How do I keep my cat off my window screens?

I don't know if this would work, but I was told a while back when my kids had a sand box in the back yard that sprinkling black pepper in the sand would stop cats from pooping in it. It worked. I wonder if putting a small amount of black pepper where the screen sits in the window would be a deterrent. Worked in the sand box.

We put a cover on ours. Worked like a charm.

Well that is the obvious solution but this wasn't designed to be a sandbox. It was under an elevated playhouse type thing and was not able to covered easily.
