If the cat already has a collar, get your neighbour to fix a bell to it. Problem solved !
I had this problem when I kept the Jowett under the car port. I was on the verge of making a water jet with a 12v pump, through a transformer and a PIR but ended up putting the car in the garage and taking down the car port......not because of the cats. Animal repeller 5 ft away didn't bother them.
And the bell idea ?............one weighing about 10kg should do the trick !!

Our cat usually gets the message about where it should not be with one of those spray bottle things for keeping house plants moist. It's so well trained now that we only have to produce the bottle and not actually use it.
|
This is a hard cat though - cock of the street so it'll laugh in the face of a spray. The Karcher might do it though. In fact that'll propel it back onto the neighbour's drive!!!!!
Seriously, though, it does need sorting as he could quite easily put some holes in the roof.

Once upon a time long ago we had a Cat Shat between the bonnet and the windscreen of a Ford Orion. I apologise for the Ford Orion and ONLY for the shat if I have erred again. (Sorry PU for the other evening, should have known better, but I was, as someone else pointed out, quite irate), however 'it' had not become apparent until moving off and turning on the heater!!! I will leave you all to your own imaginations. Getting rid was another matter. I cannot abide animal cruelty, but neither can I abide Catshat.
Don't mention strimmer.

Used to have a pump action clear plastic machine gun that fired ping-pong ball sized spheres of expanded polystyrene. Harmless of course, but the cat got very good at using all the cover in the sitting room when it saw the thing in my hands. Mostly got fired at the TV when the Prime Minister (Lord Home or 'Baillie Vass' as Private Eye called him for some reason) was on.
I haven't seen one for ages, but if you can get one of those you may be able to deter the mog, however hard it may think it is. Cats have a strong sense of dignity.

There used to be some green pellets on a bit of wire, designed for house vent bricks.
A colleague had a problem with a cat 'marking' his car at the bottom of the windscreen where the heater air inlet is. The pellets did the trick, but were apparently only a slighter better odour.
