Please explain what this means, David.

Coolant contains ethylene glycol, cats find this attractive,
unfortunately for cats it is rather toxic.

Which is why bitrex is often added to make it unpalatable to children
as well as pets.

It used to taste sweet, cats liked it.
There is now a bittering agent added.

People have turned very fascist about dogs pooping in public places and
yet
I find cats infinitely more annoying as people digs generally do not come
into my garden, unless invited.

My little dog is always on the lead when we go out. I'm lucky as she don't
poo or wee in the street. Even so, I take poo bags.
When I casually mentioned to the cat man next door about his cats crapping
in my garden he laughed in my face and said "Ha, that's the way it goes
mate".
I have found all cat owners to have the same ignorant attitude.
He knows that I will kill his cats if I manage to get my hands on one whilst
it is crapping on my property.
He knows that I fling the shit back into his garden.

Cats usually bury their poo. Young dog fox cubs are ejected from their
families round about late August. I suggest it might be them.

Doesn't fox poo have a very "foxy" but not unpleasant smell and a
pointed end?]Depends if the cubs have managed to to catch anything.

Cat poo smells foul.

Agreed, but they bury it.

You just don't understand cats.

You don't understand that I own my land and I do not want the ****ing things
shitting on my land.
Why do you not understand this?

I have never noticed any heavy aroma when scooping the stuff out of
the cat's litter box. Occasionally a slight sweetish sort of smell but
nothing I'd call foul. Maybe it's down to diet?

Maybe it's because you are used to the smell of shit in your house?

Cat litter contains deodorant and dessicant. Otherwise cat litter
boxes would stink the house out.

How disgusting to have a cat's toilet in your home.
Smell or no smell, shit is shit.

I'm getting a tad tired of the number of piles of mouldy cat[1] poo
appearing of late.

[1] Almost certain it's a cat - there are sometimes vague attempts to

too small for a fox.

There are 3-4 cats that appear regularly.

I know it's not going to be easy - but I was wondering if there is a
chemical I can spray around the permimeter that is either deeply
unpleasant
to cats or makes them regard it as marked territory?

I don't mind the odd cat, but they are becoming a right pest lately.


I have tried everything and I mean everything in my front garden and failed.
I now just pick the crap up and chuck it back over the fence into the cat
man's garden. He knows this.
He also knows what I will do to his cats if I get my hands on them whilst
crapping in my garden.
Pepper seemed to work for a while. Good luck.

I have numerous cats as you know, and I don't care what they do in other people's gardens. In fact I prefer they don't leave it in mine.

If it was possible to train a cat to do so, I'd get them to use the toilet, and they're not stinking my house out with a litter tray (and prefer to do it outside anyway).

My next door neighbour but one curses me every time he sees me, but there is nothing he can do about it, and I like this.

Interesting concept. Yes, you own the land, but all kinds of wildlife
are your tenants that you can't evict.
