While I was on vacation my neighbor built a fence on my property and blocked my windows

After the kids were asleep, Catherine visited a pet store and asked for something with a strong scent to attract animals. The clerk offered a powerful dog-training lure—exactly what she needed.

For several nights, she secretly applied it along her neighbor Jeffrey’s fence. Soon, the area swarmed with stray animals, many leaving smelly “gifts” behind. The stench became unbearable, and Jeffrey was furious trying to clean it, but the smell had already seeped into the wood.

Complaints rolled in, even from other neighbors. Eventually, Catherine saw workers taking down the fence. Her plan had worked.

While she watered her garden, Jeffrey approached, ashamed, and apologized for building the fence without permission. She accepted, reminding him that respecting boundaries is key to being a good neighbor. The fence was gone, their relationship improved—and Catherine had reclaimed what was rightfully hers.
