It's weird though, isn't it?
If a neighbour's dog craps in your garden you can go to the police, and they will tell the neighbour to control the dog. If the neighbour's cat craps in your garden you're supposed to put up with it because 'that's what cats do'. At the end of the day, they're both pets, and I don't see why the owner's responsibility for the nuisance their pets cause should be different for cats and dogs. The argument that it's a 'wild' animal just doesn't wash. It's your pet, and you decided to let it loose on the neighbourhood when you could have decided to keep it indoors (despite the things stinking up the house).

We got through a fortune trying different cat deterrents until we found one that worked.

I wish I had a cat problem to justify getting one
