Cat pooping in the gravel garden!

hello!

I read through another thread on here but it didn't really answer what I am looking for. My cat is pooing in my gravel garden. I don't want to deter him from going in my garden, I just want him to stop pooing in it! Any suggestions that will stop him but not stop him hanging out in the garden?

    So where do you want him to poo then. In your neighbours garden?

    Well they have some very large dogs so he would have to be a very brave kitty! I would like him to poo in his litter tray. Sadly, the back garden resembles a huuuuge litter tray so I see his logic!

    Thanks for the help though.

    Sorry - kneejerk reaction as I had to clear up the usual cat poo from my garden this morning!

    Get the organic cat deterrent powder (I think from B&Q / Big Tesco) - it's about £4 for a big plastic carton of it. It absolutely stinks!!! Sprinkle this over your gravel ... it'll deter anyone or anything from going on it!!! (And is harmless to pets)

    I forgive you! Although I do wish sometimes that I could train him to poo on the other side but only when they have a house party on a Tuesday night until 4am!?!?

    Put earth in his litter tray? (soil, not fuller's)

    The only way to deter him is much larger gravel stones, that he can't move with his paws.
