These are crystals that you spread in the area you want to deter the cat from getting to. They have a strong scent that animals do not like and will stay away from. Depending on the weather, the smell will usually last a week or two before you need to reapply. You can also use these inside your home, if you want to keep your cat or dog away from a certain space.

Urine Off for Cats & Kittens
If you can that a stray cat is peeing on items in your backyard or home, and they keep going back to the same spot, this is going to help to stop that. The Urine Off spray will kill the odour and get rid of the stain. General household cleaning products will not get rid of the urine smell that draws the animal back to the spot. This is usually used indoors but it can be used outside in the backyard if needed.
