Get rid of the cats

[behere11]

How can I keep the cats from getting on my roof and "dirtying" up the back yard?

[drgnrdr]

I advocate keeping cats indoors for these reasons and more, maybe the ones who are letting their cats get on your roof and in your garden can give you a 100% guaranteed way, since they know their cats better than you or I, they should know what deters them.

You should receive lots of helpful advice soon, good luck.....

[drgnrdr]

Oh just in case they don't, they may not have advice because they don't know how to keep them inside, some think cats are wild creatures and need to roam outside to be happy.....

Oh... sorry... had to stop laughing before I could type again...anyway, see if you can open this pdf file, http://www.ddfl.org/behavior/roaming-cats.pdf if not check out http://www.ddfl.org/ and go to "pet behavior advice", and click on cats and it will show you "discouraging roaming cats" section with advice.

Bye....

Once I put a pesky cat in a basket and drove miles away to release it.

Rampart - that is absolutely horrible. Did it ever occur to you what hearbreak you were probably causing to some child or family to have lost their much loved pet?

[rampart]

I did get in plenty of trouble with mrs rampart. She takes your position and I was scolded.

I shant do it again. Sorry.

hook up a car battery to the roof, if it's a tin roof. or buy an air rifle. wendy s is not gonna like it but it is in fact perfectly legal to kill any cat...i dunno why, but it is. i don't like cats much haha

[andy hughes]

Just place mothballs, one every eighteen inches or so, round the edge of your roof - that will keep the cats off.

wen the bloody hell had killing cats been legal? don't know wat screwed up country u live in...cuz here u'll go to jail or get a realy huge figne 4 animal cruelty!

but actually everytime i hear about some1 being crule to a cat or killing one i have such a erge to go out and kill and seriously harm as many dogs a can get! my mums dog allready cowers from everytime i go near him muhaha

[mastadon]

it is perfectly legal to kill a cat, as long as you do it humanely, ie with the first punch....it's only undue suffering thats classed as cruelty. cats aren't as important as dogs, and surely you're just as screwed up as me if you wanna hurt dogs just cause some people hurt cats....we don't live in a cartoon

I saw this answer on T.V a few weeks ago. They hate the smell of orange peel so you need to sprinkle it around regularly.
