Naughty cats in gardens

[Zeppelin]

Does anyone know of a way to keep a neighbours cat out of the garden? Its
always digging holes and scratching around the plants.
I dont have a dog, so the simple solution is gone. Some one told me to put
pepper in the garden beds??
Anyone have any ideas?

Try and blast a few times with a hose pipe, after a couple of soakings they
tend not to come back.

You can eithe sprinkle around orange peel or buy special plants that
animals hate.

Contact your local Council first. Many Councils have by-laws prohibiting
stray or roaming cats and can supply traps and will remove any stray
cats captured.
