Default Pond - fish - cats

I am in the last stages of finishing a pond, and hopefully will introduce
fish this weekend or next. But, lately I have noticed a neighbours cat
sitting on my garden wall....................looks like it could be problem.
I recall my dad using one of those electronic cat deterrent
things......totally useless. Any suggestions for humanely keeping the little
beggar away appreciated.

If you're introducing plants or have already done so, the fish will use
those to hide. However, you could try netting the pond for a while or,
if it's not too late, cementing in a grille which will stop the cat
using this as a buffet. Water pistols work well on cats.
