Prick of a neighbour

My daughter wanted a cat, so ofcourse we got her a cat 🤗 he’s an inside cat, gets fresh air parts of the day but he is mainly inside. So lastnight It was reasonably late (for him) to not be inside, so I went out looking in our yard and there were no signs, I went to bed thinking he might’ve fell asleep in my daughters room (he likes to hide & rest) anywho, my partner woke up hearing him after midnight and could hear our cat over at our neifhbours (grumpy old pr#ck) but thought it was to late to go get him & thought he’d stuck inside the gate n be back the next morning (then BH went to work all day) came home anetold me he heard our cat next door only for us to wake up the next day still worrying so I checked the pound website and HE TOOK OUR CAT TO THE POUND KNOWING IT WAS OURS!! Held him in his home throughout the night just to take him away, my daughter is devastated as she doesn’t know where he is and Is missing him like crazy! I get cats can be annoying in others yards but Atleast come tell me, talk it over first not keep our cat just to send him away 😭😭 will be calling first thing in the morning to bring our boy home!
