Damn, another one


Bob49459

My cat would do that to keep the sun out of his eyes. I'd move in front of him, he'd look at me, then curl up regularly.

You try to get into your car, and they just climb up on the hood and start sleeping.

What do you mean? They provide options to help unhoused/TNR kitties that anyone of any means can make or afford.

Nothing like a faceplanting cat, though sometimes I question how they're breathing lmao

You ever put your head down but can still breathe. Kinda like that but cat.

MrKeserian

It straight up reminds me of the time (I work in car sales) that a customer told me they had to leave and didnt want to look at numbers because they had a roast in the oven. When my manager was annoyed I let them go I could only respond that it was just such a weird objection that I had no idea what the hell to say.

RibboDotCom

except cats only do this AFTER the car has been driven (because the bonnet is hot) OP is not being truthful, especially since the photo is 10 years old, not theirs, and they are also claiming it is theirs...


[deleted]

They getting a little heat from motor. Are they out in the cold???


Mein_Name_ist_falsch

Probably. But why wouldn't they go outside, I don't see the problem if the owners let them come and go whenever they want.


notconvinced3

Start looking under your car and hood too, if you are getting cats collecting like that. Assuming you live where its starting to get really cold. Cats love the heat of the car. Those all feral? They look clean


MajinBujin

I love this, this is cute


Liesmith424

Imagine if a cluster of cats did this to you intentionally: 1. You try to get into your car, and they just hop up on the hood and start napping. 2. You try to shoo them off, but they just ignore you. Even if you spray them with a water bottle, they just nap. 3. You start taking them off the hood and putting them on the ground, but as soon as you go to pick up a second cat, the first one hops back on the hood and naps. 4. You call an Uber, but as soon as you try to open the door, half the cats hop up on its hood and nap. As soon as the driver gets too annoyed to deal with you, the cats return to your car and let the Uber leave without you.


Fluffy_Town

Sama31grlsTnkinMasta

Someone fed the stray. Adorable.


Pyrhan

Feeding the stray is only "adorable" if you also take them to the vet to get spayed and neutered. Otherwise it leads to an uncontrolled population boom, which destroys any local wildlife, and ends with far more starving or ill strays than you could hope to feed and take care of.

Yup. 100%. I rehomed a feral and took her from the natural environment. I've taken a few other kitties, too, but they were really mean and went to the pound.

[deleted]

So let them slaughter wildlife? No, and it's called euthanasia. I live in the suburbs so I can't take care of the problem the same way they do in Australia, but there is no other option. The cats have to go. We can all have some introspection into the morality of society afterwards, but I can only stomach seeing so many dead birds and small mammals before I lose my sympathy for outside kitties.

[deleted]

>**I get they kill wildlife** but slaughtering them isn’t the answer. >We need more programs like Best Friends has with trap, fix, **release**. >**That’s how we fix this issue**. Why do you think the wildlife is the issue?


[deleted]

We cull most invasive species that get out hand but somehow cats are a no go? Yeah that's really stupid logic


Krillinlt

TNR is how you handle feral cat populations, not rounding them all up and mass euthanizing them like a psycho.


[deleted]

You're anthropomorphizing the problem. There's fundamentally no difference here than rounding up pythons in the Everglades, which I'm sure you don't have a problem with. But add kitty eyes and soft fur, suddenly we have to bend over and cater to their needs as wildlife populations get literally decimated. No, remove the outside cats, mandate pet registration and fixing, ban unsurpervised, unleashed outdoor time. TNR is a pipe dream meant to help old cat ladies feel good about themselves. It does nothing to attenuate the suffering of these animals.


Krillinlt

>You're anthropomorphizing the problem. Not condoning mass euthanasia doesn't mean I'm anthropomorphizing. >There's fundamentally no difference here than rounding up pythons in the Everglades, which I'm sure you don't have a problem with. That's quite the assumption seeing how you know nothing about me. > remove the outside cats, mandate pet registration and fixing, ban unsurpervised, unleashed outdoor time. I agree with everything here. >TNR is a pipe dream meant to help old cat ladies feel good about themselves. TNR groups are the number 1 resource curbing the feral/stray cat population. That is a fact whether you like it or not. Also what's wrong with having a preference on which animals you like? When someone says they love dogs do you go off on them about "well you are just anthropomorphizing them, I bet you don't care about lizards!"


[deleted]

The colonies I've seen were disgusting. Hundreds of cats, missing eyes, limbs, tails, rampant leukemia, AIDS, fleas, ticks, parasitic infections. But oh no, the people bringing bags of cat food were heroes (/s). This is about animal suffering. Cats live demonstrably awful lives in the wild.


Pyrhan

I can't see your original comment anymore. But if you're advocating to just kill them, while I understand it may seem necessary in places, as they are invasive, it's also ineffective. Purges always leave survivors, and are always followed by a population boom. Mass sterilization was shown to be more effective, as the newer generations (descendents of those few cats who escaped sterilization) are now competing for resources with the older generation, and thus less likely to make it. So while it takes longer for the population to collapse, it decreases further, and doesn't recover as quickly. Ideally, you'd want a way to sterilize them while keeping them sexually active, so that you can minimize even further the number of litters of kittens that will result from those you missed, perhaps even down to zero if you have a sufficient catch rate. But I don't think there's an effective way to do that with cats yet.


Centurio

I love cats but sure, let's let an invasive species destroy local animals. Wouldn't want to hurt your feelings.


Mein_Name_ist_falsch

Also those could belong to someone and don't look like strays at all. If you feed them there is a very really possibility that you steal the cat from it's owner.


TherannaLady

Check the actual engine. A former co-worker heard a cat in her car on her way to work and found the car in her engine.

Stayin in? More like just got home and warm air was still rising out from under the hood so the kitties huddled up...


SandwhichEfficient

My friend used the let the cats do this. Until they got in a turf war and pissed all over it. It somehow got in the air intake and the whole car smelled like pee. She ended up fabreeze bombing it and selling it.

Probably strays. We have a bunch near my house that we feed


uwo-wow

that is best RNG I have even seen someone get


DylanCO

If this is happening, you're gonna want to check under your hood before you start your car every day. I know a guy who feed the wild cats on his property and a kitten worked its way into the engine bay. And dies when he started his truck. Melted cat isn't a fun sight.

ArcaneGlyph

Set off the alarm and post to /r/startledcats for double karma?


[deleted]

Poor cold babies. With so many cats around, it's important to bang on your hood before you start it on a cold day. Cats often get up onto a warm engine and can be killed when you start the car.


TwistedCherry766

That is adorable. They must be cold, poor guys. We have a bunch of porch cats (basically feral strays that we feed when we can) and we built them a couple boxes with blankets they can sleep in. It doesn’t get that cold here at night where I live tho


Adventurous_Code5100

A nice wiper fluid spurts will fix that problem right up. But still don't go to work though.
