We live in a new build and people are still moving in, so I think everyone's cats are marking their new territory.
Have had two try to sneak into the house when loading the car up, caught various cats strolling across the lawn and found pawprints on our buggy storage.
I really don't want to spend our time here aiming a water pistol out of the window to keep them off the lawn. We are going to start doing the garden up soon, plus DD will be walking age by summer so a cat poo free garden would be nice.
Have told DP about the sensors but he is sceptical, plus I'd like to get some hedgehog and bird boxes and I'm worried they will scare other wildlife away?
DP also not keen on fence spikes as he's worried it'll make us look a bit unfriendly to neighbours (the main cat lives next door).
What's the best thing to use? Are the cat statues with marbles for eyes any good? Currently browsing on eBay, there's sprays and gels etc. but also would rather have something permenant rather than having to keep re-applying it- otherwise I may as well use stick with water.
