 Ms Weibe then noted that she now has a habit of thumping her car before
 she revs it up. My uncle was a fireman and they had BIG engines in those
 trucks. The firemen were real softies and adopted everything in sight.
 They learned to pound the sides of the engines with baseball bats on a regular
 basis to chase the kitties away. (Didn't stop the parrots who moved in from
 defecating on the vehicles though)

PS I have the best way. A beetle is sealed so cats cannot crawl inside.
