If I had paid over £15 for the cat scarers I would have been so very disappointed. They do not function as they should. Those that have experienced success … well … I am surprised if I am honest.
And here’s another thought. Surely if a cat realises the other ‘cat’ is not reacting then they stop being alarmed by it. That means the product has failed, surely?
The neighbourhood cat that fouled in my garden hid behind a plant watching one of the lookalike cat shapes. When he seemed to realise it was not a threat, he sprayed over it instead.
Marketing material on listings (see above but as daytime) is deceptive as it shows powerful green eyes shining bright at night – they do not and I assume whoever created the image used Photoshop.
I have been outside at night to witness these reflective eyes – I could not find the cat scarers in the dark. So my query is: If reflective, how do they reflect in the dark? Is it something only a cat ‘sees’ in the glass eyes that we cannot?
For me personally, I am a cat lover, so I use all three as a feature in the garden. One sits in a pot and the other two in the ground. I was lucky in that I was given a partial refund too. As a garden feature, if you pay around £10, than that is a bargain.
