How can I keep feral or neighbors' cats away from my bird feeders?

by Fran

Answered

These cats poop all around the ground below the feeders and have killed at least one of our blue jays. Is there something I can use that is non-toxic to birds but will deter the cats? I don't want to scatter citrus peels because they might attract something else. Thanks!
