Keeping critters away

Wild cats?

We moved into a gated community in March. This last Sunday around 2 a.m. I had to literally chase two fighting cats out of our backyard and even had to go to front yard and chase them off. The cats were not scared off easy. Kinda concerns me if they are wild or not? — Cindy Welch

Spray can

I saw a spray last night you can try that is supposed to keep cats and dogs away. I don’t know what it is called though. — Cindy Lambert

Particles

I sprinkle granules around my yard. It’s called “Repels-All.” It repels skunks, cats, dogs, deer, etc. I think it also comes in a spray/liquid. — Matt Hahn

Man's best friend

Get a dog. — LarryHouser

Catch/Release

They are feral cats. Arizona has a trap and release program to try and cut down on the overpopulation, but once they are spayed and neutered they are returned back to the “wild” (i.e., your neighborhood). — Stacy Chipman

Cat plans

Mothballs are also supposed to repel cats. Vinegar usually mutes the smell of spray. Sorry this is a drag. When we had a cat, neighborhood cats would sit on our roof with him, making cat plans. They tore a hole in the screen and started coming into my son’s room when he was gone. — Lorna Elaine
