Default Gave up on the battle of keeping my cats off the 911..

Decided to just make it a bit more scratch proof




Sure doesn't look attractive to humans anymore though.

Anyone have other ideas besides get rid of my cats? They do their job. Wish my previous owner had a cat or two. Pulling the evaporator out of the smugglers box is not a task I hope to do ever again real soon.




The good part was no damage. It just looked like it wanted place to stash nuts. No tore up seats or wires. Can't believe they squeeze through the condensate drain hole let alone bring in all those nuts.

I can't leave mine in the driveway for five minutes without a cat calling the rag top home.

I clicked this thread thinking you had to put your catalytic convertor back on. I just went through the process since I have to pass CA smog. Nice felines

My neighbors have a cat that loves placing his but on the roof of my cabby. I always worry about the darn thing scratching the plastic window.

My car has 3-4 heavy blankets that get spread out from back to front always protecting the window first. Even when I am right there working on it and actively chasing them away they want on the car.

Covercaft does make a heavily padded car cover that may work. I think its an exclusive to Pelican.

Murphy had the same exact problem once....ONCE. Then somehow she forced him to sell the car to pay for the wedding. Murphy is likely now driving a Prius wishing his ***** were back in his possession.

I can't say anything. My dad is the neighborhood's crazy cat lady. I can't go to their house without 5 or 6 cats sitting on the car or truck when I come back out.

Looks like you need the GarageGuard by Coverking. It's made out of a thick moving blanket material and will help "soften the blow" from items falling onto and rubbing against your vehicle. It's purely for indoor storage and instances like this. You can view a video of it and more details about the covering, including pricing, at the link below. Please let me know if you have any questions about it.
