Susco 5,527 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) Every morning I find under my carport, right in front of my entrance door, a small puddle. As I have a completely walled property, I suspect it's a cat that jumps over the wall, as on a few occasions I noticed a cat during the night. The small puddles only started maybe a week ago, and are always in the same location. You think this could be from a cat, and how to stop it?

Walls are over 2 meter high, so doubt it will be a dog. The puddle is also really small, so not sure if another animal like a Tokay would do this. The strange thing is that it's always in the same location right in front of the entrance door, while the carport has approx 35m² of tiled floor Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't measured them, but I estimate they are less than 10 cm by less than 5 cm. Only wonder why it is always in the same spot 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They are outside, since it is just a covered car port without any walls, the puddle is in front of the entrance door to the storage, and I'm allergic to cats Link to post Share on other sites

Jeffr2 8,220 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I've heard pepper works great. Perhaps this? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/2-60-smell-chase-cat-spray-repellent-100-i1718888275-s4898432201.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.27.33024c67bucayu&search=1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They can climb over walls and the gaps under the main gate. They not only pee but poo on my grasses. They come during the night when everyone is asleep and I have caught them by surprise but they can run very fast. If it is just one spot, it's easy to control, just pour vinegar on that spot. The stray cats pee and poo everywhere in my lawn. Sometimes, if I put my helmet out, they will also pee there. Edited December 2, 2020 by EricTh 2 Link to post Share on other sites
