Cats crapping on my lawn

[bodgit]

Next doors cat has started crapping on my lawn and the dam thing has diarrhea. For the last three night it crapped three times on my back lawn. I've bought one of these from ebay 230691198405 the thing is supposed to emit sonic noises to scare it away.
They have 6-7 cats which is way too much for anyone and since my dog died we have had the dirty B******* peeing on the front door and five times in my car air intakes which stunk my car out for days.
Anyone know if those sonic things work or any other way to keep them away.

Light off one M80, just once, and I can guarantee it won't return.


(and will be spending the next moth trying to remove it's arse from around it's shoulders)

a friend of mine who was into paintballing decided to use the neighbours cat for target practice. Seemed to do the trick for him!

obviously i could never condone that sort of thing!

[AfroP]

not sure if the sonic thing works or not but orange peel and citrus is hated by cats
a plastic coke bottle filled with water also seems to do the trick, although that may just work for dogs

I can only think of a BBQ

They have also ruined £50 worth of plants sleeping on them. New spikes stop them doing that now.

Dress as a giant dog and wait for the next cat to show its devious face...pounce out from behind the shed barking!! If it doesnt work it will def be worth the sight for the neighbours

Never used that particular sonic thing, but yes they normally work quite well, we’ve had a couple of them. They can also be quite painful to kids ears too.

In the short term just soaking the lawn with the hose pipe at night might work, as it’s not gonna dry too fast this time of year and most cats hate going near wet stuff. Good excuse to get a water gun too!

go to local zoo and get some tiger poo,it will keep cats away.a mate of mine kept picking it up and put it in an old bucket with water in it he then set a trap and captured the cat in a box and threw the bucket contents all over the cat.it didnt come back and think about when the cat snuggles up to its owners.another idea is put cat in boot drive for about 20 miles and kick it out,and it wont find its way back

When next doors cat did that to me I just used to pick it up with a trowel and flick it back over the fence, it didn't have the squits though....

Since then I've taken to scaring the bejesus out of them through different methods (one of them liked sitting and urinating just below an upstairs window so he had a bucket of water dropped on him.....) and that works as they don't see it as a safe place to hang out.

I haven't thought of mounting a scope on my TLR 22 -
- but do you suggest an overhand or underhand throw?

We had the same with a cat that would sit on top of the car and scratch everypanel getting off. Tried lots but ending up "relocating" it. It may seem harsh but enough is enough.
Just do it and dont tell the mrs

I think relocating the cards shit back over their garden, preferably on the back door step would be good.... I wouldn't want to hurt the cat though....

[Phil Channon]

I had the same problem.
I tried the sonic gadget but the cat would just sit and look at it.

The cat was not the brightest and I spotted it crapping on my lawn so I played nice and it came over to me. So I picked it up and proceeded to rub its face in its own shit.
Its not come back since.

I was told as has been already said above,the only thing that works is manure from a bigger cat, ie- tiger,lion etc
I tried everything when i lived in a culdi sac,(cat safe environment so most of the neighbours had the bastard things) few years ago & i tried everything from sonic emitting gadgets to pepper dust..nothing worked.

Google 'pussy tazer'...you never know

I suppose that's an idea if you happen to have some lion shite handy, but personally I don't know of anyone that owns a lion - and I bet nobody else does either.

[bodgit]

Lion poo pellets are on ebay £10 lasts about 2-3 moths. Scares the crap out of normal cats apparently but somethings beat this one to it.
