Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Hi Carol: One of the best way of keeping cats out of plants & planters is to line the top of the dirt with pebbles, stones, even sea shells will do the trick. Their claws don't care much for heavy things on top of the soil. :0) Tried and true with my previous house kittys. Now we just outside wild ones. Anyone have a way to tame wild kittens? <groan> A most fragrant evening to ya, deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 It is my experience that the only way to tame wild kittens is patience and a true love of the species.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Hi Stan - You are a lucky dude, since your cats left your plants alone after putting stones on the top of the soil. We have a fountain in our screened in porch that is essentially a pile of stones with a motor and tube coming through the middle where the water comes out. Our cats, Bebe and Lil, like to attempt to drink from the fountain. And, they like to steal a stone from the fountain and then bat it around the floor for a while. Now we have stones all over the porch. LOL. Good luck, MaryEllen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad girl, Miz Odessa the Transgressa, won’t drink from anything but a fountain. And she won’t use a cat box. She goes in the bathroom sink. Yeah I know – eeewwwwww! But it’s easy to clean, and there’s no use trying to change her.
