    Hi Mary,


    If the cats have owners, please contact them and explain your dilemma and ask them to take care of their cats.

    If feral, then attach a motion activated sensor to a hose/spigot. Cats do not like to be wet, plus this is good for your garden. You can get this set up at a diy store.

    You can use pecan shell mulch. The edges are sharp and cats don't like to walk or dig in them. Smells like peppers, moth balls, run them out.
