Stinking rotten cats!



The cats keep digging up my Marigolds and Baby's Breath. Just digging. Who knew cats like to dig? We aren't talking potty here, just digging like a dog. They've killed about a hundred little plants. I've resorted to old bird cages and mouse traps along with hot pepper. I heard one yowl last night and the trap had sprung on it's furry ass and scared it. LMAO! That's a roll of it's fur caught in the bottom there. You think I'm mean? Too bad. I dug them a play space in the back of mom's yard. I even planted catnip and added compost, since they like the smell of compost. But, nooooooooo. Now it's war. I really hate most of them. They are very deliberate in their annoying behavior. Cats are not dumb, they know I don't want them here. They know where their part of the property is. It's a dangerous game they're playing. I may not win, but, neither will they. I'm glad I have replacement beds for transplanting...or I'd be burying grenades.

I wish people would stop thinking cats don't bother anyone. They're an awful bother.

I do not hate animals but I hate the way people let their cats out to roam free and use your garden as their personal toilets. If I could collect all the crap from cats and deposit it back in their owner's yards I would. I have done that when I saw the cat who did it.

I clipped rose branches and put those thorny hurdles on the pathways where the cats walk through my garden. That was effective. FYI moth balls don't work although that was also a suggestion. I ran a daycare from my home for eight years and I constantly had to comb the yard to make sure the kids weren't going to get into cat crap.

I used to love cats and I've had several over the years but thanks to cat owners who could care less what their pets do to other people's yards, I don't anymore. At least there are laws about dogs having to stay on leashes. We need one for cats.
