How do I stop my cat stealing food from the Chinese restaurant?

John S asked:


They give me the vegetable waste for my rabbits. But often my cat comes in and steals food when the staff are not looking! How to stop her as I am sure the manager will be upset if he finds out. The restaurant is about a quarter of a mile from my house but my cat treats it now like a second home.

    you might want to keep your cat inside for a while.
    I use to have one who went around begging like a homeless cat… I finally put a coller on her with a note “do not feed this cat… she has a home!!!”
    good luck eyJude

    I think if a cat starts stealing its going to be hard to break the habit, especially for alley cats or independent cats like yours. It sounds like your cat travels a lot (1/4 mile wow!). I doubt a spray bottle works, if it does, it is going to require a lot of effort from your side but you should try.
    Its either you are not feeding your cat enough or it just enjoys stealing scraps. Otherwise, why would the manager get upset if he gives the food away for your pet to eat, the cat belongs to you too after all. fasterthansatan515

    wow, thats funny. but seriously, the manager of the place is responsible for keeping the doors closed to the kitchen. not just for cats, but for rodents. leaving the doors open is how most restaurants get rat and mice problems, now they have a kitty problem. so technically, its not your cats fault! lol. nut buster!!!!
