Default Cat on Cat

How can I prevent my cat walking on my Cat?
She never walks on my Honda, apparently she has Class.
And when I tackle her about it, she just says "look at my snow-white feet".

The paintwork is slippery, sooner or later there'll be claw-scratches all over the bonnet.
<checks to see if wife is looking> Which One Should Go Then?

Paw Marks

Hi Chris,
If you look in the SuperCheap Auto "CAT"-alog, there is a car cover there (extra-large) that is a near perfect fit for an X358.
It fits even better if you remember to fold the mirrors. As mine is LWB, it should fit yours even better.

No more paw-prints!

I have a cover! Cat jumped all over that too, but I didn't mind when it was a "Sunday Driver" kept under cover.

But it She is now my daily driver since I sold the Mercedes.
Why did I sell the Mercedes and keep the Jag? You Know!
So being now a daily driver, a cover is not appropriate.

What to do? You guys are worrying about coolant leaks, suspension bushes, Air Suspension, CAN codes, Valley hoses. I have to worry about kitty.
I do try to look after my car! (just had the transmission oil replaced, why would I do that unless I intended to keep it)

My cover incidentally, is a "felty-type" thing, not intended for direct outdoor exposure (not waterproof)

Might pay to ease into those settings.
Kitty might not appreciate a jump start!
