I had bought some peppermint Oil and left the bottle on the bed and one of my Cats jumped up and I found out they hat that.

If I don't want the Cats to go near stuff a couple of drops of peppermint keeps them away but it is only good for a max of 4 days and that is inside of the house.

Way before I owned any Cats of my own I never found the to be much of a bother. Considering the Dog $hit I have stepped nights I have woke up to the neighborhood Dogs crazy barking in the middle of the night I find Cats to be much less troublesome. Cats might walk all over your Car but Dogs piss on it.

I have also never been on a walk and had a Cat barking and nipping at my Pants leg as I have with Dogs (Taco Bell type Dogs and those little dogs that look like an old school Mop Head with shot little legs).
