There are products available at gerden centers but they end up being costly. They have to be reapplied often if it rains or in an area you water regularly. Use a cayenne pper solution or sprinkle pepper powder directly in the areas he goes. It won't hurt your plants at all.

I have heard that if you place moth balls in your garden it will keep cats out. My grandmother swears by it.
