I’ve found the cats don’t seem too interested in where the hogs are living but wonder if they would show more interest if hoglets appear? Could be tricky? Cats seem to use my garden as a thoroughfare but I found cats don’t like the smell of peppermint so sprayed fences where they were using as a toilet with this ( body shop version- meant for feet !) and also dried tea bags with a couple of drops of olbas oil. This was before I knew I had hog visitors but you could peg the tea bags to plants so they are off the ground as not sure hogs would like it either or if it would cause irritation? Holly or pyracanthas cuttings may deter cats too and encourage them to go elsewhere. Not sure how hogs would manage the thorns though ….could hurt paws if laid flat. Just some ideas ?
