One of the neighbor's cat, prefers a certain area in my backyard to do its dirty business. Anyway, I'de like a pet detecting device that will spray the cat with mace spray, hopefully something unharmful yet effective for it to run away. At first I was thinking of a giant mousetrap for cats, but that means you have to clean up a dead cat, plus I like cats they are nice quiet pets as long as they are in my neighbors area.

Hey [tabs], that link also outlines one of the "advantages" of drinking water!!!

Replace mace with small flamethrower. Kitty learns once, kitty learns good.

How about a pop-up sprinkler head attached to a motion sensor? Kitty comes in, kitty gets sprayed, kitty goes away.

I vote for [Freefall]'s idea.....non-lethal cat deterrent technology is fun stuff.....In warm weather I'll throw water on the occasional agressor.

Remember the laser kitty toy? Have a laser pointer, make it really strong and visible during the day, and drive the cat crazy.

But you can get cat repellant stuff that you put down on your lawn or one of the linked electronical devices. This idea is redundant - widely known to exist.

Being a vet's assistant, this title scared me. Thanks for not giving the mace to the cats.
