"Cats always know whether people like or dislike them. They do not always care enough to do anything about it.” ~Winifred Carriere
We've got a cat problem. Well, a cat poop problem to be exact. Turns out that a cat has found our front yard to be his favorite place to do the do. And it's always in the freshly-planted jasmine. And of course the dirt has to be kicked up afterward. I am NOT a cat fan at all. And definitely not a fan of one who thinks he can do whatever he wants to do in our yard.
So I'm on a mission to rid our yard of that cat. My mom suggested a garden stake of a cat. It worked for her. So I bought a Halloween cat from Mi*chaels--the closest thing I could find. The neighbors are probably wondering why the cat is even there since there is nothing else even remotely Halloween-related in our front yard. I was convinced this would work. Imagine my surprise, and disgust, when yet again, the cat had made a visit this week--less than six feet from the newly-purchased cat. ARRRGHHH!
And if that's not enough, Rhyan has taken a liking to the fake cat. He is constantly petting it, picking it up and moving it, trying to bring it in the house, asking why it keeps pooping in our yard, and wondering why he's fake. He's even named the "pet" cat Spongebob! *Sigh*
So my mother has suggested bleach in small saucers to deter the cat and some "Cat Be Gone" concotion that can be bought at Home Depot. Any other suggestions out there?
