Recently we have been having a couple of cats come into our garden and poo on the lawn. It is getting a nusiance but obviously there is no control over cats or even any laws regarding this.
thinking of different harmless ways to stop them and found a solution. Teazle. As soon as I see a cat in the garden I let Teazle out. First time silly mutt just looked and did nothing until the cat moved. Best exercise she gets, now cat chasing is a sport, never catches them but hopefully they will think twice and poo in someone elses garden instead, hopefully the owners.

you could put the rhino video on a big screen in the garden. They will be so glued to that they will forget why they are there.

Don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it, but it was just a little joke.
Cats always poo where they have poo’d before. Put a sprinkler on the lawn to stop them.

Orange peel and/or tin foil keeps keeps them off too.
Dogs chase cat its kinda normal I don t think theres anything wrong with that so long as the cat runs as it could hurt your dog badly if it turned believe me ive seen it cornered cat will sratch its eyes out to defend itself I own dogs and until recently cats You have already been give the answer in my opinion get a sprinkler add a motion sensor cat will sh.t somewhere else good luck
All cats, in fact antrying is welcome in my garden, I have five that come to planter filled with catnip, a couple will also come through the catflap into the flat.

They can be an absolute pain, my son and his partner had problems with cats pooping in their wooden containers that my son made for growing veg in and the smell was awful…not a lot you can do really, I shoo them away as does my son when we see them.
They come into my garden when I’m feeding the birds, one in particular, again I just shoo them away…plus if Jack is out there,they wouldn’t dare enter.
I have had cats for over 40 years and in a garden with borders they will usually dig a hole to poo & cover it up. If you find in on the grass is may be from a fox, but if it is from a cat why not just pick it up with a poop bag, as you do with your dog.
I appreciate that it may be 30 seconds work but cats are not taken out on leads as dogs are & , until the law changed, many pavements had dog poo left on them where the owner had watched them do it & still left it there.
All creatures have to get rid of their waste & none have toilets, so even humans must have done it on open land once !

Sometimes we misquote, Mags pointed it out to me, so don’t take it personally.
If I get misquoted I just ignore it now.

Cats usually bury their poo. It’s the fox that leaves poo all over the raised beds. Both the cats and the fox think the raised beds are put there as a toilet for them.
Sorry! I loved your post and the reply was for the original post, so I just clicked the wrong reply button!
