can you spray a christmas tree with this to keep cats off?

As I don't believe there is any chemicals that would harm either a live or artificial tree, I believe you could, but I would first spray on a test area near the trunk, to make sure no fading or adverse affects happen before spraying whole tree. Just the same, there are other products to keep cats away from area.

Not that I know of. I usually just sprayed. Now if the kitties are real young and small, I would probably not spray where they are directly. Our animals (cars and dogs) all kind of scattered when we would spray.

youd need a few of them to cover the area. But yes, if it covers the area and a cat puts pressure on it by standing or touching, it should alarm and scare them off.

Probably not. It is intended for spraying issues (cleaning it up and eliminating pheromones and odor). Cats don't avoid it really, just don't feel the compulsion to mark things it has been sprayed on.

I didn't use the product that way. I probably wouldn't simply due to how disgusting cat pee can be. Just the thought of covering it up with a spray is not an option for me.

I have used this product for several years and spray it on any furniture I do not want my 4 cats to use as a scratching post. I find it more effective than using thediffusers in various rooms. Your kitty may avoid you if you spray it on yourself. Perhaps a question for the mfr.

My cats seemed to take their time getting on the cat tree too. I took some catnip and rubbed it on each of the levels then put them on it. That seemed to get them familiar with it and now they use it more often.

No. This keeps leaf eaters from eating the plants you spray it on. This might keep cats from eating your catnip. But other than that - cats don't eat a lot of leaves

No. I don't see how one could and I don't think it would be a good idea. This is a great and useful thing for giving cats a taste of the outdoors, or even using it indoors to keep them from getting under foot, but you still need to monitor them when they're in it.

It may but my neighbor had the same problem with one of her cats and I told her to use a large tote for a litter box and it stopped the problem, they can spray in it but it still stays inside of the tote.

If you want to entice your cats to use the scratcher, try a catnip spray rather than the dried leaves! It will give them the aroma without the mess of the leaves. I did not need to use any catnip to lure my gang to the scratcher...just tossed a few toys on & in it and that was that!

I just read the can and it says to ventilate well after spraying carpets and other items. I would have the carpet very dry so the cat does not inhale any of the very toxic particulants.

It's made from tree sap, so it's a golden brown. If you apply it thickly enough to the area where the kids grab onto the tree to climb, it should work as a deterrent. It's very sticky and messy. You may want to put up a little warning sign, just as a courtesy. I use it to keep the neighborhood cats off the top of my wood fence, and it works beautifully. They don't like to get their paws sticky. And they can't read. ;)

It won't keep the cat from coming back. If it can't be used on wood it's likely due to the fact that wood is a natural substance and the spray works by using enzymes to digest naturally occurring proteins.

When we have had our cat boarded, he is very angry on return and makes messes everywhere. The Feliway plug in now prevents this. He stays calm and behaves well. It seems to subdue him. So I think it would work for spraying too.

it helps with problem spraying of cats. it does take the smell out and they don't go back to it.

Dear Irene - Because it dries odor free, you could use Messina Cat Stopper on your firewood. My advice would be to apply Cat Stopper to dry wood while it is outside (or in garage or basement) using the "mist" setting (rather than the "jet stream" setting). Let dry for about one hour before bringing wood indoors. Keep infants and toddlers away from wood bin, since product has a tingly, but harmless, feeling on skin. Wash your hands with utility soap, or wear gloves during application process. When wet, Cat Stopper has a pleasant, but peppermint-like odor. I do not have info on other indoor cat repellant products. I hope this will help you. Emmyjo. Dear Irene - Because it dries odor free, you could use Messina Cat Stopper on your firewood.
