8.5 X 6.5 Inch Scat Mat for Cats with 6 Garden Staples & 6 Ties, 12 Pack Cat Deterrent Mat for Garden Fence & Animal Barrier

I love these! They can be connected together to protect young trees & plants from squirrels & most times moles. Squirrels are unable to dig, as well as cats & dogs. The only thing I’ve found to work for the squirrels. I use them inside if my cats begin to play in my plants & dig. The spikes are plastic, but pointed as well, so they shun them. I’ve even used them to prevent my dogs from urinating, etc on them outdoors. They very economical as well!

These were pretty easy to cut to the length and width that I needed. The cats have finally left my dang plants alone. 😉 So I've ordered another set to make sure that all my plants have them in the base.

This works great to keep my cat out of my potted trees. He had a habit of digging in the dirt and this now prevents him from doing that. I just wish there were more metal spikes for holding the pieces down, I only had 15 in my box. I have other areas I would like to use but I have to acquire more metal spikes.

Meh.. they are ok. Kind of small and a pain to put so many small pieces over all of the counters.

I have officially had these long enough that I can now leave a review. They have done great at keeping my cats out of the dirt in my plants. The other products I had tried did not do anything to deter my cats from getting in the dirt. Highly recommend these and will probably order more soon.

This is an extremely brittle product. If it gets stepped on, the spikes break into pieces. I realize it's not meant to be stepped on (except by small animals). But if you don't know it's there, accidents can happen. Also, I don't believe you can recycle it so when it's time to throw it out, you get to contribute to the plastic problem.

I’ve tried everything to stop my cat from peeing in my plants, and this was the winner.

I have a window, AC unit, and my cats kept jumping on top of it. I was afraid the extra weight would cause it to fall out of the window or break the window itself. I didn’t know what to do until I found this cool cat scat mat. it makes my cats uncomfortable so they don’t want to lay on top of the AC anymore. But it’s also made of plastic so they didn’t cut their little paws when they first tried. This was a very good value for the money and a super useful product.
