How do I get rid of a stray cat.?

Question

I'm alergic & can't have this cat anymore on my outdoor furniture.

Please advise.

Answer 1

there's this stuff you can find at any petsmart or pet store, it's called catbgone or something like that, (it's a spray that cats don't like)

Answer 2

The kindest thing to do would be to take the cat to an animal shelter. Here in Aus we have the RSPCA where stray animals go so people who are looking for pets can adopt a stray pet.

If you are really allergic and cant physically drive it to an animal shelter then ring them up and see if they can come and pick it up (you will need to put it in a cat cage, just put some food in there to entice it).

Or u can always ask around and see if anyone wants a pet, do u know any elderly people that may like a pet or a family with kids?

Try putting an ad in the paper or putting up some flyers if u dont know anyone to ask.

Its a shame that u are allergic coz pets sometimes choose their owners by hanging around, thats how we have our 2 cats, they chose us! And that way u know they love you as much as u love them.

But as u allergic, try the ideas I suggested, at least that way u are being kind to the cat and not just dumping it or hurting it like some people do.

Goodluck with it!

If you go to a pet supply store, like PetCo or PetSmart, they have this stuff in a spray can called "NO," and when you spray it on furniture, cats and dogs leave it alone. If that doesn't help, cut up some lemon or orange slices and place them around the furniture. Citrus stuff smells to cats like poop smells to us--in other words, really really bad. The cats will avoid the area that, to them, stinks. We used that method to keep our cat out of our Christmas tree last year.

Another thing that would help would be to remove or contain things that might have brought the cat there in the first place. Buy garbage cans with tight-fitting lids. Get an exterminator to your house if you have mice or rats.

Unfortunately, you aren't going to be able to totally rid your outside furniture of animals. Your furniture IS outside, after all, and animals rarely respect a human's delicate sensibilities.

Answer 4

Ignore the violent idiots. They'd probably do that if a lost child showed up at their house. Call the ASPCA. They have people who trap strays humanely and quickly. Or just don't feed it and it will get the picture. Just call the shelter or you can set a trap yourself. It's really easy and honestly it makes you a good person because that cat will now find a home. Or I guess you can hurt if your IQ is low.

Answer 5

is the cat a nice cat? Try and rehome it first of all. We just took on two cats of a friends last year because she could not keep them and we love them to death. You may be able to find a friend who can take them. Otherwise take them to your local humane society - an animal organisation which doesn't generally put the animals down but tries to rehome them. Last resort get them put down but only if you have made every effort to rehome them first. If you take them to a humane society give them a donation also for their efforts. Pets can be a big drain especially if you are allergic or just don't enjoy them but be responsible by taking all the positive steps you can for them because in the end they are defenceless dependant animals.

Answer 6

squirt gun. There's other things you can do: use febreze to get rid of the smell, and get a dog. There is a product you can get from the pet store that keeps pets away. Pet-be-gone or something like that. I use it to keep the dogs from crapping on my lawn. Maybe you can use it to keep that cat away from your yard, also. It costs about 11-13 bucks a carton. Cheapest thing: squirt gun. Definitely works and it doesn't harm the cat (or little brother).

Answer 7

call the local authorites and tell them you are allergice to the cat and have them take it off also if they dont do anything have someone anyone take it off somewhere and dump him way far away another town or something or have someone take it to the vet or humane society i hate for anyone to kill it all though I hate cats!lol You could poison him I suppose But I think the first part is the best thing to do Good Luck and hope you get this problem solved the possessed little pests!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

get on your freecycle.org site and post this in your group. Do you know what freecycle is? is a group on yahoo which every city should have. and you post things that you don't want to go in the garbage or have no need for anymore. I bet you within 2 seconds flat that someone would love to take your cat from you. DO NOT SHOOT IT.

Answer 9

Bring in your furniture or cover it with plastic. Make sure there is no food anywhere around so the cat won't have extra reason to stay around. Spray it with water, everyday.

Answer 10

Petfinder.com, a local shelter, the vet will often find new homes for stray kitties

Answer 11

1.Well first you need to get some medicine that when you go outside it will not effect anything.
2. You need to get someone to help you sell the cat or you have another option, you can call the pound but I wouldn't do that please don't do that one.
3. Please be a sweet person and get someone to help you sell the cats so they can have a home and leave you alone forever.
do this please it works
