Wildlife wrecking garden

Would love some advice please. As much as I love animals, they're absolutely destroying my lawn and planters. Culprits are:

Foxes burying chicken legs that my neighbour constantly gives them in the lawn.
Squirrels burying nuts
Neighbours' cats pooing and making huge craters in the lawn and planters to cover it up

Ideas:

-you yourself could also leave out non toxic food for the foxes, such as chicken leftovers, or even a slice of bread at night. Then the foxes will learn to gather from your lawn, and not bury food in it. Better still, rig up a night cam and film them to enjoy watching the next day.

use an eco friendly deterrent. They’re some based on capsicum pepper, and similar. Not sure how effective they are.

However, why not relax and enjoy it? We get foxes, badgers, squirrels, birds, the occasional mouse and we love them all.
