Glyphosate is as good as any. Cheapest own brand from a DIY store with
largest %
glyphosate should do it. The active ingredient is relatively harmless to
mammals
and birds. But incredibly lethal to green plants - it targets a pathway
that
only occurs in photosynthesis. Unless your cat is green it should be safe
enough.
The real formulations for garden use also include wetting agents (powerful
detergents) that are not so nice and have killed people who drank a bottle
full
of concentrate. Treat all garden chemicals with respect.
Nothing is completely safe. You can potentially expire by drinking too
much pure
water.

Thanks Martin,
