"Close the back door then 
But it's really hot.
Get a water gun and shot the bugger as it comes in then "
Then won't we just have a wet cat walking through the house ? |

"As they say dogs have owners ..cats have staff lol"
This is how it is.
We were sat having dinner and it nonchalantly walked in, meowed at us and walked to the front door giving us a look of open the door then. |

If you don't do what a cat says it doesn't leave you alone. Even patting you repeatedly on the forehead when you're deliberately ignoring it. They are relentless |

In a previous house, our then neighbour's cat could open fridges. He used to sneak through the cat flap, push his paw under the fridge door (pads and claws pointing up to the ceiling), tighten/close his paw, and pull the seal open. Smart cookie used to raid our fridge  |

"Let it walk through the door as usual but immediately pounce on it and put it in a sack a take it for a drive somewhere far far away. "
Perhaps we should just do that with you!
Not for nothing did the Egyptians worship cats as Gods.
Even Kipling did a poem to them "The cat that walks by herself". |

We had one that opened the fridge, so just wanting a door open may save your food for dinner from being scavenged. Ignore cats demands and they soon learn to do something different - it may be worse or better. |

Cats don't usually like sticky surfaces, so if you lay some sticky backed plastic with the sticky side up inside the door, and put something in the way so the cat can't just jump over it, it is likely to discourage it from coming through the door.
This also sometimes works with tinfoil. Some cats don't like treading on tinfoil, so laying it on the floor (or on worktops, or table tops etc) can deter cats. |

He's obviously decided to include your house on his security rounds - expect a bill soon. Non-payment will lead to dead bodies being left on your kitchen floor until you pay up |

My mum was once walking the dog during one hot Summer and it chased a cat off the field through a garden, through the back door, through this chap's living room and out through the open front door. The youth who had had his afternoon monkeyed about with was most upset about first a cat he didn't own running past him, but then a big Dalmatian following it. He had a few choice words to say to my mum about it all. She was pretty mortified.  |

Cats also hate the smell of orange peel, (or at least ours did) put some orange peel around the door to deter cats coming in.  |
