Suprasteve Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Just had my neighbour complain that my cat has been sharping his claws on the roof of her KA convertable. I didn't know whether to tell him off or give him a treat on a serious note how can i stop him doing it ? he has a scratching post already, which he uses and i gave the lady a water pistol to squart him with but what else can i do?

uk-rich Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 i think there is a spray available, that only cats can smell, they don't like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Vitax "Stay off" and "Scent off" products are available from most DIY stores and garden centres: http://www.vitax.co.uk Oh and prepare yourself for an influx of knob heads suggesting things like shotguns and bear traps *rolls pies* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyW Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I think you should use a shotgun or maybe set a bear trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenauto Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 If thats your cat in your av then I think she should be proud that a talented dancing cat wants to shred his claws on it. Seriously though, I've tried the spray stuff and it definately works kept mine from ripping the hell out of the living room rug. I think I got it from 'Pets at Home' but don't quote me on that.

Kranz Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Orange peel. Cats hate it. Or toothpaste, but smearing that on the Ka would look stupid. Toothpaste it is then!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Of course a real one, cats are not daft:) How about keeping the roof down and leaving a real dog in the car at all times?? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 All of these suggestions are lovely, but lets get down to the nitty gritty Pics of Ka owner (unless she looks like a moose ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Unusually, I have my sensible head on today and was wondering if this thread would have received the same type of posts had the neighbours cat been using the Supra roof as a claw sharpening utility. Somehow, I think not eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow, I think not eh? If a cat had big enough claws to get though the metal roof of my Supra I'd let it do whatever the hell it liked! Normal cats seek fabric / wood etc to stick their claws into, they just like to sit on cars rather than attack them (the stones in their pads scratch though, mine has a few marks but it's only a car) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
