Given the weight of an entire moth, there must be a huge number of moths in this area that will not be attending any dances again. Also, considering what it cost to take the cat down to the vet for enlightenment, we are talking serious money to start a mothball collection. I will continue to rely on political pamphlets strewn about the section. It may be ugly, but as a method it not only repels cats and dogs, but insurance and real estate salesmen are conspicuously absent, also we haven't had any religious pedlars. |

| 716147 | 2008-11-02 09:27:00 | Hi How do you keep cats out of your garden? I have pondered with the very same question for years. Killing or harming the cats is not an option as I like cats and the worst offender is the one I own!! After years of experiments including mothballs here's the secret. Citrus. Cats hate it. Force your cat to smell a lemon and you will feel the daggers radiating from its eyes. Cut any citrus peels, (Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit etc) into small pieces and place over your garden. Simple. No harm to the environment, the cat, your wallet or self esteem. A further advantage is citrus peel will also drive away ants. They hate it too. It will take a few applications but the cat/s will soon learn. Out of fair play provide a little spot with soft soil for their business. Hope this helps. BURNZEE |

They just don't think of themselves as 'common'! Much the same as humans, I guess. from Wikipedia: Moggy or moggie (plural moggies) is a British affectionate term for a domestic cat, but is also used as alternative name for a mongrel or mixed-breed cat whose ancestry and pedigree are unknown or only partially known. Because of this mixed ancestry and free-breeding, a moggy can either be very healthy, or, if from an inbred feral colony, genetically unsound and sickly. However, as feral colonies are often left without any form of human intervention and veterinary attention, the sickly generally do not live past kittenhood, leaving the colony as a whole healthy. |

| 716152 | 2008-11-03 01:07:00 | I'm just trying out the citris tip from Burnzee. My house is pestered by the neighbour's cats (on 3 sides), and I'm sick of the dirty skankers taking a crap in my garden and their muddy paw prints over my car's windscreen. |
