Cats sitting on your bonnet :|
« on: January 24, 2012, 10:04:08 pm »
How do you effectively prevent these from climbing up and sitting on your f**king bonnet?!  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Next doors pest is a repeat offender at this and I'm noticing scratches all over the front of the car after it's enjoyed the warm bonnet  :fighting:
I wouldn't mind as much if they didn't put their claws out to travel down the car to escape once you catch them  :fighting:

What's the best policy here - does the orange peel around the garden trick still deter them?

No friendly approaches will work as I'm allergic to cats unfortunately :grin:

Thanks.
Pete

I had this a lot. I went out and bought the most powerful water gun I could find and kept it loaded by the front door. It soon learnt its lesson.

The top of my wongs are bad and always find pawprints over the bonnet up the screen and along the roof  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Hoping a correction detail gets rid of them or the worst of them at least

I don't know whether I should share the following info  :ashamed:

A friend of mine had A prob with his next door neighbours cat crawling under the front gate and $hi££ing in his flower beds everyday.
His neighbour couldn't really do anything about it, but my mate was getting more and more mad about it.  :evilgrin:

One day we were in the garden having a drink when it strolled past us both and squat down to take a dump  :jumping:

Well he picked up the cat (it was quite a friendly $hit bag and didn't object to being picked up) he went into the kitchen cupboard and grabbed the colmans English mustard.

He got a big dollop on his finger, stood the cat up, lifted its tail, and smeared the yellow gunk on the cats a-hole  :surprised:

The cats was fine......

....for about 3seconds!!! Then it started to lick its backside while running round in circles! Then it began to spit and cough and away it run.....like a bullet!

He then smeared the bottom of the gate post with the mustard as a reminder to the cooking fat not to enter his garden again!

It was quite horrific to witness but,  It really worked  :happy2:

In no way am I condoning this action!  :innocent:

Whenever I think of cats and cars, this comes to mind:


The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
