Shotgun?


I think you can get a spray repellent and some sort of ultrasonic alarm.

They like hot places to sit so move the car out the sun also cats don't use there claws to walk or sit once they have found a nice place to sit they tend to return make the car nice a slippy with wax or polish is your best bet or just move the car

They don't like citrusy things and tend to stay away from things that smell like citrus.

I think I'll try the citrus first, I think it's when it jumps up in the back its scratching. I can't really move the car anyway as its either there or on the street which is tight

Hahaha bless ya!! Yeah man I'd be pissed if my neighbours cats were doing it! Try and get photos to prove it before confronting them though. My two cats are house cats

The guy seen the cat do it when I seen it was when I was changing the bulbs. It was inside I chased it out it ran into my works van then jumped on the roof. It's so annoying jumps in my windows.

Half full bottles of water will stop them using the garden as a toilet. As for the cat's scratching the car I can't really comment as my cat is forever sitting on my car. He even likes going for drives. In the 8 years the worst he's done is left dirty prints on the windscreen.

My problem is my front garden (car is in the garage) and the 2 dogs see off any cats that try to enter the back garden.

annoying when you spend hours planting and cleaning up all the rubbish etc only to go out next morning and find cat pooh here there and everywhere.

That's very true I can't understand why the dirty a-holes can't clean it up.

Round our way people have resorted to sticking signs up as there's a few that leave the muck on the pavements and never clear it up

Photograph them and report it, they'll soon stop when they get the fines!!

There's a trail around by me that dog walkers often visit. They hang poo bags on the same tree then the council come around and collect them at the end of the day. Think it's because there's no bins and I've seen loads of people doing it.
