What to Do If Your Cat is Digging Up the Yard

Does your cat like to dig up your yard? Is she especially zoning in on your garden? Cats often like to digas a way to play, release energy, and relieve boredom. Cats also dig to go to the bathroom and then cover the area with dirt. If your cat is choosing your garden or somewhere in the middle of the yard to dig for fun or for the bathroom then you may need to talk to your vet about ways to stop this. You’ll want to make your yard as unappealing as possible for your cat. For instance, try adding motion detector sprinkles that will go off when your cat comes around. Try using a cat repellent spray to discourage her digging. Some owners have sprayed the yard with a citrus scent or even spread orange and lemon peels around to discourage their cat from digging.
