Something tells me they don't hang around once you switch 'em on just like cats on cars.

just like cats on cars.
a couple days ago some barn kittens wound up between the grille and radiator, spent the day be-boppin around town with me, when I found them they had eyes like saucers and I had to cut the plastic splash-pan clips to free them!  one is a little bob tailed now :laugh: and they take a wide berth around anything that looks mechanical and big!

That's a sad story shooter.

I had a male tabby that would lay down in front of my Princeton Reverb whenever I would practice. Talk about moral support! I miss that fatso.

We once drive back home from my parents house.  Just under 300 miles, about a 6 hour journey.

Wife woke me at 2 in the morning saying she could hear cats.  Turned out to be 3 farm kittens that had crawled into the engine compartment and were under some plastic trim over the radiator.  They'd ridden all that way.  Got two of them out alive.

Oh and a fox had heard their distress cries and tried to get at them through the wheel arch - wife saw him run away after he'd chewed through the wiring to a front side light that was in his way - bulb/holder/wires stubs lying on the drive!
