I agree they are a nuisance in veggie gardens and you can get powder to put down and if you see them chase them away . If you have a sandpit for your grandchildren then make sure you keep it covered.
Baldric, I dont think it would be theft, once released into the wild it would be considered a wild animal I expect. I may be wrong.
ClaryS, cat poo is not always buried, some cats will just scrape a bit of dirt around but not always buried, I certainly would not want it in my garden where children are playing.

There are a number of things on the market you can use - which you can buy from garden centres. I think they vary in effectiveness (stuff such as Scoot etc).
I've heard people trying orange peel, or lion poo.
The best way is to catch the cat at it and give it a good old squirt with the hosepipe. Do that a few times and it should put it off.
If you know where the cat's entry point is, you can always erect some barrier - eg to stop our cats going over the fence into next door's, we've strung wire above the fence line and put thick climbers up.
