wall of death' round the conservatory and ran down the garden and over the fence, never to darken our doors again

There used to be a cat who'd come in our old house and we'd find him curled up on the bed, he was a devil to move too!

At the same house I opened the blinds one lovely sunny Sunday morning to find a squirrel sitting on the window sill staring in. I was too scared to move in case I scared him and made him fall, so I sat on the bed for half an hour while he stared back at me :lol:

Having seen how nimble and acrobatic squirrels are in the woods I now know he'd have been fine :roll:

Ossie, staring cats are the Devil's kittens, you need protection.

Get garlic, holy water, lots of crucifixes, rosemary beads and .... a shotgun.

Nope, you need one of these

It's called the room defender, has a motion sensor and a voice box. It fires foam Nerf Discs. It can be set to warn, verbally, warn and fire one disc, warn and fire half the mag or just fire the whole mag off.

Sadly it is no longer made. It was on my "want" list for a while but I couldn't justify it and the Grandkids, at the time, were either too old or too young.
