After a week-long vacation, Catherine returned home to find her new neighbor, Jeffrey, had built a tall wooden fence right on her property line—blocking the beautiful view her two boys loved. As a single mom, Catherine was shocked and angry that Jeffrey hadn’t asked for her permission.
Jeffrey insisted he had a contract from the previous owners and needed the fence for privacy, but Catherine refused to accept it. With no time for legal battles, she came up with a clever plan: she bought animal attractant spray and doused the fence to lure neighborhood animals to mark it, turning Jeffrey’s fence into a smelly nightmare.
Jeffrey tried desperately to clean the mess every day, but the smell and visitors only kept coming. Eventually, embarrassed and defeated, he tore down the fence and apologized to Catherine for disrespecting her property.
In the end, Catherine protected her home and her boys’ view—and showed that standing up for yourself with a little creativity can teach a stubborn neighbor a lesson they won’t forget.
