Anti freeze des not deter cats, it kills them. A very painful

want them dead?
That's the responsibility of the owner. A cat that is adequately
fed by it's owner and kept under control wouldn't come into
contact with anti-freeze.
That is nonsensical, I'm afraid. Cats are hunters. Being fed by
the owner is neither here nor there and 'kept under control' can
only mean house arrest.
So is it responsible to keep such an animal in an urban
environment?

Your irresponsible is someone else's pet. and keeping 6 cats or more
isn not yet illegal. Cats are not considered 'controllable' in law.
Causing unnecessary suffering to an animal is illegal and suggesting
the use of poison because anyone doesn't like others' pets is
disgusting.

Your reply just confirms that it impossible to get a cat owner to take
responsible for their cats and it is evident that humane ways of
deterring cats from shitting in other peoples gardens doesn't work.
The ONLY recourse is obviously a little dose of their own medicine
containing something that will keep them away for good.

It's to be hoped next door's noisy, whining, screaming child doesn't
wander in and pick it up....in an urban environment.

That whining screaming kid is more likely to catch something nasty
from picking up the cat shit. It's your attitude that stinks. You
favour the actions of irresponsible cat owners over the health of a
child.


You know what Alan,
You have some very valid points apart from the insults and your willingness
to endanger human lives.
