If you own a curious cat like the Japanese Bobtail then you may have noticed your cat’s love for prowling in your yard and garden looking for mice and digging up whatever she can find. Cats enjoy a good hunt, but there hunting grounds aren’t always the best. If you’re having trouble keeping your cat or even the neighbor’s cat out of your garden, talk to your vet for tips and suggestions. Some cats like the bobtail will use the garden as an outside litter box. Try setting up a litter box for your cat outside. This may keep him out of the garden. Other ways to deter the cat include taking orange or lemon peels and scattering them in your garden above or under the soil. The scent has been known to keep cats away. You can always cover the soil with rocks or mulch as well. Learn more from your pet clinic Webster NY.
