Problem is slugs not cats. Although coffee grounds are supposed to work for slugs too (they don't).

For slugs put a small saucer/shallow dish with beer in it. My wife says that the slugs around here preferred the darker beers, no pale ale or pilsners. They go in, get drunk, pass out and drown.

This is rather ironic in that this came up last week with my mother. She does the same thing with slugs. Actually pissed my dad off as she used his "precious" Miller Genuine Draft as the bait.

She swears it works.

No, the slugs ate the plants when I tried to grow them outdoors. This year I moved them into my bedroom where there are no slugs and I have a tomato!

However, considering the shit hole of a building my apartment is in, it would not have surprised me if there were slugs in my bedroom.
