Might be considered too drastic to kill it, but a trip to the moors is not beyond the realms of possibility!

Re: Bloody cats
 

Try large plastic bottles filled with water - the cat sees an enlarged image of itself and is frightened away :)
I've never tried it, but I've seen it used a lot in Spain.

Re: Bloody cats
 

I have had some of these pellets delivered today - from ebay and named 'Silent roar'.

My son sprinkled half the pack on the grass outside my ground floor balcony. I have been bothered by three cats sneaking and wandering right through the flat to the bedroom at the back.
A few minutes ago one of them has just ignored them and had to be shooed of the balcony.

Does it need a light shower to release the lion smell which is supposed to deter them?

Max'll sort your cats out

Re: Bloody cats
 

I like cats - had two in the past - just wont tolerate visiting strangers who might well bring in fleas :eek:

Re: Bloody cats
 

I have heard that putting plastic snakes in you garden will keep cats away

Re: Bloody cats
 

Maybe they lived there previously.

Re: Bloody cats
 

A 10mm ball bearing and a good shot will - promise;)

Re: Bloody cats
 

Later last night, another one of the three was heading in my direction then made a hasty diversion when within 3 feet of the pellets.

Maybe the cat that didn't has a bad cold ;)

Re: Bloody cats
 

Oh dear, another one with a bad cold, or not afraid of lions.
I can see I will have to buy a water pistol.

I have found a hosepipe works quite well

Re: Bloody cats
 

Please stop it I have tears rolling down my face. You have only been in your perfect flat 5 minutes and have found something to complain about already

Re: Bloody cats
 

Not complaining - living here is delightful.
Just solving a very minor problem:p

Re: Bloody cats
 

Not only that but her neighbours, oh, dear can you imagine their conversations?
That new tenant a little bit strange I think, she must have retired from the circus because, when I walked past her balcony I got the distinct aroma of lion crap, think she must spread it around to remind her of when she worked in the big top!
:D

Re: Bloody cats
 

I thought that was par for the course, little old ladies home alone except for a house full of cats? As to strangers bringing in fleas, I thought you said it was a decent area? The neighbours aren't that bad are they? :D
