Like many pet owners, we have a few areas of the house we
don’t want the pets to be. We’ve tried many things to keep them away, from covering the area to scaring them away ourselves when we see them.
The only thing we’ve found that seems to be working consistently is the
SSScat Cat Repellent. It’s an automated deterrent that works using a
battery operated motion detector attached to a can of air. That’s it. The spray direction can be adjusted to 15 different angles and detects up to three feet away.
We’ve discovered a few
drawbacks, though. The can that comes with the spray claims to be good for up to
200 sprays, which I seriously doubt. We received our unit on a Thursday and by Sunday the can was
completely empty. We double checked that the seal was tight and not leaking by listening to it before we placed it, as instructed by other reviews. So, though you’re warned against it and I don’t condone it, we removed the top from a can of compressed air (used for cleaning computer components, found in the office supply store), put the detector top on it, and it’s been going strong for over three weeks now. That’s a difference of about
$10 and
18 days, and counting!
Also, you will
startle yourself a few times with this because you won’t remember it’s there. It’s pretty unobtrusive and if used in a fairly high traffic area you’ll definitely get your blood pumping the first few times it goes off on you!
Don’t let the name fool you either - it works well on
dogs too!
