:DIn answer to CCMillers question about a "Sticky", it doesn't really matter what you call the Thread as that's not the problem. It's, as Ziggy says, somebody goes OTT and starts suggesting methods that would harm a cat or even suggesting what they'd do to a cat if they caught it in the garden, so it's one of the threads that gets emotive and sometimes out of hand, not the best subject for a Sticky

Ziggy is, with me supporting him, taking a risk on letting this Thread continue, so let's see how it goes.:D:kittykiss::kittykiss::kittykiss:

Why don't you wee in a bottle, like one of those water bottles that have the squirty top lid, instead of running around with your dangly bits out????

Well put my friend

I've got very strong views on the cat problem but i'll not air them here, they are not directed at cats though.

Wee wee doesn't seem to bother the 2 resident cats & the one passing thru cat here, although it might be keeping Mr Badger away.

Twigs in the ground around seed beds with a cotton web tied to them works. Doesnt harm cats at all, they just don't like it.

What's the point in that? Then you have a bottle to either clean out or dispose of, and several extra steps in the process. Plus the risk of a terrible accident when you're just about to empty said bottle, but you get distracted and place the bottle on the ground, but then you get thirsty and pick up your pop bottle, now which is which:(

Hi ccmiller. Firstly you could try Coleus Canina,better known as ,'The Cat Chaser'.Cats Hate the Smell so it can be very useful If they are unwelcome visitors to your garden.
The Plants Are not winter hardy ,so bring pots indoors or take cuttings. .
Secondly, you could try Clueless1's Idea, They Tell Me The Prisons Now Are Great
With 50 inch flat screen T/v's And DVD Player/Recorders, and the Gymnasiums are Great:WINK1:.
