sure it is. . mothballs are poisonous and used to kill pests like roaches.
Because they can be fatal if ingested, mothballs are not a safe choice to deter cats. Two safer alternatives are vinegar and ammonia.
Using mothballs to repel cats is not recommended as they are toxic and can harm the cats. It is best to use humane methods like creating barriers, using repellents specifically designed for cats, or contacting animal control for assistance if necessary.

They can both be pets. That's a bad question.
Mothballs ineffective Animal's arent "repeled" from mothballs, but they may avoid (step over) them, if they were just placed there. Naphthalene and Paradichlorobenzene sublimate quickly, so for extended periods of time in the outdoors the chemical's would be so dilute. I even doubt they would be so much as unpleasent to animal's unless you fertilze your lawn with them. My answer is pretty much no. PLUS, if you place them near your house (say, under your deck or in an attached shed), chances are excellent YOU will be repelled by the odor, and will be constantly compelled to think about long days spent in your elderly aunt's attic (which, unless she stashed the cash she bequeathed to you up there, is/was not a pleasant experience). Now, we need an answer on "how long do mothballs take to decay?"Answer 2:Mothballs DO repel some animals. When used as intended they repel or kill insects such as moths and silverfish. There is some evidence they repel snakes and keep away mice or other pests.

Moth balls are POISONOUS to cats! Bad idea!
I am a chemist. The napthalene in mothballs is not only a poison to moths but other animals as well (like dogs and cats). So you may be keeping the feral cats away permanently. Please consider a more humane option like calling animal control or the local humane society.

Mothballs are legally sold for use of the purposes listed on the label. It is illegal to use mothballs for other purposes including using mothballs in gardens.
