Following on from that other cat thread, apparently there is a plant to stop the feckers crapping in your garden

[oliveoil]

article here

it is called Coleus Canina

has anyone tried it?

come on, we are talking cat shit here, someone must be interested

Yup. Didn't work.

I tried that once, before I got a cat of my own.

Next door's cats ate it.

pah

I hate cats

NOTHING works on stinky b@st@rd cats

Shall I tell you that it's not cats, acksherley, because cats bury it and it's probably foxes or hedgehogs or small Cornish pixies on their holidays in your garden?

and supposedly cats don't poo on lawns but in borders

well nobody has told the disgusting creatures in our neighbourhood thatb

I think you'll find that's 'pictsies' if they're Cornish

cats sit on the wall looking at me

I hiss I HATE YOU and the neighbours no doubt are thinking freeeeeeeeeeeeeak

what use are they really? They stalk about, crap in MY garden, and are neither use nor ornament as my mother would say

Oh the old "cats don't poo on lawns" chestnut.

Yes they blardy well do!

I think it's pisk...pixcs...Episcopalians actually.

Yes, it's Episcopalians crapping on your lawn.

we don't have a lawn

we have an 'attractive outdoor space' (ie crappy yard)

they crap in my border thing which did have lovely flowers in, but their shit ruined that

Could you tell my cat that she should bury it, please? Because she doesn't listen to me when I tell her. She digs herself a hole, then craps on the pile next to the hole, then fills the hole back in from the other side, making another hole.

And, contrary to what you may have heard, some cats do crap in their own gardens ...

One of next door's cats always heads for the highest point he can find and craps on that ... he's particularly fond of my water butt.

Next door's cats ate your cat, WWB?

you see me .. I stomp around by our fences shouting about how much I hate the bloody cats and their disgusting unhygenic poos and how their bloody owners should get soddin' litter trays

it has seemed to have worked .. only had one poo in about 3 weeks

hissing is not violent enough

lion poo can be bought sterilised from garden centres

however IT DOESN'T PIGGIN' WELL WORK

footballs do

No, they ate the plant that they were supposed to run away from.

my girls can't play unattended in the garden though

can I barb wire my wall or is that against the law?

Cats bring in mice you know, my friends regularly do for her, many a time has my friend been awoken by her moggy presenting her with a live mouse, only for it to scamper across her duvet to die of shock in some god forsaken corner of her room to stink out the place a few days later..... So the owners of the moggies who shit in your garden are getting theirs too

OTOH, friend also had a cat who used to bring her perfectly cooked sausages and steaks.....I'm sure friend and cat were terribly popular amongst the neighbours

I knew that really, WWB. I am being silly.

I know

You can get spiky stuff to put along the top of your wall. My garden doesn't lend itself to it but yours might, olive. I'll try and find you a link.

my sisters cats bring in vowls, I think that is how you spell it

again, why would you have one? I get enough grief looking after children, let alone an animal that only wants me for food and has an evil eye
