Do Coffee Grounds keep cats out of gardens?

Many gardening experts suggest the use of coffee grounds to discourage cats and other animals from getting into your garden. But some cats will go out of their way for a chance to drink coffee, does it work?

Most of the time, yes, coffee grounds can be an effective way to keep outdoor cats out of your garden. It’s less effective on indoor cats, especially if they live with coffee drinkers. That’s because the scent of coffee and coffee grounds are a lot more common inside. Your indoor cat isn’t as likely to be phased by the different scents because it’s something they live with every day you drink coffee.
