I need help!!!!!!!

I love cats but outdoor cats do wander. Couple of options: 1. see what your local pet store has that will scare the cats off 2. see what the local ordinances and your rights are in case you need to take action Don't kill the cats ( I assume you were kidding). It isn't their fault. Go after the owners if it becomes intolerable!

Oh dear this does sound dreadful. Poor you, it is bad enough having to clear up your own pet's business but having to clear another person's pets' muck is another matter. I have heard that there are sound systems that you can put in your garden that emitt high frequencies which cause the cat a bit of discomfort it doesn't really harm them but it tells them to go away. Can you get one of those? In the meantime can you talk to someone on your council? Or the State about this? This isn't being neighbourly and i don't agree with having to bring in the police but something needs to be done. If your neighbours are going to have pets then they have to train them to do their business in a litter tray or at least in their garden. They are probably delighted that they don't have to clean up after their pets, which isn't fair on you. And by the way, there are laws against this (as I'm sure you already know). Perhaps you need to 'threaten' them to take some action? Good luck and thanks for sharing this with us.

If you already talked to the neighbors, the next step I would take is call the authorities. And whenever you catch one of these cats on your property, take a hose and squirt them, they may stay away just so they don't get wet.. Or better yet, do you like dogs? Get a dog, and you won't have any cats bothering you again.. As for tearing up the trash, can you get one of those large plastic cans with a lid? They make them now to keep out anything from dogs to raccoons, it should keep cats out..

Ah thats a pity right here! I recently got a dog and she poops all over the place, luckily not in the neighbours garden! What suprises me is that your neighbours,supposedly friendly, are not doing anything to help your case and stop the cat doing its business! You should really go to the neighbours again and explain to them what their cat is doing in your garden, hopefully they will realize its a pain, even wrecking your pool! If they do nothing try get a small fence around to not let the cat in or even put down some of that smelly liquid to make your garden a less place for poop! Hope you get it sorted soon! Jack
