Defence against cat shit

[Fifyfomum]

Anyone got any solutions that work?

It is for a very small area, for some reason one of the local cats has taken to shitting in the small tufts of grass that have protruded through the concrete outside my garage. Its bizarre because there are gardens a plenty but this cat has decided to shit there. The children have both ended up with shoes covered in cat shit which has covered the car in cat shit. I am furious about it and need it stopped.

I have removed all the cat shit and the tufts of grass but I am concerned I will find cat shit just on the pavement now. Is there anything anyone has done to prevent it? I dont mind what lengths I have to go to. I just dont want it around my car!

Have you got a cat of your own who goes outside? (Your options are broader if you haven't is all.)

A gun

We had the same problem out the front of our house so I bought a bag of gravel and covered over the area they were pooping in, now they shit outside the neighbours house.

I have got a cat that goes outside but she doesnt go down to the garages at all.

I could definitely cover the area in gravel if you are saying they dont like gravel x

Have you got foxes at all? I ask because cats usually obsessively bury their poo and don't like to do it on hard surfaces.

It is definitely cat shit

Yes, use gravel but quite big gravel ( they will still shit in the fine stuff), worked for us.

Big pebbles... I am going to find the biggest fucking pebbles imaginable.

Oh noooo. Not another cat poo thread! It'll all end in tears...

Can you put a piece of chicken wire over the area, they hate treading on it.

One of my cats quite likes a bit of decorative gravel to crap in -Cotswold buff being the stone of choice

'another cat poo thread'

have I stumbled into a no go area?

Seriously though, I just need to know how to stop it crapping right there. I have removed all the mud n shit so hopefully that will be a big deterrent

you could spray the area with lemon juice and put orange peel in the edges of the area or install one of those sprinklers for gardens that is movement activated, try one of those scaredy cats ornaments that looks like a black cat with its back arched will look like theres a cat there, also put some holly on the dirt parts cats dont like holly as its spikey, also theres a product on the market made from lion poo which sounds daft but its supposed to discourage cats from coming in to your garden look online for that one,fill in the gaps with concrete i have a large patio and my cats dont go on there to toilet,

I think we have solved it with the removal of tufts of grass. I've seen the cat in question slink away from there looking not too pleased with himself and there was no poo to be found!
