Can you somehow make the bench unusable? I get that might be considered cruel but you shouldn't be scared in your own home or to be able to step out of it.
put poop on it
If he's a drunk he may not notice
Maybe keep stacking Miss Fluffy's poo poos under there until he's gone
I'm a drunk and notice poo (usually).
Yeah but are you a part-time drunk or a full-time one because the full-time ones will piss and shit themselves and still carry on mingling with the public.
That's up for debate :(
Oh dear
people will tolerate their own but will run from the other poo
😂
As a cat slave, I don't really have a choice here.
yeah but it's different when it's your own
It goes against my beliefs - I’m really not a fan of anti-homeless architecture. Unfortunately I don’t want to give him a yoga mat for padding either because that encourages him to use that spot…
There’s a disused flat nearby with a porch he could move to but I don’t think he knows it’s vacant. Also it’s still very close to me :/
It’s not your responsibility to make it a hospitable place for him. You’ve already done the right things to get help for him, and now you need to look after your own safety. Make it unwelcoming for him to sleep there, he may move on if you’re lucky.
Yeah, I absolutely don’t want him here. He’s a threat.
It was just awful to watch someone sleeping in that cold. Really stressful even second hand
