Indoor cats are not necessarily miserable. Cats trade territory for security. Ours won't go out as they are timid rescue cats, we have a field full of badgers and foxes behind us and the neighbourhood is simply crawling with cats. 

Perhaps Dr Wu should avail himself of a water pistol. Cats hate being wet, one or two squirts, that'll dissuade his garden visitors. I'm still astonished that someone could come on a public forum *and ask for advice about animal cruelty* having failed to google "cat repellent".

Yeah, I thought it might be cultural differences but cats that roam in your neighborhood are not stray cats and won't become stray cats unless they're already mentally ill or abused. Having had two cats that walk around freely in different neighborhoods for about 10 years each tells me that they don't get diseases from just being outside, at its worst they can get a tick. And they definitely don't like being locked inside, not even the neutered ones.

Indoor cats are miserable. Keeping them inside is like locking them behind bars.

Actually, no, that is a terrible idea. Domesticated cats should not be let out. Sorry, you aren't supposed to let dogs roam free in your neighborhood, and neither should cats. They spread disease, and worse there is already a tremendous glut of unwanted litters of kittens filling animal shelters. Millions of them -- 3.4 million enter shelters in the U.S. every year -- and there is just not enough homes for them all.

Spay or neuter your cat and keep them inside.

I'm not into shooting cats but there should be something that acts as a cat repellent besides a dog.

I'm a bit surprised by the behaviour of these cats: do they also pollute the other gardens around the block?

I can't really give you advice: in my family, we always had cats and/or dogs preventing other pets from invading our gardens.
It sounds a bit stupid, but, well, sometimes the best repellent against cats or dogs is... having cats or dogs.

Anyway, from what I read on websites, you could try:
- spreading some mustard diluted in water all over the garden
- spraying powdered pepper
- rubbing garlic or onions on flowerpots
- planting some flowers like lavender or tyme
- vinegar could work too.

Some of the things one reads on this forum are just incredible. Reminds me why I usually stick to just looking at the music boards.

Citrus cat repellant. 

By the way. Illegal to shoot cats in the States, try this for size.
