Neighbor won't let me enter their back yard to get my cat.
My wife left window open, and the cat jumped out.
We spotted her running into the neighbor's back yard. It's gated though, and we didn't want to trespass, so I knocked on the neighbor's door.
They acted like a jerk immediately, before I could even say a word. "What do you want?", pretty aggressively.
I politely said hi, introduced myself, and told him our cat had escaped and ran into his yard. I asked (again, being friendly and polite) if we could go back and try to get her.
He said "no, stay out of my yard", and then closed the door before I could reply.
I'm just beside myself. Seriously dude? She's right there, I can SEE her! What kind of jerk behaves this way?
The new plan is to buy a live animal trap and put cat food in it, and check it every few hours.
But seriously. WTF dude. Just unbelievably shitty behavior towards a friendly neighbor.
Sorry, I just needed to vent.

edit 1: photos of the escaped convict. cat is considered armed and extremely cuddly. please call FBI tip line if sighted. https://imgur.com/a/CSXCXO3
edit 2: no sign of the cat anymore... I can't see her. I bought a live animal trap (cage with pressure plate) online ($60) to trap her, and will bait it with cat food and tuna, the trap arrives tomorrow. I've also bought a thermal camera ($160) to help try to locate her at night (last time she got out a couple years ago, I found her in a nearby tree grove in the middle of the night), it arrives this evening.
