Guess it is a good idea to start looking for cats before I start my car.

If you live in an area where there are small animals, it's always a good idea to give the horn a little tap to "alert" these critters before starting your car.

It's also a Shelby GT bumper.

My cat better not try that or she would be in for the shock of her life when I jump in the car trying to make it to my morning train.

Nice cat. Where did you get it? Was it easy to install?

Common hand tools and a can of 9 Lives. They also have a shield to keep hair ***** out of the condenser, but it is sold separately.

Perhaps it can be modded with a relocate kit to install it in the trunk. Then it could be deployed on unsuspecting motorists. Might need another dash light for that feature, tho...hmmmmm...

The "Trunk Cat" isn't available, but it looks as though the "Trunk Monkey" is...

Not trying to upsell stuff but another reason for our new insert.. Yikes - I can't imagine that smells all that good after cooking on the radiator for a few hours !! (Yes, I know it was just sleeping there...)

It beats the racoon that was dancing on my black F350 though the other night... if I had caught that one, definitely would still be picking up pieces of it...
