Have to agree with Mr. Bill on this one. But have you tried sprinkling Moth Crystals or Moth ***** around the perimeter of the garage or just inside the doors? We have a lot of stay cats around here, and I do Moth ***** and crushed Crystals inside the front garage and I've never had a problem with the cats since then.

I put a small pan of moth ***** under car. Cats don't come around. Other alternative is a small pan of antifreeze.

What really pisses me off is that cat owners leave the cats outside and they **** on/destroy other people's property. I can't tell you how many scratches I get on my truck from cats trying to climb up on a wet vehicle. They also **** in your garden and bury **** on your lawn. You never see it until after you step in it.
Notice to cat owners: You own a cat, keep it in your own yard.
If your cat damages pproperty such as a vehicle, you are responsible for damages.
We have a leash law. You can't put a leash on your cat? Keep it in your house.

That said I do agree that the owners are liable for damage caused by any of their pets.
Here in Vegas there are very few outdoor cats.

I like dogs
Man is this thread filling up fast. Why not just feed them on top of the car. Only the problem cat will eat there. Oh ya, I forgot, use a small dish of rat poison for food.

Why don't you put a litter box in the garage?
When I bought my C3 in Maryland, the guy I bought it from had 3 Vettes. The one I went to look at had side exhaust and there were sneakers in the pipes. Of course I had to ask WHY THE SNEAKERS. He said his cats would climb in the pipes and when he started the car the would fly out the pipes. He also said they likes to sleep in the engine bay, he opened the hood and there was a cat on one of the control arms.
I didn't buy that car but he had a 69' vert that I did buy from him, as I drove away he said "I hope you don't have any of my cats". I had looked under the hood before I left and there were no cats so I merrily drove home.
When I got home I left the car in the driveway so I could work on a friends car. As we were working, the kid nextdoor said there was a CAT under my car. The car rode the 40 miles back with me in the SPARE TIRE CARRIER between the mufflers in back. I called the guys and the 1st thing he said was "You have one of my cats don't you"-he drove out and picked it up.
Guess cats just like Corvettes-hard to fault them for it!!

Plus you always know where the door is! Not to be an A hole, it's there house.
I had my youngest son tried to tell me how to run my house. That when over well.
We live in rural America and have three cats, one of them goes on car,boat rides and even flies with me. Not one of them has ever peed in any of our cars. I think they know that if they do,I'll be wearing them on my feet as slippers. We had a dog that would peed on the wheels every chance he got. ( had).
They do sell stuff to chase animals off your car or any other place that you don't want them in.

Man you owe me my click back and several minutes of reading. That was going to be my suggestion. 
I had one stray at work take a leak right up by the windshield and for almost a year I got that stench whenever I turned on the air. Luckily a Raccoon ripped the cat apart and that's the end of that.

Being sarcastic, of course. I own 3 dogs and 4 cats. Love them all, and spoil them rotten. Just emphasizing some of the rampant ignorance in this thread.
They say serial killers always started out by hating on animals...

I'm not trying to tell my parents how to run their house, I just wanted the cats to live outside of the garage thats all! I didnt whine about it just made the statement to them that the stupid cats peed on my $100car cover and, I dont see why the cats think that thats ok when they have a litter box. I like the cats just fine aslong as they leave my stuff alone. I'm not a spoiled rich kid I have a job,do all the work on the familys cars,mow and weed eat our 8 acre yard by myself,plus go to school and get good grades. Not saying I'm in the real world far from it but I do earn my keep. I dont like being compaired to a serial killer just because I dont like cats by the way
