there's a plant referred to as Coleus Canina (additionally ordinary as Scaredy Cat Plant) which has purposely been been created to repel cats from gardens. Experiments with over 3 hundred vegetation have now produced the final deterrent. Cats, canines or perhaps foxes will ward off the Pee-off plant because it incredibly is affectionately ordinary. This beautiful Coleus has astonishing foliage and small, beautiful spikes of blue vegetation interior the summertime, and releases a stench that cats won't have the capacity to stand. fortuitously it basically smells to the human nostril while touched! Annual, yet can truthfully be propagated and cuttings saved in a frost-unfastened place over iciness. vegetation must be ordinary formerly the scent is released, be in drier quite than moist soil and planted each a million-2 metres (36 inches aside). presented as cellular-raised vegetation. extra plant info; 0.5-hardy Annual vegetation: August to September height: 24 inches place: solar or Partial color you need to be waiting to locate this plant at a backyard centre regionally or online. stable success.

there are two ways to stop cats from messing your garden one is a bottle of stay off which you can get from any pet shop or you can get some cat nip and some pyracanther from your local garden centre plant them next to each other cats will role in the cat nip but get spiked by the pyracanther they very rarly come back after that

They sell various repellents in pet shops like pepper, which is sprinkled on the patches the cat enjoys. Try spraying with a water pistol every time you catch them. They will associate peeing on your garden with being sprayed, and should learn.

I had that problem last year in my herb garden. I went to Menard's and bought a plant they labeled as "Cat Be Gone", and I still have no problems with cat scat. I also bought two plants for my veggie patch they labeled "Bunny Be Gone", and that worked too! (I have a Bunny living under my garden shed..about 4 feet from the garden)

I have 2 dogs so didn't think I would have a problem with cats, but they just walked along the fence and shook their tails at my dogs, as if to say ha! ha! can't reach me!
I tried everything I could think of to discourage them, as all my plants were getting we-ed on and ruined, but nothing worked ,until I bought from my local Kleeneze rep. a black tin cat with eyes made of marble, and wallah!! success, it seems that the cats were frightened of it as they thought it was a big black tom guarding it's property.
It was so effective my dogs used to bark like mad at it until I moved it off the fence and placed it in with one of my large plant pots, where it has stayed for ages, and they now accept it as part of the background. By the way I am not bothered at all with cats now.

I have a cat and I put his cat litter under a shrub in the corner of my garden, away from the house, so I can't smell it! Other cats take one whiff and vamoose. If you don't have a cat the answer about lemon peel is good...that works too.

Orange or lemon peelings, mothballs, pepper are all supposed to work also you can get things like bird scarers, those little windmill things or chimes which are also supposed to be good.. Or a intermittent sprinkler would do the trick.
There is some plant that they really hate but I can't remember the name of it, I have seen it on sale in mail order catalogs though.
Or you could get potted catnip and give it to all your neighbours .....

A cheap and easy way to prevent such unwanted visitors is to place several empty plastic bottles around the effected are and fill them with water. I think the sight of the water and its reflection puts cats off. I have heard of a few people trying this and it working.
Maybe worth a go!

Strays use my flower garden in front all the time and the flowers are blooming up a storm! It's actually good for them.
Unlike dog pee, cat pee and poop is a pretty good fertilizer. I don't mind them doing it, the garden sure benefits.
