Burglar cat does a B&E

Apparently we have a new neighbor and their cat has decided he wants to live at our house. The problem with that is he is chasing our boys away. He also got in late one night and jumped up on our bed and went after Celina. We were sound asleep when it happened. I'm wondering if this cat has a thyroid problem. It's either that or maybe the new neighbors aren't feeding him enough. He's always ravenous when I feed him. He's friendly to people, but not other cats. For now we have to keep the kitty door closed. Hopefully he'll calm down over the next few weeks so he can learn to hang with rest of the gang.

1. Caution: If he is really skinny, he could have feline AIDS or feline leukemia, which are contagious to other cats.

2. I know about that. I have to talk to the neighbors, but I have been under the weather.

I know they have another cat and a couple of dogs too. I doubt this cat has any of that stuff, but I will speak to them soon. I think this cat is young and still pretty thin. Our guys were lanky when they were young too. I hope he's healthy. He seems sweet once he gets to know you.
