If I saw and/or smelled fox pee around a car, I'd walk away too.

Well for $3 it's worth a shot before the big bucks I guess! Thanks for the tip, I hope it works. The parking lot is going to smell like a Fox Bar alley wall after closing time, tonight!

Just be careful with that Fox Pee, kaelaria - with your luck, you'll get a bottle of Fox Pee that came from a female fox in heat and you'll come out in the morning to find a herd of horny, pissed-off male foxes surrounding your MINI. . .THEN you'll wish you had your sonic buzzer repeller thingie. . .

I'm just curious, what all types of urine do they sell for 3 bucks? I'm thinking that might be a nice little at-home business to start up. Can't cost too much to print up "Fox Pee" labels....

Ouch!

Hey kaelaria,
You don't have to own a particular car (yet) to be an enthusiast for it. If you post a thread and someone else here thinks it's silly, be prepared to hear it.
Just as i've seen your nasty responses on here for some time.

Anyway, good luck with your feline problem.
Peace.:smile:

I wonder... Does the instructions that come with "Fox Pee" say to use a 'fair and balanced' amount?

I'm amazed at how complicated the situation seems. Your car is in jepordy of being damaged, even after you've talked with the owner. So, report to animal control. Every city has laws on pets, so you have a REALLY good chance of having one that would protect your car from animals. Call animal control, report the problem and ask them to handle to situation right away.....or if all else fails, just tell your local mofia members of the problem and get the cat wacked. Heck, if I was in the neighborhood I'd take the cat out for you, don't worry, I'd make it look like an accident.

Spot on, tee hee!!!

kaelaria, I sure feel for you. My late, lamented cat, Little Opera, was in love with Wanda and I'd often find her curled up on the bonnet near the windshield. She emitted some acidic secretions which permanently etched and damaged the paint!! WAAAAH!!

It only stopped because she was struck and killed in front of the house. I like the Fox Pee idea! Nice and cheap suggestion to begin with, at least.

I have nothing useful to add, but that hasn't stopped others from chiming in! First, I am impressed - the thread was started this morning and it's already 4 pages (can you tell it's Friday?). Next, it's funny how many times people typed "cat" when they meant "car" and vise versa. "A car jumped on my cat". Regarding the BB gun - you better have good aim, or you'll have more than cat claw scratches to worry about (or is that car claws?). No one should care about their car anymore because: the south got hit by a hurricane; there is world hunger; people are mean to each other in their posts, etc. Some cats like spicey food. Well, who's to say some cats don't enjoy a spray of water or ear-piercing noises? Put tin foil on your car - to prevent scratches?!?! I personally like covering the GQ's car with cat food. Am I a bad person because I still care about my car? If so, give me a sequin (sp?) glove to wear on my right hand, some horribly wrong plastic surgery and cue the music "because I'm bad, I'm bad, sham-on".

Maybe wet the car down after dusk, so that it's still wet in the early morning when the cat comes looking for a place to nap? You'd prolly have some waterspots... /shrug

And Ghetto Princess, hmmm... No firm description in my urban dictionary, but I'd assume it's the royalty variant of Ghetto Fabulous.

I loved this suggestion! A little stinky tuna, baking onto the car in the hot Florida sun....the scratchy cat tongue licking it off....FUN!

**Newsflash** Tidy Cat is giving away a MINI! Oh, the irony!https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=50559

Watch out, tpetro - we've got hoses, fox pee and assorted smelly items, jalapenos, electric mats, ear piercing sonic generators, duct tape, etc.
AND WE'RE NOT AFRAID TO USE THEM!

Fat cats can't jump. There is a transition period when they can almost make it up on the car....this can leave some cat-astrophic scratches.

another option, a little more expensive but VERY effective:

Get 2 large male Pinchers (doberman)
