Can you help????
I have a 16 month old daughter who stays with me at weekends who loves cats. ( yes im a s.a.s dad)
I started to leave food out in the garden to entice cats so she can stroke and pet them, as she loved nothing more.
This started about six months ago and now i am faced with upto ten cats in my garden at feeding time. As i look into the garden i can see six already waiting. Now i dont mind cats but do mind "The walk of death" to put the food out being bitten and sprayed.
My daughter has now moved onto dogs, or gogs as she calls them No longer paying any attention to the cats.
How do i get rid of them without breakin the law. ????????
If they're feral, shoot the little darlings.
If not, stop feeding them, buy a dog and frighten the little blighters away.
Finally, stop feeding them and scatter animal repellant around the garden.
Always remember though a wise man once said' never look a gift pussy in the mouth' or something like that anyway....
get a terrier......make sure the little girl strokes it before it gets covered in bits of cat though.... :shock:
i dont really want to get a dog, because she will be bored of that in a couple of weeks and dont know what to get after that to kill the dog.
to be rally annoying, we have some kittens that will be ready in 6 weeks ! that is if your daughter decideds to like them... ;) lol
Spray an aerosol too, they hate that!
Why not organise a munch for 'em then tip off all the local un-neutered Toms. That'd prove interesting if nothing else :shock: :shock:
Do I get me slap now? :rascal: :rascal:
Im trying to get rid of them, not giving them a good time. God, they would never go away.
I think you can buy these cat deterent ultrasonic noise maker things at places like Garden Centres and B&Q. They make a noise cats don't like, but we can't hear.
Just stop feeding them
They have got into a routine of coming to your house for food.....they will soon stop if food is not forthcoming
Might take a couple of weeks
in the meantime have a friend who has a dog come in and scent mark the garden
that should help to

All the approprtiate answers have been given already, but in short:
1 - Stop feeding them they will then go home!
2- Use a water gun.
3 - Find a friend with a dog and let it run round you garden and leave its smells over the place.
Simple really!
