my neighbours cat keeps cr.apping on my lawn,so Ive been feeding it cat food with ground glass?

Question

It seems not to be suffering any ill effects yet-does ground glass not affect cats, or am I not using enough?

Answer 1

YOUR A FRIGGIN RETARD,YOU NEED HELP!!

Answer 2

Hi there...how about instead offering some other humane alternatives to stop the cat from eliminating your lawn--if this is serious question hidden in jest. Consider the following:

Common odours that are effective deterrents for cats are:

Citronella works best for cats as well as citrus scents such as orange or lemon (primarily towards cats), cayenne pepper, coffee grounds, pipe tobacco, lavender oil, lemon grass oil, citronella oil, peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil, and mustard oil.

"Havahart's Cat Repellent" uses capsaicin pepper and oil of mustard as its active ingredients. It repels by both taste and odor, has a lemon scent.

Every animal responds differently to each of these. Some will not be phased by them and others will be quite revolting.

For training purposes they are applied on items that are to encourage avoidance behaviours and not for use with a squirt bottle as they could harm the eyes or respiratory system. Test each substance and observe to see which works as a deterrent so that accidental injestion does not occur as some could then be fatal.

Coleus plants can be effective, but every cat responds differently so it is uncertain without experimenting.

Many people believe mothballs work, however they are considered toxic and should NOT be used. Here's more information on this:
http://www.cvm.uiuc.edu/ope/enotes/showarticle.cfm?id=89
MOTHBALLS are toxic to cats which contains the ingredient Naphthalene. Mothballs are approximately twice as toxic as paradichlorobenzene, and cats are especially sensitive to naphthalene. Signs of ingestion of naphthalene mothballs include emesis, weakness, lethargy, brown-colored mucous membranes and collapses. Paradichlorobenzene mothballs may cause GI upset, ataxia, disorientation, and depression. Elevations in liver serum biochemical values may occur within 72 hours of indigestion.

Answer 3

Instead of taking it out on the cat, please talk to the neighbor, or feed the neighbor glass if they don't listen to you. Glass can cut the cats internal organs, cause bleeding, intense pain, imagine how you would feel. The cat doesn't know better, spray it w/ the water hose anything but actually hurting it, maybe if the neighbors see that their cat keeps coming home wet then they'll keep it inside and problem solved.

Answer 4

That is animal abuse, and you can be put in jail for doing that to another living creature. If you have an issue with your neighbors cat, talk to your neighbor, and see what they say about it. If it keeps using your yard as its personal litter box, put up a fence, or scare the cat away when it comes near. But without using violence or feeding it glass.

Answer 5

That is an awful thing to do. You can buy scoot from garden centres to keep the cat away or the best thing which does work very well is to rub the cats nose into it! They never come back a second time.

Answer 6

Just hope you dont p*ss your partner off or they may put ground glass in your dinner, you evil horrible excuse for a person!! Bring back hanging because you should hang and I would definately come and watch, hopefully all the neighbourhood cats would too!! Get a life!!!

Answer 7

What you are doing is cruel and is illegal. I don't know how you get on with your neighbours, but if you are found out your reputation locally will be appalling.

There are cheap and effective sprays to repel cats. Ask at a local pet shop if necessary, but any large supermarket should stock them.

Answer 8

Where did you get that idea from?? How much money have you wasted on that. You are feeding the cat it will poo more!!

I throw things at my neighbours cat - shoes, tins of beans anything that comes to hand really. It eventually got the idea and stays out of the garden. Or in the summer use the hosepipe.

Answer 9

I think your sick and should be reported to the rspca and cats protection league. Try sprinkling pepper on the lawn Ive been told they don't like that.

Answer 10

If i was your neighbor I would make cookies with ground glass and cyanide, just to see if you had any ill effects.

I hope you get busted for animal cruelty and go to jail.

Answer 11

I think that that's positively cruel! Why don't you just buy a cat-scarer to keep the cat away from the garden? They work really well.
I hope that someone reports you to the RSPCA
