Ways to stop cat having a dump in the garden?

Claymores

There is a cat, or cats which seem to be taking a dump in my mum's garden more than once a day. It's beginning to become a real PITA.

Any suggestions of things that actually work?

The usual suggestions that have been tried and failed:
The smelly stuff you buy in B&Q
Orange Peel
Water bottles filled with water (the reflection thing)
Bits of goosberry bush cut up and placed around garden (it's thorny)

Mum works during the day and i'm not bloody sitting guard with a supersoaker whilst on holiday

Anybody have a solution?

Cheers,
Rob.

If you live near a zoo ask them for some lion droppings. Great for your garden and no cat will come near!

The garden now belongs to the cat, and you are trespassing on it's land.

Buy a dog, give it asian bird flu and teach it cadence clutching, it never fails.

Orange peel, they don't like the smell

I've heard about this. Apparently it's the smell or something makes them keep away as they think the gardens been claimed by another cat.

Personally, I think that the cat goes into your garden, sees this whacking great lion dump on the lawn, thinks 'My God, what the FK did THAT?!' and legs it!

Live about 70 miles from nearest zoo, and my dads neighbour tried it, it was also a failure

Incorrigable - tried the orange peel thing, didn't seem to work at all, how many oranges are we talking about here - does the garden have to be covered?

The only option left seem to be to train up some rats, then get them to ride badgers and teach them to hunt cats

My mother is muttering things like this, the whole point of me asking is to stop us having cat stew at the weekend, she really is about to lose it with the bloody feline er.

Or see if they can stretch to a whole lion.

Should suffice for also repelling burglars, Jehovah's Witnesses and, perhaps more importantly, political canvasers....

One think we've done is to get thorns and lay them in the area's that the cat sh*ts on!

Done. They must be wearing little booties or something because they don't give a fook!

borrow someone's cat for a few weeks, preferably a large one.

or a dog.

[Lois]

Bigger thorns!

If you have time sit there with a water gun. Do it for long enough and they "should" learn.

With me at uni mum's the only person in the house and she works full time, so alas it's not an option, same as getting a pet.

Guaranteed to work, cooke chicken leg with chopped chillies and paprica, allow to cool and leave in the garden for the cat. It will never return to your garden.

no animals were killed or mamed in researching this remedy.
