However two doors down the road we have a 'cat lady'. She has an
ever-changing population of semi-stray cats. Typically around a dozen
to 20. The main victims of this are the neighbours in between her and
us. But we also get frequent 'presents' left in the garden. And as I
guess you would expect, as I dig and clear areas and plant things,
they *love* the nice soft ground...

and the owner doesn't give two hoots.

Afraid so. :-/ The neightbour in between has formally complained to the
local health people more than once as the smell and state of her house and
property are pretty dire and he feels it is a serious health problem, etc.

Welcome to the newsgroup Jim and take no notice of those who appear to
be the 'owners' of uk.rec.gardening. Its just that they have nothing
better to do than take a swipe at postings they do not like.

Well if this is a 'done to death' topic covered in the FAQs, etc, then it
makes sense for me to read them and take that into account. I suspected it
would be a topic on many a gardener's mind... :-)

Slainte,

Jim
