Well - funny you should ask but we had a challenge we even posted here that all agreed - was a challenge. The oldest (18 yrs) arthritic cat cannot use litter box w/lid, need big wide box, cannot get over even a small gate etc. so we needed to keep puppy out but allow kitty in. And wanted to discourage puppy from eating "recycled" cat food (loosely translated = cat poop).
We read here and many other places, if you sprinkle a bit of hot sauce on a cat-poopoo that will stop it or at least discourage. NOT. Leave it to my little monkey to like hot sauce. I dribbled accidentally a few drops and she lapped them up happily. Even hours later tried to lick carpet where the hot-sauce dried drops were.
Then again - I have the only puppy I know of who hates peanut butter? But...heellllooo??? wants to eat sand. Go figure. Thankfully she stopped the poop ventures on her own. I am guessing the sloppy seconds (ha I crack myself up) of cat food weren't as appealing as the real deal.
