Although I worked out a way to discourage cats from using my garden as a tiolet Jack Frost has decended on us and rendered my idea useless (I rigged up a sensor in the front gerden connected to aa electrically operated water switch under my sink. So when the cat came to poo it got soked instead. But because Jack Frost has appeared my idea won't work. Frozen solid).

What I wanted to know, are cats affected by high frequentcy noise as dogs are. I was thinking of those whistles that humans cant hear. Or is there some other trick I can use untill the warmer weather arrives.

I must appologise to the members in this group for posting what seems like old news. After I posted a whole can of worms on this subject erupted before me.
Once again I'm sorry to have waisted your time.

? Where, I cant see it. Anyway the answer is yes, and you can buy devices
that emit high frequency sounds that only cats and also teenagers (so they
tell me!) can hear. I have one and it works pretty well.

Get one of those pump up garden sprays, fill in with light vegetable oil
and plenty of ground up dried chillies.

Rig up a simple trigger device that the cat sets off when irresponsible
owners let their pets stray to destroy your garden.

Bringing up teenagers is like trying to nail jelly to a tree

Apparently people are using such things to keep teenagers away...

I've just bought a dog whistle to call my cat in at night.

I blow it right in to his ear and he doesn't stir one bit.
Looks like I need another way to call him in i.e. Hot ham.

No. You've got it wrong.

You let your cat OUT at night, so it can crap all over your neighbour's
gardens and then catch the birds in the morning. It would appear you have a
lot to learn.
