Electronic cat repellers are meant to be quite good at getting rid of
these
unwanted visitors. I've had enough of cats using my garden as a
toilet so I've
just ordered one of these from this website
http://tinyurl.com/25gkno  but i was
wondering if anyone knows if they
work. My dad has one and says so. Any other
opinions pls?

Yes they do work Daisy but you really need to have either the mains facility
of re-chargeable batteries.

Have you taken all the precautions to keep the vermin out such as carpet
gripper
strips along the top of fences, gates and walls?

Making sure that all freshly raked soils is very wet in the evening?

Best of luck in ridding your garden of the vermin

12 BORE!

Far more effective

A spry I bought 'cat-a-pult' seems to be effective.

Deterred them from my raised bed.  I sprayed the wooden sides and the wall
behind.

Mind you the rain has meant frequent re-applications and not the expected
'14 days' between doses.

I've stopped using now as they seem to be re-trained not to go near.
