Loan of my 3 Bedlington Terriers??? :lol:

Loan of my 3 old rabbit traps found in shed.

Sure there is a product called Scoot! or something which is supposed to be a deterrent (The one for Possums is called Poss Off! :happythumbs: )

Grease on fences ( did this in the UK and had some giggles about it - neighbours cat returns back home and walks on new cream fabric lounge!)

:rolleyes:

Sprinkle citrus peel around your boundary.....they are supposed to hate it :happythumbs:

Does your local council allow cats to be out overnight? In some council areas this is illegal.

If I was there you could definitely borrow my Border Terrier - she wouldn't let them near!
Try a local pet shop see if they've got anything that keeps them off your garden?

Aha! Citrius peel, eh? Interesting.

We tried cloudy ammonia on recommendation. It's cheap and one breath is enough to burn your nasal passages. The cat turned its nose up at it.

The next thing we've tried is something the pet store sold us. That has to be re-applied every 12 hours and we're already half way through the bottle after just a single use!

Cat's are allowed out where we are Rudi. We have a cat and keep her indoors - all day and night. This male cat is incredibly persistant, but he doesn't know what he's letting himself in for. Ours might be small by comparison but the fight in her is quite unbelievable. She goes for him through the glass as they face each other off. He just wants some nooky and she's out with the claws as ferocious as you'll ever see a cat. At 5am each morning the noise is a bit unbearable... in the house!

If method two fails I'm off to buy a dozen oranges. :happythumbs:

I also have cats - one is outdoors all day but in at night, one goes out when she feels like it, but not often and only during the day and the baby is a stay at home cat. She belongs to my 6 year old and I dare not let her out!!!!

Our local Post Office has a new helper. It's a six week old kitten. Susan, the postmaster, discovered it on her front lawn when it was just a couple of weeks old. Dumped may be, but unable to help itself she took it under her wing and now, rather than leave it at home she brings it to work with her, kept safely on the other side of the counter!
