My neighbors cat keeps climbing the hood of my car!!
 

Hello all,

As the tittle suggest the neighbors cat keeps climbing the hood of my 370z. I wake up in the morning and see all these paws prints on the hood of my car!! Sometimes I find hair! Like if the cat snuggle with the car. I want that cat off my car lol.

How do you guys suggest I handle the situation?

shoot it lol

You should just get a car cover

The cat likes your car since it's warm, I have a few cats that like to hang around my neighborhood and one even sleeps under my car lol

car cover works. this is why i park mine in the garage.

Attach a car battery to the body of the car...

Lucky you!

My car is too low to get into my garage :owned:

jack hammer help make it work lol

i got a detached 30x30 garage and then a 1 bay attached garage for winter storage :tup:

spray ammonia on the ground around the car. cats hate the smell. it works

Well here is what you do,

Get yourself some sort of weapon BB, Pellet, Pain ball Gun, and shoot the lights of out the cat.

This will solve your issue, and when the neighbors come looking just let them know that you have not seen their precious kitty.

Lol I like some I'd these ideas, the garage I can't. My Nissan Titan is in the garage, since I don't drive it.

I like the paintball gun idea, I have a beast one. Lol I would just hate getting paint on my car.

And the other hard thing is that I haven't actually seen the cat and obviously I don't want to scare him while he's on the hood because he might scratch the car. I think he's going to have to meet the hose.

If you live in the city, chances are that there is an ordinance against letting animals run loose. Dog, cat or horse, doesn't matter.

I had this issue with a neighbor about 10 years ago. It was destroying all the trim on my Mercedes becasue it would slide down the windows and then use it claws to catch itself on the trim. Told her to keep her cat inside or on her property or I would have it picked up. Of course she didn't, so I had the dog (cat?) catcher come out with a trap. First night we caught what's in the photo below. Second night we caught her cat, but she got it out of the trap before animal control got there. Next night, caught it again and animal control picked it up before she got to it. When they arrived, she came out and got into a fight with them. They ended up taking her cat, fining her for all kinds of stuff (including battery on an officer) and she had to go get her cat out of 'jail'. Never saw the cat outside after that.

People say 'Well, it's just a cat. What can it do?'. That cat did about $700 damage to my car (never got the lady to pay) in just a couple of nights (brand new car). I didn't have a garage, so that wasn't an option. And I wasn't going to cover my car every time I pulled in the driveway becasue of an irresponsible pet owner.

BTW-I have a cat (inside only) and a dog (always on a leash), so it's not like I'm some animal hater or anything. I just think people should be responsible for their pets.

First night's catch:

And you'll never train a cat to stay off the hood:

I come outside to my cats sleeping on my cars all the time lol. No damage so I leave them and they don't wander off the property much.

get a break barrel single shot pellet rifle, they can achieve speeds of 1000fps or more. i had a daisy quest that i dropped 7 of the neighbors strays they brought home for getting on my convertible and picking the top. 1 well placed pellet to the head at no more than 60 ft away will drop it instantly.

now though with my Z i have a garage, only had the issue once... well that and left some cat food outside spiked with acetametaphine as they can't process out as much as we can and they OD somewhere else.

i dont want to sound inhumane but i laughed when reading this :bowrofl:

:tup:

Def. would shoot the cat.

I hate cats, but luckily I have a garage.
