Want to get rid of the cats.

Featured Replies

I have the only house, in my soi, that hasn’t got dogs.

So all the cats treat my garden as a safe haven.

I don’t mind, got used already to their screaming’s and the dogs barking and howling.

Anyway, they run away when they see me.

MIL, is only complaining  that they litter her plants, but I get the satisfaction, to answer her back the Thai way…….Mai Ben Rai.

Now the problem started about 3 weeks ago.

I noticed, before that one of the cats was pregnant, even know the husband.

That cat gave birth to 5 cute kittens in my garden.

Never was able to approach them, BUT, they found that they can climb up from underneath the car and hide in the engine.

For 3 weeks now, before start the car, have to open the bonnet and with the broom try to make them come out.

Then start the car for a second or2, just to make any remaining kittens get out.

Yesterday, I followed the same procedure, but when I started the ignition, a kitten flew up the air, and fall dead, back in the engine.

I was devastated and I don’t want any more cats in my garden.

Another one will be pregnant soon and the story will go on and on.

Is there any way I can stop the cats coming in my garden?

Poison or shooting is not an option, and the answer, get a dog, will not be welcome.

Dogs are not only for Christmas, but for life.

I grew up and had dogs all my life, but somebody else was taking care of them always.

Any suggestions will be more than welcome.

    You want to get rid of them from your garden?   Easy. Plant lots of Nepeta Cataria (latin name). They hate the stuff and will run a mile.

Build a cat stable, get the females pregnant, milk'em, repeat.
The males: Behead them, skin them, cut off the tail, sell'em to the unwary as rabbit...

We (well my grandparent) ate them after the second worldwar because lack of other food....supposed to be like rabbit. But rabbit isn't easy to sell in Thailand.

Do what all my neighbors do and never shut down your motor. 

 

Especially if it is diesel and parked outside my window.

Lots of foul fumes from tailpipes in Rhek Thum!

I started a similar thread some year ago.. The best advice was to put orange peels in every corner of the garden, as there was stench of cat piss.

It worked, even if i was on a orange diet for a few weeks, and those oranges, frankly, are nothing special.

At the moment there are not many cats in the neighbourhood, but in the case, i will start the orange diet again.

We had gypsies prowl around begging for a "Kitten in the cabbage" till the late 80's...

 Are you allowed to remove the cat from the car here ?

Thank you, sounds good.

If it worked for you, should work for me also.

The problem is, am already sick of the idea of how many oranges I have to peel and eat.

I will start putting them around the car.

Get a low powered BB gun. Shoot them in the date hole, they'll soon get the idea.

Oh no, trouble is here.

 

Hope the other one is still asleep, after his jet lag.

Thank you Mr Roland, but I asked how to get rid of the cats, not how to make myself bankrupt.

I need tons of white pepper, and it's not cheap.

 

But for your sake, if you want to visit me I will keep the cats away, being a rodent many nasty things can happen.

Spoke too soon.......

Are you feeling better now MrToad?

Always a pleasure to hear from you.

Lucky it wasnt a cat ostrophe ! whistling.gif

 

If you have to use bold letters to explain your joke, best not to tell it in the first place.

 

(not even very original............or, funny).

U sound like a real fun person there KB.

Sounds like you have allready discovered how to get rid of the cats.
"Keep useing the car" Mi Ow...

get some old hose pipe, coil it up like a snake and put them around  your garden/drive, cats don't like snakes.

Well Costas looks like my suggestion may have got lost. Look for a Burmese Reticulated Badger, might be the answer for you.
A few posts have been removed, Please do not post methods of killing cats.

 

I have an old soi dog, she is 15 now and is definitely an in house dog. Next door there are twenty cats and they keep my dog healthy as she always chases them. Cats are really smart and I have a high pressure water hose sitting idle at all times and whenever I see a feline in my garden, I let em have it. Water they do not like! I think the tiger piss is a good idea, even though obtaining it might not be easy! A slingshot also works as they learn real fast, coupled with pepper and oranges, I reckon it'll be enough to deter them.

 

Good luck anyway.
