    I have had a cat for 19 years. Sadly she passed away two weeks ago. She used to do her "business" in the garden and consequently, plants did not do very well. What can I do to improve the soil so that I can start growing.

    Sorry to hear you lost your pet - but you really don't need to do anything to improve the soil in respect of your cat - if its poor soil, then apply a mulch of good rotted compost, and let the worms take it down over winter, or fork it in. [​IMG]

    Thanks Fran. Can I plant something when I have added the compost do you think?
