Default Need car cover ASAP

Because of the recent 911 purrrrrchase, the 924S is relegated to living outside for awhile, untill we gt our friendly neighbors garagecleaned out enough for her to live in it (or the 911, whichever I wind up driving less)
There is a local cat that is mostly an outdoor cat. It's destroyed my wife's trunk, and I don't want it destroying the 924S' virtually perfect paintwork. Otherwise, if it does, I have a cat-b-que and fed Sam to our neighbor.

What car cover is reccomended?

It's been pretty rainy here lately, and looks like it might continue for awhile. Would like somthinge that is sun-proof, as well.

Fair bang for the buck but not water resistant, Budge #2, I think now with a 5yr warranty. It won't last 5 years but that's when you plunk down another hard earned ~$35 for a new one and send the old in for replacement and get a new back for ready standby.

Repeat as necessary.

OOOP's, wrong response, sorry... What do you guys know about UV anyway?

It;s no the UV I'm afraid of (untill Summer hits, that is) it's the damn cat! I'd get an elecrifid (edit...."elecrifid?? )car cover if I though it would kep him off the car. Many times I've come out to find him perched proudly on my wife's car!

I have a Griots Garage NOAH cover, it fits very well and is great in snow, sun, rain, or whatever.

I'll look into that, thanks. Sort of looking for something that would be "fitted" though.
But happily, Griots is not too far from me.
