Here feral cats are done free and they will even loan out traps to catch them but the catch is you have to release them back where you got them. Unfortunately people do not realize that there are many places where low cost or free spaying and neutering is done by the SPCA and other organizations. However, if the woman is hoarding cats in her home, then you have a health condition. I do not know how FL is about stray, feral, or loose cats but here the animal control will do nothing. there are products sold to sprinkle on ground and plants and check the stores and eBay for prices. Female cats spray too! You could also try moth balls in the flower beds too. The cats are spraying their territory and warning others that this is their territory. Motion water would be great too but you need something that they will detest to keep them out. I would buy a supersoaker and fill with vinegar and some water and squirt the cats. To deter the cats you need to apply many methods-water, scent, and noise. I have 2 dogs which are great for chasing the squirrels and stray cats out of the yard too and this has helped a lot. My cats do not roam far and are in every night. My neighbors know my cats and after seeing them catch voles, moles, and mice in their yards and under their decks, do not seem to mind anymore since they are serving a purpose. I have 2 indoor/outdoor spayed females who let me know when the cat is outside on the deck if all animals are in-this is a rare occurrence and one of the feral males look just like one of my cats. I live in a large subdivision and there is a feral male or two who enter my yard and spray which is the worst smell in the world.

They end up in pounds getting killed also. Just remember if you take them to the pound is to kill them! The problem is people who have cats that are to lazy or don't care about over populations, of cats and dogs, and let their cats have litter after litter, and there are no homes for cats and dogs, all that love animals have taken in all they can. Yes, I had people dump cats, kittens, off and it was insane for awhile, I had to get local people who help trap and release them, I did do TNR for 40 years just to help cut the population down. I never had them and any other of my pets get disease from them. I had deer, fox, raccoons, feral cats, bunny's, goats, dogs and pot belly's. I lived in a very rural area surrounded by beautiful nature. If cat goes into your flower beds use moth balls, they do not like the smell and will stay away and your not harming, mam eing and killing a animal. If you take a trapped feral they kill them :( Look for a animal organization who will help with TNR. cats and dogs are killed every years! In Pa.
