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

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".

Me neither Steve...just anger rearing it's ugly head ,but I have tried multiple things and just came home and more cat sht in the same area where I placed cat repellent....several times...so the usual things simply don't work . The dog idea or the other  remark of moving is well simply stupid...but then anymore I expect that from most people.

I can definitely understand your frustration Doc as it must feel like some kind of home invasion by a group of pack animals. I'm sure that you can fix this problem without taking drastic measures but it will probably be a full time job and who has time for that?

Squirrels and birds are invading your property. Shoot 'em all up!!!

"Never intended to take any 'drastic measures'....but apparently some who have their heads up their asses are overly sensitive."

Ohhh yes he did. Have a look at page 1 of the thread. 

Overly sensitive MY ass, actually. 

Anyone tries to poison or shoot my cats, I contact the Humane Society, the local police and get them prosecuted and fined to the full extent of the law. They get the full vet bill as well. And probably a spot in the local paper. 

I convinced a friend of mine not to shoot a drone which was hovering above his garden as it classes as "criminal damage" and an actual firearms offence here in the UK. That's just someone elses' property and not a living being which belongs to someone else. 

Coming on a public forum and mentioning that you are (see page 1) considering poisoning or shooting cats invites you to rightful criticism from any right thinking and decent person. 

So have some. 

Then attacking anyone who gives you that criticism is just digging the hole a bit deeper. 

Then denying you ever intended to take drastic action.......... ha, there's MY ass again. 

If I were you, and thank God I'm not, I'd buy a water pistol and delete this thread. Not necessarily in that order. 

^^^Doesn't really matter if it's a garden or a frontyard, or if the signs say that dogs should be on their leashes, they should normally be allowed to walk in other people's gardens. It's a whole nother story if they're sh*tting there of course like I already said, that's the responsibility of the owner to prevent, if he doesn't have an owner you should take him to a shelter (even if they'll have him euthanized there, in which case it's undeniable anyways that there's too many cats and drastic measures might be necessary...).
