thanks for all the replies.
I'll give the pepper etc a go.
I have actually tried a water pistol.
I swear the cat was smiling at me while it sat on the fence with me firing at it.
to be honest, I don't mind animals, but with 2 young kids, and a small garden, I can't leave the cat to carry on.
Incidentally, i get on well with my neighbours, but thinking about it, they had there whole garden paved and a huge summer house erected last year, so where do they expect the cats to go ?
especially when they put them outside all day.
