Allotments 4 All

whats the best way of stopping cats from pooing in my garden??  They keep digging up my front garden and leaving me parcels :(

.... and we're off!

This comes up from time to time... My preferred suggestion is to get a cat.

 ::)

Or a dog? I'm allergic to cats. >:( >:( >:( >:( but love them to bits!

I couldn't eat a whole one... at one sitting...  ::)

Not even if it came from the allotment ?

"Pests and Diseases" yup that's about right

so many cats, so few recipes

ok, thanks for the witty replies ::)

i have a dog but she's scared of cats :-\

Awww cute!

Same problem with cats here. I found the only way to stop them (humanely) is to feed them - just meat scraps under a bush will do, they don't mess where they eat.

Can you set up a cat litter tray? Would they prefer this to your beds?

Have you tried 'Silent Roar'? It's sold as a fertilizer; however, the pellets contain traces of lion dung which allegedly deters cats. I was given a sample and it has certainly done the trick, some cats still wander through the garden but they no longer leave deposits.

 I have mentioned this before
Buy some RENEDINE from a garden centre. Cats what cats. ;D

don't suppose Shoo Cat (Coleus caninus) works, by any chance. It's also Shoo Dog, unfortunately

had it in the garden centres under the name p*** off plant

Rosebud, if you mean Renardine, it's approval was revoked in 2005 and it became illegal to use it after 30 June 2005.

thanks everyone,  think i'll give silent roar a go :)

That little nozzle on the front is for using it like a spud gun. Make sure the neighbours see you using it. They will think you are shooting pellets and will keep their pets out of your garden.

No it ain't cruel, you will never hit a side of a barn with one of these let alone a moving target. But you watch those moggies up and run when they hear the crack of it going off.
