Hi Maggie,

I had sort of a similar problem with my two silly dogs. They kept eating all
my herbs all of the time. I figured that it must be good for them, so I
planted them their own, easier-to-reach-for-dogs herb garden. Now they just
eat theirs. Maybe you could try setting up an attractive box with catnip
planted in it. Or you could plant catnip further away near some bushes or
something.

Good luck getting the cats to begone!

Jean

New neighborhood, new raised beds, and new outdoor
cats that think the beds are litter boxes!!!!!!

Any suggestions, short of enclosing each entire box
with chicken wire, on how to keep cats from digging in
my garden.  
*We have a dog but he loves cats!  And these
neighborhood cats seem fine with him too, so I can't
use his hair to deter them.  
*Should I try the "Cat-b-gone" sprays from the pet
store?  Has anyone had success with any brand?

So far they've only dug in between the plants and
haven't damaged anything.  Though there is some sage
and lemon thyme that was chomped on, would birds do
this or can I blame the cats for that too?

Thanks,     Maggie Raptis    (Zone 6)
