We keep chickens and prefer to have them free range in our unfenced yard. Just the other day we lost another one to a bobcat. Will CatScram deter bobcats?

Thank you.

I recieved this feedback from EPIC - the manufacturer of Cat Scram:

Scram for Cats was desigened to stop domestic and feral cats from using an area or garden where the repellent is applied as a litterbox, or to prevent those types of cats from lounging in or frequenting an application area. It almost certainly will not prevent a naturally wild cat such as a bobcat from hunting prey for food. Scram for Cats will modify optional behavoir, where the cat can choose to go elsewhere for the same result, but is not designed to modify sustenance behavior, especially when that behavior is predation involving stalking and hunting mobile prey.

Thanks for this information. I'm sorry it wasn't the answer I was hoping for, but it's good to know.
