Keeping Cats off Vegetable & Fruit Beds

Naughty Kitty using garden for litter box

 I surfed the internet for suggestions for keeping the neighborhood cats out of my Strawberry Pyramid, digging up my plants and using it for a litter box. I will let you know what I do and if it works.

One tip was to scatter Citrus peels around on top of the soil.
 Another tip was to scatter Coffee Grounds around on top of the soil

Look at the Strawberry plants!  They have more than doubled since I planted them.  Now if I can figure out a way to keep the neighbor's cats from using it as a litter box, and digging up the plants in the back, I will be good to go!
