shes 15 now, so theres not a chance in hell of me training her not to, i was just wondering if theres anything i could spray on ?

 

cheers everyone

i had 15 "plants" once, not the average houseplant if u know wot i mean, came home to find my cat with a big on his face and all the leaves eaten

orange peel around the base of the plants

good idea, anything citrus based as cats hate citrus. thats the basis of these anti chew sprays etc

iirc you used to get a pepper dust that you could sprinkle around areas that you didn't want your cat going. Although, citrus peel would also work.

Cheers guys :-) ill have to have a go, see what works lol

Yeah big problem for us finding dead mice all over the house. We lock the flap up after about 10pm. Its mainly at night the mice come out.

cats hate the smell of onion . stick a bit by your plants and they,ll stay away .

A small bit of metal just behind the ear will solve all the problems!!!!

Yep, onion, or any acidic fruits lemon lime orange etc should do the trick.:clap:

Thats a good one, I used lemon juice diluted with water in a sprayer.It evaporates off the leaves and isnt hugely sticky, it did put our cat off this stupid trick, but does have to be re-done every few weeks.

Give her a little patch of cat nip. She`ll be too stoned to care about the rest.

Found this for people having trouble with their cats bringing in local livestock...

 

 

 

 

Don't think it'll catch on :whistling:

Classic! that would last less than a minute on my cat lol!! thats if you could manage to attatch it in the first place :lol:
