I know cats are agile, buti have trouble believing that a cat can climb over a four foot high chain link fence. Does anyone know if that is possible and if it is, what can we do to stop the cat from doing its thing in the flower beds? Remember that cats, animals and other intruders have more rights than the homeowner does, so keep it legal if you have a suggestion!!

I would like to hear how others solved the problem.

Thanks,

ps: The subject should have been stray cats (not cast),.

glueboard type mouse trap. Lay several around the flowerbed. The cats will eventually get stuck. It is funny watching those cats walk around with a large piece of cardboard stuck to their backside. You will see the cats later w/ a few bald spots. It is typically the owner that will make the decision to keep the cats from roaming after they have to tangle w/the cat on the glueboard.

It worked for me
