Cat in the garden ?

A cat has started coming in to the garden and if its not careful one of the dogs are going to have it ...
Now Oz is ok with passive cats and can sit next to my mums cat with no incidents ,but with a running cat in HIS garden i really dont know what he will do ...

The last thing i want it the cat hurt but in this weather the back door is never shut ...

What to do what to do

Oh how I sympathise. I have discovered that absolutely nothing deters a determined cat from nightly visits to our garden........not six foot walls nor cat-hating JRT.

We too have the door open all day and evening, and I have become almost used to the nightly ritual of rushing outside when I hear Jimmi doing his cat scream, not that there is much that I can do because the chase is over and done with by the time that I get out there.

He did catch a cat a while ago, and both he and cat were injured. It is an absolute pain in the bum.

I am afraid a cat would have to take its chances in my garden.

None actually come in ................

(Quelle Surprise)!

The best way to keep cats out of your garden is to get a cat of your own.

*runs away and hides*

Can't agree more. Or in my case, two Cats tend to have their own territory, so you really need to get a cute ickle kitten...

Yes why not Murf, buy the dogs a nice little fluff ball of their very own to chase round the garden
