How do you stop a cat from messing in your garden?
Spots can be 'filled' by putting prunings of roses or other spiky plants (cut into small pieces about 3" long) into or on the soil. Spread them over the soil to protect new sowings and plantings. Another thing you can try is Pine Straw mulch. I know I wouldn't walk on them barefooted.

Hope this helps ;-)
Reply:I've been wondering the same thing . . and contrary to Loris' answer, it is not fertilizer . . it's acidic and deadly to plants. I'm this side of getting me a pellet gun and shooting anythign I see in there.
Reply:Eliminate the cause.
Reply:do you have a cat? if so take something it lays on like a rug and put it near your garden. that might keep it away
Reply:Well, if he is not digging everything up, just consider it as he is fertilizing for free...
Reply:I had a neighbor's cat using my container plants as its litter box. I found a product called Repell for $1.99 that I sprayed in a perimeter around my yard that kept kitty from crossing it. You can find it at pet stores and at the discounters in the pet aisle. Everything else I tried, dried mustard, cayenne pepper, %26amp; red pepper flakes, etc. didn't deter him, but after a couple of applications of Repell, he stopped coming around my yard.
