You can buy scents to attract and repel animals, e.g. for hunting or gardening, respectively. Since they are not for internal (or topical, AFAIK) use, they are not regulated. I don't imagine the market for say estrous deer butt-glands is huge, but if you need that stuff, it'll cost ya.

This is legitimate, the urine of foxes and bobcats is regularly used to keep pests out of gardens such as squirrels, moles, voles, and other such critters. I understand that Skunks can be kept away with such products too. rdc Harmon Seaver wrote: Heck, you can get some pretty nice scents from ads in the back of Fur-Fish-Game, the trapper's magazine. Also any place that sells trapping supplies (I know there are some web sites for trap supplies now, but don't have an URL) would carry scents. Cat, fox, coyote urine and gland scents, skunk, you betcha! And it's amazingly strong. And long lasting.

The original poster suggested cat piss to keep the deer away, horse manure does the same trick - with regard to deer. Reese

Yep: http://www.critterridders.com/urine.htm offers fox, bobcat, wolf, and coyote. Whee! The deer in our yard pretty much ignore the cat piss we leave out near the rose bushes[1]. There's also cat piss from the wild bobcats, and the coyote piss from the coyotes. All the critters follow pretty much the same path around the house, and those that are wont to do so leave their marks in the appropriate spots. The deer don't seem to care. Having spent a childhood with horses, I don't think that police horses in the midst of a riot, or even a crowd of people, are going to care much about a whiff of cat piss. Horses are much more visual than anything else, and horses in a crowd of people are going to be paying full attention to what they're seeing, not what they're smelling. If it was a horse that's out in the woods, going down a trail under trees or next to a rock outcrop, and smells mountain-lion pee, it might pay closer attention or maybe decide to go a different way. But a police horse, in a crowd of people? It'd hardly notice the smell. It could well flinch at the motion of someone throwing something at it, but for that, water would do just as well. -- Eric Murray http://www.lne.com/ericm ericm at lne.com PGP keyid:E03F65E5 Security consulting: secure protocols, security reviews, standards, smartcards.

Hello: There are people who have a fetish in urine. I know in the gay community, there is a sub-culture of those who love to urinate on each other. Its called golden showers. I happen to have a fetish in soft clear plastic (making and wearing clear plastic raincoats); and I had received an unusual request. A man requested that I sew together two large piece of soft clear vinyl to create a sealable sack about the size os a king size bed mattress. He put it on the top of his bed and then crawled into it. He would lay there and urinate in it. Sometimes he did this alone and sometime he did this with a partner. These fetish people pay big bucks. The guy literally thrust 200 bucks into my suprised hand to have me make him the garment. I was lucky enough to be able to sew. This goes to show you that there is a market for everything. And, suprisingly, it could be a lucrative one. One evening, in Seattle, someone had offered to buy one of my crystal clear vinyl plastic raincoats off of my back for 80 bucks cash on the spot!
