Repel Feral Cats from Garden
- ERECT A PHYSICAL BARRIER AROUND YOUR GARDEN
Barricading your garden makes it less attractive to feral cats. Be it a fence (of tree pruning or wire mesh), or a gate, any kind of physical barrier reduces the likelihood of cats infesting your garden. If erecting a fence would not be cost effective, planting prickly bushes around your garden is also an ideal way of keeping them away from your garden and garden beds. These plants include Bramble Blackberry, Pyracantha, and Berberis.
- SMELL THEM AWAY
Certain plants give off scents that are rather repulsive to cats. These plants are Lemon balm, Coleus canina (Scardy cat plant), rosemary, rue, lavender and pennyroyal. The effectiveness of their scents can be increased by interplanting these shrubs with your garden plants so that their scents can be stronger. Peels of citrus fruits also repel those furry balls a great deal, so throwing some fresh peels around your garden frequently helps in keeping cats away.

- USE CAT-AWAY SPRAY
A combo of strong scents is really repulsive to cats and would therefore go a long way in keeping feral cats away from your garden.
Combining a teaspoon of black pepper, a clove of ground garlic, dry mustard, few drops of an essential oil of citrus and cinnamon in a spray bottle filled with water and applied to the garden beds helps to keep feral cats far from your garden.
Since water and wet areas repel cats, feral cats can be repelled from the garden by ensuring the floor and beds of the garden are continually wet.
