Should I stop feeding the cat?

[capri_queeen]

My neighbors cat isn’t being properly taken care of. My neighbor replaced her with a dog and 3 other cats. I took their cat back to there house and the cat was scared to stay inside and keeps escaping. She goes right back to my place. I feed her and let her in. The neighbor told me to stop letting her in. I told him to make an effort with their cat. He said he feeds her. If they are why is the cat starving 3 days after talking to them? I’m about to take the cat to the animal shelter. Am I doing the right thing? Should I just let the cat suffer?

most will not do anything until actual neglect is shown. so by feeding, you're actually allowing the situation to continue as well. Record it and then you can report it to rspca and such other places. they can build a case and prosecute and can also see about getting him banned from keeping animals.

I’ve been keeping daily notes since July. Thanks for your input 😊

Ask your neighbour if you can keep the cat for yourself... Simples.

I really don’t want the cat, but ill take action if i see a cat in need of help.

In that case inform your neighbour first of the action you're considering taking, and listen to his response.

And jolly good for you in taking the care and attention.

I really don’t want to say anything anymore at this point. I just want to take her anyways.

Please do whatever you consider best for both you and the cat... Good Luck. 🤞

Thank you for the MHO.

If you don't want to keep the cat, the shelter would be the best option.

[Billlewis]

Yes, I'd take it to the shelter at this point.

Maybe your neighbor will let you keep the cat 🐈

Why don't you adopt that cat?
