Organic gardening 2025

I put wire across the top of mine last year and they still used it for a toilet. That's how bad the cats are here.

When we lived in Livingston, next door neighbor was a cat hoarder. Plus she fed feral cats, 50-60 showed up every night to be fed. They were a nightmare. They peed on the front porch and corner of the house. Dog in backyard killed every one of them that were stupid enough to come in her yard, which weren’t many. Most of my garden was in the front yard, prime kitty poop real estate. I grew to hate them. One year I bought a lot of plastic forks and planted them in the garden, tines up. They were close together so no matter where one of those #*+!&$= cats copped a squat, fork tines poked their patootie. Extreme, but it worked.

On humid days, due to urine soaked corner of house, the aroma wafted through the house. Front porch smelled like an open sewer. Clorox, every chemical known to mankind, did not work. Fortunately most days were either too hot and dry or too cold. Blech.

50'sF is prime exercise and gardening time. if you can talk yourself into getting going you will soon find out it is plenty warm enough... just thinking out loud here... good luck...

AGREED! In February, me and @flowerbug are outside taking off our winter coats and enjoying the sunshine!
