Just a word of caution. I visited this post (more than once) for ideas to try to stop a cat getting in both our hedgehog feeding stations. One one night had eaten all the food before the hogs got there. I tried all the suggestions to no avail.
Then I took a step back and watched the cat’s behaviour. It wasn’t one I knew belonged to a neighbour. The other cats (our 3 and at least 5 others visit the garden made no attempt to get into the station. This cat wasn’t greedy, it was starving.
I then looked on all the various lost and found websites, and discovered this cat had been missing for over 5 weeks. Luckily, due to our hog cameras, we were able to identify the cat and predict her behaviour. Her owners came that evening and she was reunited with them.
I’m sure there are greedy cats out there, but I am so glad I thought again about this one. Now the cat is back with her family, and our multiple hogs can eat the food intended for them.
