I loved this article. Some years ago I bought some "Scaredy Cat Coleus" and have them placed as a line defense in front of the house plants. The cats clearly don't like it (but the dog will eat it if she gets a chance) and just brushing against a leaf will release the smell that is reminiscent of skunk. It helps some.
