Was gonna suggest this, but is only useful through the day (I think)
Scared cats away as they are apparently afraid of there own reflection

How about a sign saying 'No cats'.
Alternatively, write said subject a friendly note.

Grab it, put it in your car, drive about 50 miles away and chuck it out. Sorted

apparently people put segments of lemon in their flower beds to stop cats shitting there. Maybe they don't like citric acid or something.

just found this:
To protect plants and borders both mothballs and citrus are said to be effective deterrents. Place the mothballs, orange peel or lemon rind in the borders. Alternatively spray cloths with orange scented air freshener and place the cloths around the plants you wish to protect. Other known cat repellents are cayenne pepper, coffee grounds, pipe tobacco, lavender oil, lemon grass oil, citronella oil, eucalyptus oil and mustard oil.
