Cats

Then how about just using some chickenwire or netting to keep birds, cats & dogs away?

I do use netting to keep the white cabbage moths way. I don't have problems with cats, sciencman (who I see has done a runner!) does. I did have a problem with badgers and/or foxes ripping my sweetcorn up though. I built a wooden frame around them which works. Its impractical, expensive and aesthetically unpleasing to net everything though.

Animals should show us humans some respect and leave our food alone!

If you plant courgettes inbetween the sweetcorn the prickly underside of the leaves will stop most animals from getting at them.

I tried that! The Porcupines for miles around flocked to my garden.
