any ideas? I have them wrapped in paper cones now, I wnet ot petco and their deterrants say Caution: toxic to humans and dometstic animals. Like I really want to use that.
So I am looking for some natural ideas. I tried cloves yesterday, I put some in cheescloth and tied it to the plant, he walked up and smelled it, like he liked it
he doesnt acutally get in planter subt stands on the edge so rocks and things like that wont work

Hi Honeybears. We use rocks in our plants. Too bad you can't use them too. Have you tried orange peels? The only problem with this, is you have to change them out every few days. Or just look for nature products that have a citrus smell. None of my cats have ever liked any citrus smells. |

Hello I went to a thrift store and bought a bunch of forks and put them in the dirt and my cat stopped using it. I guess a poke in the butt is all he needed.
Good luch
