Rocky the fearsome feline has been slapped with an ‘animal ASBO’ - after biting people and squatting in neighbours’ homes.
The fearsome feline faced antisocial action after scratching an outside fence, biting two people and entering residents’ homes and refusing to leave.
Owner Samantha Davies has been told by Rotherham Borough Council to keep her four-year-old pet indoors after her local authority received verbal and formal complaints.
Samantha, 35, said the council action has been ‘ridiculous’. She said: 'Even if Rocky did do these things, it’s hardly what you’d deem to be antisocial behaviour.
'But where’s the proof? I haven’t seen a shred of proof that any of this even happened. I think the council need to concentrate on doing their job properly instead of following up rubbish like this.
Samantha’s next-door neighbour, David Willoughby, 65, said: 'He comes over to our house quite a bit, but we don’t have a problem with him. 'He did bite me once, but that was because he got stuck and was frightened. Sam was very apologetic about it afterwards and I didn’t have a problem.

Do you think the council have overreacted or do you think they were right to take the concerns of neighbours seriously?
How much do you spend on yourself?
