Reply to: Annoying cat

Dont waste a small fortune on those electronic cat repellants. I got one and when I looked out my window once there was a cat in front nodding its head about like it really dug the rhythm.

How about playing Cliff Richard CDs as a repellant? I am sure even a cat's musical taste can't be that bad.

I bought one of those based on your rec.
Can't get it to work though - when you turn the water on, the pressure seems too high and its drips out of the hose connector.

Our cat used to drink out the toilet bowl.

It was just taking the p1ss

All cats are annoying vermin. HTH.

PS I heard that thing about them not going where you had peed from a bloke in the garden centre queue a while back.

PS Also works on a number of other garden pests including foxes and squirrels.

Sounds like the beginning of a barbecue recipe.....

Even better the cat attacks squirrels.


Don't know if he eats them.

You could also put chilli powder and pepper down, as that did the trick when I had problems with neighbours cats in London.

My neighbour's cat rolls in it and seems quite happy having it there. (He's a nutter.)

The other neighbourhood cats just sneeze and give me dirty looks.

So don't presume it works with cats.

Water pistol. Just keep running out and apraying the bastard

Get a bigger cat.
Get a dog.
Build a higher fence.
Run very quickly at it while waving your arms and legs (is that possible?) about in a scary way.
Worry about something more important.

Didn't someone post a link to a motion detector water pistol on here long ago? Trouble is, that might scare off birds, the wife, oneself, etc., too.

Lion tulip. Seriously. Dig it into the border. Lasts for up to 3 months.

A saucer full of antifreeze will do the trick I hear

You are a scumbag.

Failing that get your own, then you won't have cattulip in your garden and your cat will just tulip in everyone elses
