I put down broken ceramic pieces, flat stones, broken bricks, pine cones, sea shells, clam shells... you get the idea.

This also slows evaporation.

River rocks. They come in different sizes, be sure to choose a size large enough that they won't be tempted to use as hockey pucks. Sold in bags at any hardware, nursery or home improvement center.

'Use scent to keep the cats away. Interplant in the garden. Cats dislike the smell of rue, lavender and pennyroyal, Coleus canina and lemon thyme — so plant a few of these throughout the garden space. As a bonus, interplanting will attract pollinators and can help to avoid pests too.'
