#cat-deterrents

Use physical deterrents and strategic plantings—orange peelings, vinegar, coffee grounds, exposed plastic forks or chopsticks, pine cones, motion sprinklers, or distant catnip, to protect irises.

Use practical deterrents—olfactory, tactile, and motion-activated—and provide alternative attractions like distant catnip to keep a neighborhood cat off iris plants.
