Talk about neighbour from hell!!!!!! Got my car out of the garage this morning and next door neighbour comes shooting out of her house waving this dead Cockateil at me!!!
Apparently its the second one to die in the last week! It appears her reasoning for the untimely death of the last one is me putting my car away after 11 pm,revving it up to get over the lip in my garage floor!!!!
The really mad thing is that the mad cow really does believe that my de-cat has killed them!! (its not that loud
As you can imagine I told her she has lost the plot and to fluck off!!
Some strange people out there!my mates found it hilarious in the pub!
Regards
Simon

Try some sympathy, shes just lashing out as she is upset.

The birds probably cost her a fortune and to her will be as important as your car is to you.

Would you go round shouting the odds to your neighbour if you had a dead battery?

If you ran over her cat she'd have something else to grieve over....problem solved.

Note the please animal lovers.

LOL! That's a very valid point though. Give her ever increasing problems to help alleviate the previous one. The trouble may start just after you've burnt down her house and nailed her by the breasticles to the front of a train. How would you top that then?

You could always suggest she gets in a taxidermist. I think we have a resident expert on this board if needed

Explain to her really slowly that you had your cat removed from your car and it doesn't live nearby. As such your cat really couldn't be to blame.

Talking of fruitcake neighbours, I used to live next door to an elderly lady, who had her brain immobiliser permanently on.

I had replaced the asbestos roof sheets on my garage with see-thru plastic ones.

The old woman used to throw bread bits on top of my roof for the birds. one day when I was in the garage I heard a THUD on the roof, looked up to find a unopened loaf of Mothers Pride

Still laugh to this day about that one

If i was you I'd get a louder exhaust, maybe that'll topple her off her perch one day

Tell her to keep budgies as there much more hardy bird and more resistent to decats!

Failing that tell her you keep a Blue tailed scooby warbler and have had no stiffs to date

Hi m8
Is it the top or bottom lip you're revving to get over in your garage
These birds are only worth a £10 in real terms plus it takes at least 12 of them to make a decent roast dinner so you've only got 10 to go.
Can't see it being your motor thats frightening them to death. Unless you are trying to park in her livingroom. As you said already - tell her to **** off. Either that or wait till midnight and set your alarm off. Stuff a pillow time

Just read your neighbours posting on the COCKATEILNET BBs, and you should be affraid, very affraid......

Sollution, talk to her and say that if she continues to buy cockatiels, knowing full well that they are going to die, you,ll have no hesitation in calling the R.S.P.B. and reporting her for cruelty...

Or.

Be a really nice neighbour and take her to the pet shop and buy her a new one. Before buying just check to see that the one you get is deaf..

Is she old or just mad???

My next door neighbour, (80 something year old), said that it would be my fault if her house got broken into because I didn't have a lock on my gate! She truly believed it too!

Some people just love to whinge.

I think she's quite right. And make sure your front doorbell is working or it'll be your fault if she misses one of her fruitbat friends coming round?????

BEW-the nailed breasticles could be covered in jam and the train could be carrying the worlds largest collection of escaping ants(originally 1million but now 100k due to the obvious) with a fascination for warm,dark places.
After prising nails free with her teeth(now very jagged and broken)she could fall from the fast moving train into a pile of cotton wool,tin foil and down there hair-these would be forced into her open mouth,with the cotton wool instantly drying up her mouth whilst the tinfoil rubs against her fillings and the curly hair sticks to the back of her throat.
I could go on..........

Question

In the old days, didn't they used to use budgies in the mines to check for gas? Maybe cockatiels are like really sensitive budgies or something and they are being killed by the increased emmissions due to your decat.
Just a thought.

Just read this thread..LOL...

All joking aside, it probably is your fault

Birds, esp Cockatiels are very sensitive to low frequency noise - its like bats and sonar - but not the same.

You're decat exhaust will probably have caused it huge distress, such that it will have died

RAOTFLMAO at STI MAN thats one of the best i have heard for ages.

Simon you weren't trying to do a spit roast with it in the exhaust were you? Cause if you were that would explain why its dead

Silly cow, tell her to get double galzing or move her next one to another part of the house, ie further away from your garage.
