A cat's liking
I found this while rummaging through documents in my office.
My fiancee made a T-shirt with this on it, for the wife of my ('74 RSR owning) mechanic. We had quite a few laughs about this. I also thought about having it painted on the hood of my 944 Turbo Cup car  Enjoy:  GeorgeK |

Love it!
My cat and his cronies all seem to think that a 3.2 spoiler when the engine is warm is the ideal outdoor bed and one of them keeps trying to sharpen his claws on the tyres.

Our "Luckums" is far too polite to ever do anything so horrible...otherwise she'd have never made it to her teen years. Mice tremble at the mention of her name...

Another arguement for the "no wing no flare" set?
 IN reality, domestic cats are a lot like their wild relatives, prefer the high ground. In our garage, that's Cindy's Ford Ranger. Do have to admit tho...with cats around, I've never suffered any of the mouse nest horror stories I often read. I guess mice also have a good sense of smell, and if they smell cat, they don't like to hang around.

My daily driver doesn't have a wing so mr Gatto found another use for the rubber bumper blocks.

I looked out into the garage the other day and saw little feet marks up and over the car.
Cats are so curious when it comes to anything inside their territory. I looked more closely...and no claw marks...soft feet only...whew! Bob

OK...I don't even have a cat but those are great pictures. That one looked pretty hefty to be balancing on that porsche back bumper.

He's close to ten kilos, he's still the fastest cat in the neighbourhood.

Milu - I believe you. My dogs are a bit afraid of cats. The ones they have come in contact with box them in the head with their paws and then take off running before the dogs know what happened. It is pretty funny.

My cat Chalkie is pretty, but she's not terribly smart. After 8 years of having a Porsche around the place she still hasn't figured out the engine's in the back.
 Have a great New Year folks. |

The local feral cats here are flea ridden muts who loved to sleep on my Cab roof and now want to sleep on the targa roof!.
The hairs are not a problem, but one urinated on the Cab roof- which stained!!!!  That combined with them marking their territory on my anodised Fuchs which also stained!!!! Forced me to sprinkle Cajun Pepper around the 4 wheels!! - Only stopped them for a while A full cover was the only solution Me - I love Cats- just not around the car!

 To repel? Check with pet shops...there are better products than red pepper...kind of stinky, but sprayed on rags, then pinned to your car cover, front back, & sides...should keep 'em away. |

Here is a pic of "Turbo", named after my 930. He loves to ride in the Porsche; stands on the passenger seat with front paws on the dash. We do get some amazing stares !
