Hi Jackie I’ve sent you a personal message as I think the same kitten has been in our garden for 2 to 3 weeks.

This might not be helpful but Might offer you an explanation. I used to put our guinea pigs in their outdoor hutch during the day. It soon became apparent that a squirrel visited them daily. Then the squirrel let them out and then squirrel also learnt to lock the door after letting them out too! We eventually had to keep them in the house unless we were at home all the time because of this! We came home to find a cat stalking them with their hutch door locked. Our immediate thought was it had to be the squirrel! I do hope the piggies return they are such lovely pets, my kids were devastated when ours died.

Yes Dulwich Fox this is the cat that has been crying at my front door.

Does your cat have a do not feed collar on? I?ve been hearing loud meowing outside my door over the lockdown regularly. Last night one of my children fell asleep on the sofa so I was downstairs very late. There was loud meowing and clawing at the front door. I opened my front door and the cat shot straight into my house. Although a little cautious, after a good sniff of us then really enjoyed lots of petting. I did not feed her as I noticed the collar. She had a good roam around the house sniffing everything out. The cat really did not want to leave. My son woke and fell in love with her! I was all too aware that the cat belongs to someone so I left the front door open for her to wander out. This took quite a while she found a chair in the kitchen and curled up! Eventually she left but it didn?t feel like she wanted to go at all. This morning I was woken by the cat continually crying at the door. So I eventually went down and it shot straight into the house and made herself completely at home! Again I didn?t want to keep her in the house for too long as I thought an owner might be worried about her. I thought she might be missing but this thread seems to explain her situation. She?s absolutely gorgeous!
