Finally stopped when I shut the window completely, so he couldn’t smell outside. He’s currently called Shelby. I thought that didn’t suit him and was going to call him Hamish. Now not so sure. Any suggestions from you lovely cat friendly folks?

Our neighbourhood yowler was quiet last night - oh the relief after being woken at 3, 4 and 5 on sunday night. Not our yowler, possibly the same prowling cat who caused us to lock our two in each evening after we had night time incursions involving cat pee in the hall.... Lovely.
