Bloody cats believe that my bonsai patch are their toilet facilities...

Larry, there is a train of throught that says that Bonsai were kept in egypt, primarily of healing herbs so that the travelling healers could take their plants with them, also, emperors? had trees in pots outside their pyramids, again tending to be healing herbs like rosemary in order to ward off evil spirits, at this point it was not a realised art form purely a religious/spiritual aid.

Regards
Rowan

Why not build a homemade one Jerry?

All you need is a cat litter tray, cat litter and the all important ingredient........ a small claymore mine.

Jerry, if you want guaranteed cat-free bonsai, you should move to Minnesota Apparently Wisconsin is slightly friendlier to cats. Poots, you'd better stay in Ohio.

Wouldn't that be called a "Cat Trap"?
