I'm About Ready to Kill My Cat
    #19130893 - 11/13/13 11:52 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

I've posted about my cat before and how she loves to sabotage my monotubs. I haven't found any solution that will stop her and I'm at my wits end, so I think I need to change my growing situation. I'm very open to suggestion on this. I am thinking that my best move may be to switch to trays but I don't know what would be better to fruit in- a greenhouse setup or SGFC?

Monotubs are definitely out though. My cat lives to push the polyfill out, dangle her arms in, and get the tub contaminated. This morning I found fruit on the floor that she pulled out with her paws. She's little, so there's nowhere I can put them where she won't get to them. It's just not worth losing anymore harvests.

That's pretty fucked man, I'd be really pissed. If there truly is no place that this cat can't get to, then idk what to tell you. Put your tubs in another room and shut the door? I don't know your setup, but if there was an easy solution, I feel like you would have solved this already.

gh's have there  benifits for sure, once dialed in they are an asset to me! but sgfc's  also work well for trays but are not all that convenient as i can only fit one in there.

You could go buy an old rabbit cage to put the monotubs in. If you like bigger monotubs then you could, ironically, buy a cat cage. They're only like $50 at the most on craigslist. I feel like that is well worth having to change your entire setup and getting a fraction of the yields.

Get a cheap wire kennel.  Put your monotub inside so that there is a foot of space between the tub and the cage.  Done.

I think it's awful to treat a living creature, one that you adopted and vowed to take care of as family (how I see things, as a keeper of one wonderful cat) as some object that you can just 'get rid of' (orphan).

Equally awful is to consider caging your cat over something like this, so please don't resort to doing those kind of things.

It sounds to me like your cat is bored. Are you spending enough time with her? If that's not the problem, sometimes it's necessary to use a little negative reinforcement, if it really is completely impossible to keep her out of your stuff. A clean spray bottle full of water (maybe one you use for misting) is pretty harmless (at least, a lot less psychologically/physically harmless than killing her or orphaning her at a shelter) but drives the point across, and also tell her in a stern tone of voice that her behaviour is unacceptable. Balance this with positive reinforcement; i.e. if she goes a day or two without wrecking your tubs, give her treats.

Use chicken wire or something to fence off your grow area?

The holes on the sgfc-s are small enough to keep your cat out of it.

thought this was a funny, haha
I have a dog and a kitten, the kitten learned not to go near my monotub, as i'd clap my hands loudly and pick her up and sit her down,
