Recommendations to keep cats from using shop as litter box.

Greetings BTKS,

Here’s what I’d do if it were me…I’d grab it, tie a rope around it’s neck, put a brick on the other end,

and throw it across a telephone line….. That’s what I’d do….I hate cats with a passion…...You do what you

want to, but until you get rid of the sucker, you’ll never get rid of it….....But there’s poison, or a .22 cal.

They won’t stick around to long if there is a dog around.

Hell Rick…what if a cat thought it would be fun to do the same to you..

spray them with a water/ammonia solution each time you see them in the shop. Pretty soon they will figure out that they don’t like it there.

Alternatively, think TASER

My shop is 1/3 of my basement. When I am using it and making sawdust, I keep the door closed. But when I am not using it I like to leave the door open to help keep it from getting musty. To keep the cats out, I slide a piece of 3’x4’ plywood in front of the door. My cats are older and don’t bother jumping over it. If they were younger I might make it 4×4. I’ve slipped up and forgotten to slide it closed a couple of times and one of them usually manages to piss in a pile of shavings. ... it reminds me to be consistent.

Hey Abbott, He asked for an opinion, and I gave it to him….Don’t worry, I have been shot..more than once.

And I’m still here, dude…........

Remington makes a nice 12 gauge…...
Seriously, local pet store should have a product to spray around so they will stay out of your shop.

Hey Rick…I let my cat read the forums now and then and she noticed your post…

She said “This one’s for rick”. Honestly I can’t tell if she was winking at you or not when I snapped the photo ~shrug~

Cats greatly dislike marigolds.
But somehow that doesn’t seem feasible. Hehe
Also there is a spray that you can get at Petco
that deters them.
You could spray around the entrances to your shop.

I’ve used moth balls to keep them out of the garden. Throw down moth balls around the perimeter of the shop that should deter them from coming around the building. It also helps to cut down mosquitoes.

Okay, Abbott, I’ve had it with you posting these dirty pictures all over the site! :-)

Maybe cleaning up the sawdust might help? I should talk, I haven’t seen my feet in weeks!
