Angry Cat Prints

Ok any members here suffer from cat foot prints on there car?

Every few days I find cat prints on the bonnet and roof of my car,.

Any suggestion on deterring them.

The car is parked on my front garden which is paved so no flower beds or grass.

Cheers

I have had this problem recently with the felines belonging to my next door neighbour. Short of strangling the little darlings I cannot thing of a proper solution. You may find one asleep on your bonnet as they like the residual warmth, if you find yourself in this happy position, a well aimed twelve bore will probably do the trick.
Best of luck and don't hit any hapless passers by. Unless they happen to be owners of the feline in question.

None of this is tongue in cheek. I mean every last word.

We have moggies and so do ALL the neighbors and the bonnet of my new P and J has the scratches to prove it! I have invested in a very powerful water pistol.....I wanted to borrow one of the fire tenders with water cannons from the Airport but they said no!

This looks like it might be OK if sighted properly.

For some reason i have a feeling that theses are not allowed to be installed in the front garden, maybe the range would reach the footpath ?

I have emailed a company to ask this question
