Don’t let your cats be outdoor cats. It seriously harms local bird populations. Cats are murderous little shits.
Make a little fully-fenced-in area if you think they need to be outside.

How do I prevent cats from coming in underneath the fence though?
Chicken wire both keeps pest animals out and acts as a base for any climbing plants you may put against your fence.
You can just staple it on. Paint over it to match your fence color if you want to keep it from rusting
Nothing prevents "in" with cats. You can only plan for "out".
I just want to stop them from shitting in my yard where the kids play.
