A cat, as in one? Try about 100, these piece of crap neighbors let the population get WAY out of hand. Now we are stuck with all these wild cats. .22 caliber population control began about 6 months ago.

or you can just put antifreeze in the animal trap
This sounds promising.

small electrical current from a battery wired into a small bowl of wet cat food... they learn quick to stay away from your car..

Not bad. I started thinking about the trapping idea....I bet a catch a lot more than cats.... the dogs have already killed 3 oppossums and treed a raccoon in the backyard.

Duct tape layed where the cat goes turned sticky side up.

I had a cat that would jump into a window and rattle the blinds and wake me up. I used masking tape. It still woke me up, but I got a laugh out of it. Broke her of the habbit after a few times.

Moth ***** are supposed to keep them away also.
