Posted this on Elizas site earlier, but now there is a new cat topic here, this is a short bit of video, it shows Shadow cleaning one of the new kittens, Raven, the video might appear darker when viewed on older computers:

Shadow is getting really attached to both kittens now, they wont leave him alone either, except he gets a bit too attached, he's been trying to get in on with them both Shocked

, which means having to keep a close eye on them, so tomorrow, he is booked in at 8:30am to go to the vets, to have his nuts taken away Crying or Very sad

, that should hopefully calm him down a bit, and stop any chance of a house full of cats in about 6 months time Very Happy

My neighbours' cats are having a little sh**ting war in my backyard. Well this IS the cat thread isn't it?

Does anybody know how (other than a rottweiler, a 12-gauge or a few bear-traps) to keep cats away from somewhere? I don't hate cats (much), but it sure would be nice to mow the lawn without flinging cat-poop all over the place.

This is how I have felt all evening:

moth balls in the yard (around the fence area) will keep the cats and other animals out!

^^^ Thanks Eliza. I just might do that. Moth balls... not as effective as firearms, but maybe a little more "socially acceptable" these days. I like it!

now the problem is getting their legs apart...(sorry - couldn't resist)

Seriously - my mom used to put these in our garden - protected the crop.

So see - being from the back woods can be beneficial sometimes. LOL

Valerian drops.....just put some of it into your garden......

that will keep the cats away from somewhere, as they are all in your garden then

If I had a cat, this is what it would look like!

The black one recently passed. Sad

But he had a long happy life.
