How to keep cats out of raised planter beds? (self.greenspace)

Our neighborhood has a cat problem which means my garden has a cat problem. I've read online that some people spread chilli powder on their soil to keep cats away but I'd really rather not do that.

Hopefully it's a common enough problem that someone here has found a better solution. Help please!

I have chickens too.. and no mice! 😄
I might just have to make it physically impossible for them to do their business near the veggies, might not be pretty though.
