beach chick Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 hiya - not been on for ages, hope everyone is well... anyway, the problem is that one of our 3 cats is being mobbed by a gang of up to 5 jackdaws. every time he goes outside, they gang up on him - they dont bother with the other cats, or the dog, or the chickens, its just poor Stanley who is in for it!! any ideas of how to shoo them away and keep them away? dont think an air rifle would be popular, and I'd miss anyway... I've tried lobbing the odd pebble, but its just as effective to go outside and wave my arms - and I cant do that all day every day!! thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xChicken04x Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Would this be any good? It might scare them off? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pet-Corrector-Dogs-Cats-Product/dp/B001A36B8Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=garden&qid=1276637963&sr=8-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would tool up with a super soaker myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I'm afraid I come all over Rambo when I get hold of a super soaker Have been known to make small children cry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Tut tut CM - I do like the idea of aiming water at things that move. Was hosing plants the other day and accidently hosed the hens - not powerful just a spray but they looked shall we say peeved!! Bit stupid as they run round in the rain like loonies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
