A cheeky cat that is not ours keeps coming in our house through the window, as we have to leave it open for our cats while waiting for the cat flap to go in. How can I stop the cat from coming in without being cruel?

Open a different window at the other side of your house for your cats, get one of those sonic things that makes a high pitched noise that scares cats and dogs and put next to the old window on its lowest setting, maybe the stray cat will think you've stopped leaving it open and the noise will scare it away.

He likes it there. your other cat's are probably inviting him to stay. Cat's find you. you might be adopting another kitty cause word is out on the street:)

It's not his fault. Your cats would have told him if he was not welcome. So basically it's your fault for not teaching your cats to be more discriminating. :)

If your cats are getting along with the cat, and the cat has no collar or anything, take it in, get it checked with a vet for any diseases or whatever, and add it to your family. Or put a collar on it maybe even with a note for it's owners to see if they might help you out with the situation.

There is a piece of tape you can buy that cats hate. It is heavy and stays in place, but not sticky enough to stay on your cats fur. Put this in front of the door after your cats are inside and the other cat will stay away. After a week the cat will not enter your house. You can reuse the tape numerous times.
