Are you sure it’s cats as they tend to bury it. Having said that you can buy a powder that you sprinkle over the lawn or places you want to deter the cats from.

@Scottishlassie01 yes, I try and shoo them off when I see them. They are ruining my garden

Water sprinklers, rose/holly cuttings on the soil, a dog, your own huge half feral cat.

Don't waste money on lion shit, it doesn't work.

My cat used to dump and run on my lawn🙄, they don't all bury it.

It helps a lot to keep the grass short. They don’t usually use laws but they will if the grass is long enough.
