Hey Everyone!
I hope I posted this question in the correct forum. We recently moved to a new city and have discovered that animal control bylaws are extremely lax. One of our neighbours has about a dozen cats in his garage that roam the streets at various times throughout the day. It also turns out that practically everyone else on the street has outdoor cats too. I've already discovered lots of animal droppings in the old gardens on the property. So, are there any safe methods to deter cats from using the garden as a litter box? Even better, would be if anyone has suggestions for keeping the cats off our property entirely. Fences don't seem to be very popular in this close-knit community (not that they'd stop a crafty kitty, anyway!).
Thanks in advance for your assistance!
