A Georgia grower's cat obsessively drinks from Sarracenia water trays, moving containers and pawing soil. Cayenne pepper was tried. The expert explains cats/dogs like the tannin taste of peat moss water. Best deterrent: peppermint oil on cotton balls around pots (reapply daily). Cats associate pots with peppermint and avoid. Safe for plants.
