Keeping cats out of the sandbox

[dmontgomery]

I am hesitant to put a big sandbox in our backyard with all the neighborhood cats around that would likely use it as a big litter box.

Anyone have any good tips for keeping them out?

Vinegar! I use a vinegar and water mixture that I spray around the edges. Safe for kids and cats hate the smell!

That is a great idea, I will have to try it!
