Ah, yes very good idea.. I do like the sock idea. I have really no worries of snakes where I am at.. At least the rattle snakes. I didn't know they made sprays etc. to keep the cats away? I will check in to that as well. Thanks for all the suggestions... Beth

Dani being a pup, I worry about her eating/mouthing them. She is like a toddler and has to put everything in her mouth.

The stray cats come in my back yard at night or during the day when I am not home. Now I clean it up when I see it, but the cats are coming more often it seems. I don't leave any dog food outside, so that isn't atracking them? Does anyone know of a solution? Last night I put them out for there last call before bedtime and she came in with a mouthful of poop.. Now this wasn't good as she sleeps with us..
