Amazing the amount of personal attacks and insults the op is getting some of you need to get a grip and need to stop the insults.

As for the op. If the chicken wire was put up properly should have left it. If however it was a mess I would have removed it and reapplied it properly after speaking to person who put it up to find out the actual problem.

So they didn't do anything to your land. You actually damaged their property by pushing it out.

I am a dog person though... :p
 
Not sure if this has been said but can't you just flip the fence around so the chicken wire is on your side so you can take it off, repeat process each they put it back on :D.

That's probably because the OP was insulting his neighbour when in fact it was him that was being the batty one...
 
I can understand your neighbours annoyance at having toxoplasmosis-infected faeces dumped in their garden, why is it that so many cat owners are irresponsible and allow their animals to roam the neighbourhood to annoy neighbours, spread disease and get hit by cars when dog owners are able to keep their animals confined to their property? Simple solution if you can't keep your animals on your own property, don't own any!

If you can teach a cat to respect human boundary's you will be a very rich man.

You can buy electric fences/collars cheaply nowadays. However like I said, if you can't control them, don't own them, saying "they won't obey me"/"they need to roam" is no excuse when you simply should not have bought the animals in the first place.

Agree 100%.

I had to replace a neighbour's fence panel many years back as my German Shepherd got bored of next doors cat visiting his terrirory and decided to do some payback and visit the cat's garden... through the fence.

Either my dog is incredibly strong, or fence panels are weak as **** :) Made my neighbour literately LOL, as she put it "I heard this hissing and went to look, saw my cat in attack/defence mode, which was followed about 3 seconds later by a loud bang and your dog appearing at warp factor 5 in a shower of broken wood panels and splinters!!"

Wish I could have seen it. Funny as ****. Nothing says "get the **** off my land" better than the jaws of a GSD.

In case any mad cat owners are concerned, the cat is fine. The fence has been repaired, the lady next door is now my lovely wife.

Cats are cute and NOTHING more. Bloody things should be bought and laughed at when kittens for being cute but the moment they show arrogance, for they all will, booted into a river while you shout "who's the daddy fuzz face!"
 
I've had to go back and read the OP again because to be honest every single one of you seems to be ranting about some dividing fence and that's not what he stated.

To put it into perspective..
Say you live in a street with both sides of the road having houses on.
You erect a front fence and cut a hole in it.
Your neighbours across the street don't like this so come over and "fix it" for you..
Council own the road, not the neighbours!!
WHAT RIGHT HAVE THE NEIGHBOURS GOT TO FIX YOUR FENCE?


That's how I see it and if correct, they have no damn right what so ever.
Back fence or front fence.

If it IS a dividing fence between properties then I will indeed pipe down and call magic an arse along with the rest of you. :D

I know magic is a stark raving loon and maybe you are just bashing his post because of this... but I don't see it as 99.9% of you have..

Woke up this morning feeling fine........

Let my dog out for morning wee wee and noticed right at the end of my garden that my fence which has a small 8" hole at the foot of it has chicken wire stapled to it from the other side.
So being a good neighbour I pushed it out.

Now this 'land' at the end of my garden on the other side has 5 old peoples bungalows built by the council.

The fence is mine, how do I know this? Well 3 years ago it was 9ft conifers which I took down and replaced with a fence which I paid for.

The old lady who lives at the one closest to me has shouted at me a year back telling me that my cats have been doing do da's on her grass.

I have 2 cats and yes it maybe them, but also everyone around here has cats so it could be any of them. I have had words with my cats and they promised not to do do da's anymore on her lawn.

Now the point really is, is this old lady and her husband allowed to staple chicken wire to my fence? Or shall I now sue her for criminal damage.

Really annoyed me this morning. ( I cut my finger too pushing the wire back through )

For **** sake man just leave it alone, its only a bit of chicken wire. What possible harm is it doing to you? It really does come across like you are just spoiling for an argument.

my brothers friend once caught a cat doing its business on his lawn. he caught it one day, picked it up by its tail, rubbed pepper in its nose, and swung it round by its tail and let it go over the fence. lesson learnt. :p

I really hope that's not true, if it is true the appropriate reaction would be to take a hammer to your brothers friends hand imo.
 
I see the point of the OP, covering up the hole wont stop cats crapping in their garden. My garden is completely closed off due to our "curious" golden lab and our cat still manages to crap in other peoples gardens.
 
I have house cats that do their business in a litter box, so my pets don't contribute to stealth poos. I do get the occasional gift left in the garden from the neighbours cats from time to time, its really not that big a deal imo just bag it and tag it.

Time, effort, attention...


I can easily understand the annoyance about cat ****, it stinks and you need to do something to make it stop... Not so big a deal is still a deal that shouldn't be needed in the first place. I like cats but if I see cats in my garden I will scare them away...


Then again, it depends in what mood you are, I would get very annoyed about it at some moment, while at another I'd think ''whatever, who cares''.
