Obviously the cat has taste and knows what should be done with a black bike. Paint it red, job done!!:D

Aversion therephy did it with our cat. Buy a small water pistol and each time he goes to raise a tail near your bike give him a quick squirt with the water pistol - it's important he doesn't see you doing it :D Cats hate getting wet and very quickly relate spraying with getting wet and they tend to stop - clever creatures ;) If nothing else it's very satisfying .....

I'd recommend one of these tied to the bike...

Seriously though, I had the same problem in my last house where a cat kept getting into the car port and peeing up the bike. I bought some spray from B&Q which worked wonders. Don't know what it's called (and I know that's not much help!) but it was a white spray bottle with blue/yellow label. You simply soaked around the area you wanted to protect and it kept the cats away. After six weeks of that (spraying every 5 days, which just about used the whole bottle) the cats break their habit and find somewhere else to mark.

Water spray has worked with all the cats I've had - takes a week or two for the message to sink in tho. Otherwise try citronella pellets (at any good garden centre) if you can stand the smell.....

Shoot the f*****g thing!!!


I thought cats were supposed to be clean?
Don't get me wrong,i'm an animal lover(got a dog),but couldn't live with an animal that pees all round the house!!

I was told to squeeze lemon on anything cats attack, and it works a treat on bin bags. Not much use for the bike unless you prefer lemon-corrosion over cat-pee-corrosion.......

Water-pistol trick sounds the best best, followed closely by the gas mark 6, neeps/tatties solution....:)

The definative answer........

Him indoors says he wont let us have one....:(

Sox is not a bad puss and an excellent guard cat, he just marks my bike alot!
AND...I have peed in a bottle and sprayed him with it!...didn't work!
:lol::lol::frog:

I like the aversion therapy...haven't tried that yet.
My worry though is what he will avert to peeing up next!
Thanks Antonye...I'll try the B and Q thing too!
Does anyone have one of those Black Ducati bike covers??
What are they like? The white ones I've seen are all indoor ones so not waterproof. I thought the Black ones were weather proof but I've only seen them on fleabay....
I dont want to buy one of those Argos bike covers because...well...I have a Ducati that is kept in the house for goodness sake. If he has to have a cover he wants quality!:D
