Protecting Backyard Wildlife From a Cat

I have a duck nesting in my backyard. There are about 7 eggs inside and they're due to hatch anytime now. The problem is the cat next door and the owners who refuse to do anything about it. We've patched the holes in the fences, bought cat repellent, set a cat trap loaned to us by our local animal control, and rigged some wire fencing along the top of some of the entry ways on the fence. I know cats can be very clever and unless I can sit in the yard 24/7, I fear the ducklings are doomed.

I read the suggestion about the balloons and you can bet I'm going to try that, but anymore suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
