How to prevent cats from shitting on my lawn?!?
(lemmy.world)
Neighborhood cats shit right in the middle of my lawn. It stinks and the robot lawn mover makes it even worse.
I do NOT like cats, and this is not helping.
What works to keep them from shitting on my lawn?
The votes have spoken. Some people are cat lovers; thanks for the great advice from the rest of you! I will not go out of my way to accommodate other people's pets that aren't welcome on my property. My first weapon of choice will be chili because it's simple and cheap. Other ideas have been noted.
Ignoring strays, you do realise there is no practical way for a cat owner to control where their cat takes a shit?
That is not negligence, it's nature.
You can't tell a dog where to shit, the difference being you'll pick it up where you can, and it probably can't climb fences.
There literally is. You can respect your neighbors by not letting your cat roam free, the same way I don't let my dog roam free. I really do not understand why people have trouble with this very simple concept.
Yeah...keep it inside and give it a box of whatever to shit in. This also isn't just about their shit but the utter disrespect for the animal to allow it to roam free, unsupervised and the disrespect to the other humans who are forced to live with the animal you chose to set free
