Cats can be a real headache for gardening enthusiasts.

Their playfulness and curiosity can lead to unpleasant consequences for your garden beds.

However, there are several ways to protect plants from cats and ensure their safe prosperity, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .

Provide secure barriers

Enclose your garden with special nets or fences that will prevent cats from entering the garden beds. This is the simplest and most effective way of protection.

Use aromatic repellents

Build cat traps

These are special devices that help distract cats from your plants. Place them in a remote part of your garden so that cats can have fun without damaging your beds.

Plant plants that cats don't like

Some plants, such as lavender or rosemary, may be unpleasant to cats and will discourage them from your garden.

Do not use soft surfaces

Cats love to roll around on soft surfaces, so avoid using straw or other soft materials around the beds.

By following these tips, you can protect your garden from unwanted guests and ensure that your plants thrive safely.

Remember that every cat is unique, and it may take a little time and patience to find the best way to protect them. Don't be discouraged, and your efforts will not go unnoticed.
