    Where can I get a stuffed alsation?

    A cat at my lodgings is obsessed with my car, and no one else's it seems. It may be the colour (plum) or perhaps the shape (Jag), but it isn't the warmth from the engine, as one might expect, because this darned cat tramps all over the roof in the middle of the night long after the engine has cooled.

    He (or she - not sure) even sleeps on the roof, and the other morning, after it had been raining in the night, there were paw prints and small scratches all over the bonnet.

    So anyway, I thought the most practical deterrent would be a large dog in the back, perhaps a blow up or stuffed one. If cats are scared of sheep, I could easily get hold of a blow up sheep, or perhaps a life-sized blow up doll?

    But any other ideas would be welcome.

        Spray it with Lion piss, they steer clear of that.

          That has to be the most elaborate excuse for "specialist" mail-order shopping I've ever heard

          Buy a cover for the car.

            Put some lion tulip on the roof of your car.

                  Trouble is so do I.

                  A couple of years ago the garage servicing my car topped up the windscreen washer tank with an unspeakably vile concoction that smelled just how I imagine lion's piss might, and I practically retched each time I had to use it.

                  So reluctantly, I'd rather have the rampaging cat and proper windscreen washer fluid, that smells like fairy liquid.

                    Visit the museum in Tring, I'm sure they must have some stuffed dogs in there
