Try puting mothbals around and in the garden. Also helps keep out ants,
may attract some birds.
Spray some vinegar around the garden.
Use cat repeling spray, may have to try a few brands.
Find some flowers your cat don't like. Plant some around the garden.
Some flowers even help keep away some nasty bugs.
My cat positively *HATE* asterias (that star shaped fruit), it make her
puke! Some slices or some juice may do the trick.
Sprinkle some hot pepper chips or other strong spices in the area. Most
cats don't like spices. Some pepper spray perhap.

Mothballs are dangerous for cats.

Yep, you wouldn't want to do that. Other, than that, some good ideas,
though!

I think they are also pretty bad for the soil and as far as them attracting
birds, um, I'm not sure about their interest in something like that, however
I do have young grackles in my yard that like to pick up the small stones I
have in my garden area and play w/them.
