I don't mind the cats sitting around the pond.

It's a guarantee the herons won't be visiting!

My only fear is a cat falling in and not being able to get out.

i have had cats visit and look in the pond but never any problems

My cat has never bothered the fish but he’s definitely a good heron deterrent

Brilliant that Martin,
The cat may stay. I was more concerned about them swiping at the fish.

I've kept cats & ponds all my life (81 this year) and never any trouble. Our cat drinks the pond water, receives koi pellets as an occasional treat and often comes nose to nose with the larger koi but never any trouble.

I think our present cat would run a mile at the sight of a heron, but luckily we've never seen one in the garden.

It's wrong to call cats vermin, they are domestic pets!!
