Manufacturer's Description
Protect your garden habitat with the Big Cheese Cat repeller.

There are 9 million cats in the UK. The mammal society says cats kill around 275 million prey items a year, including 55 million birds. Voles and other small mammals make up much of the remainder.

The Sonic Cat Repeller will help protect your garden habitat and encourage wildlife and birds back into it. The Sonic Cat Repeller incorporates a sophisticated PIR (Passive Infra Red) detection system, which constantly monitors a fan shaped area of a 98 degrees arc up to a distance of 12 metres. The protected area is over 120sq. meters of unobstructed space. The Sonic Cat Repeller detects animals moving into this area and triggers a burst of continuously variable ultrasound, which sweeps a frequency range of 18,000Hz, 24,000 Hz to repel them. Simultaneously the LED indicator on the front of unit signals that it is now activated.

The Sonic Cat Repeller is powered by two 9V alkaline batteries. Battery power is conserved by the PIR detection system, which allows the unit to remain on stand-by between activation periods, therefore maximizing battery life.

The Push on/off Test Button on the face of the unit will drop the sonic frequency to an audible range. This enables you to check that the unit is functioning properly and to hear the swept frequency. The unit is also weather resistant.

Customer Reviews

Fantastic!
I have had this product for several days now and I must express my total amazement at how efficient this is. I only required it to cover a small area outside my front door. The cats kept fouling this area and when the sun blazed down on it.... well, you can imagine the smell. This would happen up to three times a day. From the minute I plugged this in (I opted to purchase the small transformer as well) the cats just stopped. I believe they do a slightly larger model that may be more suitable for larger areas. My grandson and granddaughter who are eight and four can here the sound and it does really bother them. Having said that ....they only hear it when approaching & leaving my house.

They don't work
These things DO NOT WORK. Do not waste your money. I do not have any pets but five cats seem to want to spend time in my garden, all are undetered by this device. I know it works because my daughter and I can hear it when we walk past it, the cats saunter by as if it wasn't there. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

I would rate this item ZERO but the Amazon system won't let me so ignore the one star.

I'm back to buy a second one
I originally purchased The Big Cheese - Cat Repeller last year after problems with cats fowling my driveway. The repellar immediately reduced the problem and then about a month later completely eliminated the issue as i repositioned the detector to eliminate a blind spot. Correct positioning is important for the device. Cats do still come on my driveway, but quickly turn and leave without stopping. It needs to cover as wide an area uninterrupted as possible. Battery life is good. The only issue I had was the unit did fail after about 8 months. I just sent it back and got a replacement under warranty in less than a week. Hence the 4 and not 5 stars. I would certainly recommend it and am just going to buy a second unit for the back garden. This will make my property a cat free zone!!!
