There can be nothing more soul destroying, than scooping up a full bin liner of cat muck, preparing your garden for new plants, digging out all the weeds, etc, only to wake up next morning to find your plants/seeds have been dug up, covered in cat wee then dumped on!

I am literally at the end of my tether with the cats on our street.

I have two house cats, who have trays and only come out in the summer months. The neighbourhood cats are destroying my hard work every time I try to plant anything nice or put veg in.
So far I have tried the following;

• Bottles of water, half filled so the movement scares the cats away
• Old CDs tied to string
• Netting and/or mesh over the whole of the soil area
• Catnip plants
• Weed matting over the whole plot
• Pepper and garlic
• Orange peel
• Garden lights

If anyone can suggest ANYTHING, I'll be willing to try it.... I love animals, but the neighbourhood cats are doing my head in!
