I have spent quite a bit of time and money getting my garden ready for the summer, however local cats etc seem to have taken to digging up my plants.

Buy some decorating stones or shingle and arrange on the pots. Or discretely add some small sticks around the pot to make it impossible to stand in (for a cat anyway). This works well and looks better than the garden being full of the contents of your bin.

To keep the cats from using the pots as a litterbox, I place pinecones on the top of the dirt. Have used plastic forks stuck into the dirt also, tines up. I also sprinkle the cheap cayanne pepper (from Dollar stores) on the leaves and dirt.

You could buy some netting to cover the plants or buy some cat repel-ant stuff from the local garden centre

You can put a layer of mesh wire or screen over the dirt in the pot. That take the animals fun away from digging.

Sprinkle onions round the plants or put orange peel round the plants... cats hate the smell and also you are not harming them

Cats don't like the smell of orange peel so try chopping up some of this and scattering it in your pots

The best way to keep unwanted creatures out of your garden
is to purchase a packet of "Lion's " poo.it is available from very good garden centres.

a cheap and easy way is to fill up clear plastic bottles with water place them in front of the pot because a cat will not pass its own reflection

Buy a spray can of CANAC, it works wonders. Stopped my dog from constantly uprooting my fuchsias and stopped my cat from removing the seal from around the double glazing.

3 possibilities: a million. save them interior in any respect circumstances. 2. practice your cat to a harness/leash and stay out with him. 3. construct/purchase a cat enclosure and placed your cat in there. Its YOUR duty to regulate you puppy - dogs or cat - so save your cat on your backyard in any respect circumstances.
