Cats Can't Drive! Or Can They . .
So at 9:30pm this evening, we get a call from our neighbor across the street. She says that the lights are flashing on the Escort. Immediately I'm thinking either there is some serious electrical issue with the car or the kids got into it a played around, leaving the lights on.
So I go outside to check it out and find our cat sitting in the driver seat of the locked car with the hazard lights turned on. As I open the door, she remains sitting there and just looks at me as if I am invading HER space and lets out a quiet meow. I had to shoe her out of the seat! Our best guess is that she had been in there for at least a couple of hours before turning on the hazards, but I can't help thinking that maybe she was just waiting for me to give her the keys . . :rolleyes: |

I was outside working on a bicycle yesterday when my wife came out with one of the cats and put him on the bicycle. He didn't try to operate any of the controls... |
For those here too young to remember "Toonces the Driving Cat" was a SNL skit that ran in the very early 90's.

Last time I locked a cat in the car, he didn't turn on the flashers, he just peed on the seat. That was a year ago, I'm still trying to get the last of the smell out...

EEEWWWWW. Was that the Geo or the Caddy? I can't imagine what cat urine would do to leather seats.

Had it been the Cad, it would probably be the end of the leather...the front seats are pretty cracked and worn anyway, so I have been thinking about finding some vinyl replacements...pee wouldn't touch that! |
Tanning leather used to be done with urine:

No doubt. I would not bother with even trying. Not only would the smell probably not come out, but you'd smell like it after every time you drove the car.
The first thing I did after I shoed her out was take a good whiff inside. Dodged that bullet - but she'd hold it all day if she had to. On that note, I've never had a cat that wouldn't - so long as they were not used to going in a litter box. Litter boxes train them that it is ok to go inside the house! No thanks!!! |
