Leave a bowl of anti-freeze out, the smell puts them off

Those sonic repellers work, although if they're battery powered make sure it's not going to be in direct sunlight cause the sun sets them off and you'll get through mountains of batteries.

But maybe it tastes nice, maybe you should drink a bowl full and let us know.

A Super-Soaker water pistol filled with water and chilli powder. When you spot the cat, fire the water at it. It won't hurt but the cat will then lick the water. It still won't hurt, but it'll then lick its ringpiece.........

Cutting their heads off with a sharp sword is pretty humane

Halal cats anyone

this will seem pretty random but go to your local zoo and ask for some tiger/lion poo and put a little in your garden, they will smell this and won't even step foot in your garden

I used to have lots of cats until I got a greyhound, now even the fastest cats don't risk it especially after she pulled one out of the bush and shook it!

They don't like the smell of Ginger (not ginger folks )
Sprinkle some over the garden. Does no harm to the plants and will keep the cats away.
