Isnt she sweet , helping like that
The cat sounds like vicious ginger that use to scare all 4 of my cats and it wouldnt even move when you walked towards it but would just go into attack mode! I used to have to walk towards her with a stool infront of me just held and then she would slowly back away hissing and growling, ears flat back and teeth barred.
So used to have to walk up the garden like that
I made the mistake of trying to be friendly to start with but was attacked.
