Default Cats and gravel


"Dark Angel" wrote in message
...
OK, i recently gravelled a section of my front yard using 10mm pea gravel,
and since then every cat in the neighbourhood has been using it as its
personal litter tray.

I was wondering, would putting down 20mm gravel in its place solve the
problem? As its larger they cant paw it over so well.

Anyone had any experience with this?


I used 20mm chippings specifically to prevent the well-known problem of
small gravel attracting cats to use it as a litter tray. Over the past 10
years, none of the 6 tonnes I put down has tempted any cats.
