Nature's MACECat Mace 2.5lb Granules, Repellent for Outdoors to Keep Cats Away, for Yard, Garden, & Plants, No-Dig Deterrent and Training Tool, Safe to Use Around People, Pets, & Landscape

We've tried everything to keep the neighbor's cat from spraying our boxwood bushes. He has ruined five+ shrubs. Lemons didn't work, cinnamon didn't work, this 'Cat Mace' does! Does not smell bad and is working well. I wish I had discovered this product sooner!

I bought this product because we have a cat that keeps coming through our property and marking our vehicles (especially mine!). I spread some of the product around the driveway, and in front of my car (the cat's favorite place to mark). The second day after doing that, I watched the cat on our security camera as he walked right across the product, and marked my car! So, after cleaning off the front of my car, I put even more of the product out. The next night...same thing! Needless to say, I pretty much lost faith in the product, swept it off the driveway, and poured the rest of it out on the other side of the driveway. I just got finished watching that cat walk right through what I poured out, and through the driveway like it was nothing.I think that it may work better on people instead of cats, because the mix of smells this product has is absolutely disgusting! I tried to work out in my garage after spreading it out on the driveway, and i wanted to puke! It took a couple of days before I was able to deal with the smell.Overall, I would not recommend wasting your money on this product. I'm actually going to try an ultrasonic animal repeller. I really hope it works, so I don't have to go with the "nuclear option."2/11/21 update - As if what I wrote above isn't bad enough...I washed my car today, and got the stuff that I poured out beside my driveway wet. It smelled like I was standing in the middle of a chickenhouse. Now, for those of you who don't know what a chickenhouse smells like...trust me, you don't want to know!!! Sadly, I won't be able to get rid of what is spread out without completely digging out the areas and disposing of it. Gee, can't wait until it rains! <sarcasm>

Did not deter the cats

Don’t spread it all out at once just try certain high traffic areas 1st, then add more & you should see results immediately. I wish I had ordered sooner. No more Tom cats spraying & killing my expensive shrubs, @ definitely no more digging up my freshly planted flowers to do their business. Completely harmless to them, just a deterrent. Which I loved the most.-Jenna

I am so disappointed. This did not work at all. We have 3 stray cats around our house that sit on the window sills every evening meowing and scratching at the windows for hours. It drives me insane. I don’t want to hurt them, I just want them to stay away from the windows.I liberally spread this product all over the window sills and areas where the cats meow and scratch at the windows and less than 24 hours later they were there, meowing and scratching, completely unaffected by this product being spread all over the place.I don’t know what else to do at this point, but this was a complete waste of money.

Ordered this product on the recommendation of our neighbors. We have a lot of feral cats in our neighborhood causing damage under our homes.I didn't want "poison" as I'm an animal lover, but wanted something that would determine the cats from getting under my house. This product worked!I poured about 1/4 cup into a knee high stocking, tied it in a knot, and placed 1 in each corner under my home. I also sprinkled some around the perimeter, up against my house where my dogs don't walk. Haven't had a cat problem since! Would recommend for anyone having an issue with feral cats.

Items does not keep the cats away

I was nervous after reading good and bad reviews. I used the granular in my flowerbeds and the spray on my outdoor furniture and rugs. The cats don’t like it. I have a 1/4 acre lot. I started in the backyard because that’s where we live and entertain in the spring/summer. Now I’m using it in my front planters. I’m really happy with the results.Update 05/12/2025If you live in California, you cannot get this product via Amazon. I called the company and there is an issue regarding the description/labeling? California does not allow agricultural pesticides. But this product is NOT a pesticide. I ordered straight from the company at the same price as Amazon. If your total is over $99 there is free shipping. They also told me I can order from WalMart and it will be delivered without problem.Here is WalMart's description of the product:Repels and Trains Cats and Kittens to Stay Away.Stops Cat Digging, Scratching, and Other Unwanted Behaviors.
