A FURIOUS MUM has resorted to using cat litter because sick locals are using her toy shop as a toilet.
Karen Watson claims lazy passers-by urinate and even poo at the rear of her shop, where charity donations are temporarily stored.

The mum-of-three explained that she is so frustrated with the situation that she is considering leaving her town centre store.
Karen said that she uses the cat litter to soak up human waste as part of her extreme measures.
She claimed that the children‘s charity shop had also become the target of vandals.
The charity owner says she has sprinkled 20 bags of absorbent material around the border of her storage unit.
She keeps excess donations, including toys and clothes, as well as rubbish in the outdoor storage space.
But the outdoor storage space has been broken into and bags of stock have been ransacked
She told Ayrshire Live: “It started in the summer, the smell of urine was horrific out the back door.
“I’ve tried everything, but nothing took the smell away.
“It’s not even just peeing, we’ve had reports of people pooing here too. It is absolutely disgusting.
“I want out, I’m absolutely desperate to move. I’ve had three break-ins in two years.
“We had vandals recently who just trashed everything. The next day, I caught someone peeing against the fence. That was the last straw.
“The car park behind us is just being used as a toilet. Some people just park up their car and then pee against our fence.
Karen added: “I started putting down cat litter to see if that would help. Since the summer, I’ve spent a fortune on 20 bags of cat litter.
“I don’t even like cleaning my own bloody bathrooms, never mind other people’s urine outside. It is vile, people just don’t care.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We received a report of a possible break-in to a premises on Arthur St, Ayr on Thursday, January 18. Advice has been given to the complainer.”
