Cats

Still haven't been able to try my perch fly, I've been fishing just not for perch, and haven't been doing very well anyway. So on the topic of cats, I have noticed recently that there are a few cats that end up in my yard, and sometimes at night they wake me up with their fighting or whatever it is cats do. Then today I go outside to pull some weeds, it seems they have been using my yard as a litter box. So now I am pretty mad, I mean these cats have collars on, they belong to people, and these people think it is okay to let their cats roam the neighborhood, doing their business where ever they want? Don't get me wrong, I'm not "anti-cat", well maybe a little, buts that's just because I'm allergic to cats. Now I am wondering if there is a way to repel cats, maybe start out by yelling at them, or spraying them with the hose, and if that doesn't work maybe an electrified fence with 25 foot guard tower so I can keep watch.

  3. Moth balls. There is not a single smallish mammal on the planet that likes that smell. I've used them to repel raccoons, opossums, and mice, so I believe they would help keep cats out of your yard

  5. Just get a super soaker, its a bit more humane than a hose and a bit easier to aim as well as more fun. I had to train my cat not to jump on certain furniture and I would spray him with a spray bottle of water every time he got up there.

  6. I heard that spreading urine around the edges of the property can keep them away. Silly, huh?

  7. There are no ways to control a cat. Cats are unnaturally attracted the people and places that they are least welcome.

  8. I think just chasing them out everytime they come in works, you just gotta keep on doing it until they learn
