I love cats don't get me wrong I have 2 of my own, but I don't want them in my flowerbeds either, neither do my clients!
Many of my clients have been working on their yards (curb appeal) so potential buyers will have the very best first impression of their homes. Many of my clients are fighting the exact same fight I am (the neighborhood CATS)
Recently after many years of planning and waiting ($$$$) I finally was able to implement my landscape design for my backyard (pictures included) and YES I got a whole unit (7yards) of bark delivered to cover all the hundreds of dollars worth of landscape fabric, it looks so good and I just love how it turned out,
My biggest problem is THE 17 NEIGHBORHOOD CATS, they must have some type of sonar and it has directed them to the biggest and most elaborate litter box of all (my yard), I could just scream!
I went on line and looked for cat repellent and found something it sounded great, it touted Coyote/Fox Urine as a main ingredient they said this formula is incredibly effective in repelling domestic and feral cats and that by applying these granules it would quickly re-direct cats to change their territorial travels and stop using my flower beds and gardens as their litter box.
Well since applying that cat repellent my yard is even more attractive then before to the neighborhood cats, my husband just laughs and say's, "The fox and coyote urine probably just gave all the cats permission to come in and use the facilities…"
I am determined to cure this problem, so my very next purchase will be a motion activated sprinkler system called scarecrow, not only do I think this will solve my dilemma but it should bring many opportunities to get footage for America’s Funniest Videos too...
Wish me luck and if you know of any other options please share!
