So I live in an apartment in Texas. They have a lot of stray cats around here but for the past week the cats have been pooping all over my patio. I have a two year old and we love being ut on the patio but now we can't anymore. I have called my apartment people for the last four day and they still haven't done anything about it. Is there someone I can call about this and what can I do to scare the cats off.

Have you tried calling animal control? Calling the Humane Socitey or even posting a FREE ad on www.craigslist.org or www.kijiji.com saying "stray cats in need of a home".

Animal Control office at the county Sheriff is probably your best bet. I've never heard of anything that will keep cats out that you can have in an apartment. Even getting a dog would be problematic since they have already "claimed" your patio.
