mancity68 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Fed up of cleaning up cat poo from my flower bed. Stinky cat repelling powder is ok but - it stinks: so keeps me out of the garden too!Thinking of getting one of those automatic cat detecting water sprinklers. Has anyone used one? Any other brilliant non-stinky ideas?! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35451-keeping-cats-off-garden-ideas/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuff Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Was going to say lion dung but that probably stinks too. Works though. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35451-keeping-cats-off-garden-ideas/#findComment-671447 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KalamityKel Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 surely that would equal more poo no? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35451-keeping-cats-off-garden-ideas/#findComment-671477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pommie Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Is it definitely cats and not foxes? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35451-keeping-cats-off-garden-ideas/#findComment-671651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mancity68 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 Yup - definitely cats. A pump action water pistol every time we saw one did the job for a while - but we've clearly let our guard slip. Currently our tiny garden is being protected by chilli flakes, coffe grounds and a liberal sprinkling of ant cat stink powder. Effective but horrid. Really do fancy one of the motion detected sprinklers....

feuerberg Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 look into buying manure from a zoo, specificly, the cats exclosure. This should do the trick. Little cats don't like bigger cats.

malumbu Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Brought some poo into the house today on my shoes, so not happy. Thought I'd start a thread, but assumed that this would be something that had been aired before. Well knock me down with a feather, what perfect timing!We use a cat scarer with a laser light and a wailing sound. I then notice a fox in a neighbour's garden who shows a slight bit of interest. Cat's repsond quite slowly but eventually walk away. Obvious problem is that you have to be there. I fancied an air rifle, which I would use against the rats with long furry tails, but they cost quite a lot, and I'd probably get prosecuted for animal cruelty.We've thought about lion poo for some time, particularly knowing people from ZSL. But hey presto, search it on Google, and plenty of hits, ignore Amazon coz they are scumbags (IMO) and try somewhere like http://www.primrose.co.uk/silent-roar-cat-repellent-05kg-p-791.html?cPath=24_312&source=googleads&gclid=CPPGyoy_irkCFeXMtAodhBEAlA Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35451-keeping-cats-off-garden-ideas/#findComment-671748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
