How could anyone throw stones at this? Had to find a pic in black and white - I was so mad when they revealed that he was some sort of pink - nah, the orginal watchers watched in black and white!
some of these modern day cats have become lazy. they care so much about their appearance they dont like to keep their paws dirty, so they just do their business on the grass. u only find out when u step into something soft or a bad whiff follows u around the garden. it makes me so angry . i have tried so many products but when it rains, u start all over again. the worst time is the winter thru to spring when the ground is bare.
Chop up orange and lemon peel and sprinkle on your garden, by the gate, and problem areas. Cats hate it! Otherwise use lemon spray kitchen cleaner. I find this works really well. Good luck.
wouldn't you have to know which cat was guilty? unless you caught them at it, in which case you could toss the water at them. i've got several around me but only one is responsible for the mess left on the lawn. nothing seems to scare it off.
Footnote to my advice re deterring cats from the garden. I suggested using lemon kitchen spray, I didn't mean spray the pesky cats with it, but to use the spray on and around the garden and just outside the gate instead of or as well as using orange and lemon peel. It works very well.
Two ideas I've read. One is Citronella the essential oil, I dilute it a bit and spray it. It smells of citrus fruits and cats don't like it. Another one is Eucalyptus essential oil. Once again cats don't like it.Today I mixed the two added some water and sprayed everywhere. Because I had sprayed yesterday as well(it rained) the cat went on the lawn. Ugh!.I got it cleared up and used detergent in a bucket to 'wash' the area and then sprayed. I also use Cat -a -Pult spray. (I am determined).This week I am going to buy some bigger stones for my gravel area from a builders merchant and thoroughly spray them. I think I might also get some solar light for the garden and fill the gravel area even more with plants.It is easier with borders as you can put holly branches and rose tree pruning cuttings down to deter the cats but a whole gravel area is another matter as is the lawn. I am glad to learn about Jeyes Fluid soaked tea bags this sounds economical and easy to do. Anything to deter these cats( I do like cats as a rule but not when they dirty the garden and it is so disgusting).I am not a cat owner.If only these cats went in their own gardens!.

Ha! It made me laugh imagining folk chucking cat poo backwards and forwards.

chuckling away to myself...imagining asking neighbour to come round with cat version of poop a scoop. Your cat , your pop, clean it up please.
