ABSTRACT:
A battery operated device for indoor use in deterring domesticated animals from approaching or climbing on an object. The device incorporates a sensor which senses the approach of the animal and relays a signal to a motor, thus activating the pump to deliver the fluid contained within a reservoir to a mist sprayer. The device delivers the fluid in a misting manner coming in contact with the approaching animal, so as to not damage any indoor furnishings. The sensing mechanism is of the type capable of detecting the presence of a magnetic field, of detecting the animal through the elevated temperature of the animal or the detecting the approach of the animal within a certain proximity to the sensor. The device remains undetectable to the approaching animal and thus the animal is unable to associate the device with the offensive spray of fluid.
