Humble Pie

So guess who was back at my doorstep tonight.... obviously got wind that I'm not happy with him!

Blimey, he's so persistant, trying to sit on my lap, and get in my house.... but I was strong! He didn't get further than the patio, or my knee!

That'll learn him!

You are still talking about stalker cat, aren't you...

We had a similar problem with the cat next door, it kept pooing on the shingle in our garden and trying to come into the house through the patio doors. Someone gave me a tip on how to stop it. I was a little skeptical, but thought I'd give it a try and it worked! What you do is, get one of those little water sprayer things with the green nozzle that you use for watering house plants and stuff. Fill it with water mixed with a little bit of cayenne pepper, then spray a line that you don't want the cat to go past. The cat still comes in the garden which is fine, but now it won't anywhere near the shingle or the patio doors. I'm told its because there's some chemical in the pepper that's the same as the one in the scent cats put on stuff when they rub up against it, so they think it's another cat's territory. Dunno if that's true or not, but it seems to work.

Blimey Wayne, you're definitely an ideas man! ;o)

I did try cayenne pepper once before - but didn't have much luck... I've heard the only way to get rid of a cat, is to get a cat. And up until the weekend, Stalker Cat did seem to stop other cats pooing and coming into my garden. However, Stalker Cat decided to poo on my patio - which didn't go down well with me! And certainly didn't go down well with him, as he found himself being lifted up mid-strain, and placed onto his own garden! Hasn't happened again yet!
