I know it's strange, but if anyone could confirm whether it sounds like a cat I would be grateful.
Fox droppings are firm and dry, slender, and generally pointed at both ends. You can often see evidence of hair or fur, sometimes seeds, and usually it is earth coloured, as if the fox has eaten soil. Often left on raised areas such as tree stumps or rocks as a territory marker.
(Hope that's not too much information!)If I'm over the hill, where was the top?0 -
I LOVE cats, but the ones that belong to the neighbour of the lady who's garden I look after (if that makes sense!) are complete !!!!!! bags!! One of them leaves big logs, the other leaves half formed, sandy coloured splats that go EVERYWHERE if you accidentally stand on it!! I dunno what that cat eats, but it can't be in top health. Never seen anything like it!
Going to go down the human urine, straws and plastic cutlery routes soon - and mothballs too now!!0 -

I had a cat that used to come through out catflap and steal our cats food. I fixed the problem by locking the catflap so that it only allowed access in then i went to work. When i returned I peeked into the utility room and saw the culprit cat trying to get out when it saw me. I then got a huge pan and large spoon and banged and made such a racked whilst chasing it around the utility room. Once i opened the cat flap the cat shot out terriffied and has never been back
It avoids the garden and house now :rotfl:0 -

great, thanks! My sonic cat repeller arrived today, but I'm a belt and braces type so I shall get mothballs too.
If you could let us know if this works I would be grateful (along with the make & model).

So far, so good! It does say in the instructions that it can take up to 3 weeks before the cats give up completely though. I got Defenders Mega-sonic Cat Repeller from Amazon - £15.18, which seemed a good price.
